“Dharmaḥ viśvasya jagataḥ pratiṣṭhā” (Dharma is the foundation of the universe) — Rig Veda

We live in a world where people are constantly searching— for meaning, for success, for peace. We chase goals, fight inner battles, and often feel... incomplete.

But what if this sense of brokenness isn’t real? What if you were never broken to begin with?What if your pain was just a symptom of forgetting?

This isn’t a philosophical musing. It’s a deep truth I arrived at through decades of living, observing, struggling, and finally awakening. And from that awakening, I built what I call the Universal Truth Visualization Model — a simple yet profound three-layer map of reality inspired by Vedantic wisdom, lived experience, and direct observation of life.

Let me take you on that journey.


The Model: A Map of All Existence

Here is the framework I use to understand everything—from atoms and galaxies to ego, emotions, and enlightenment.


Layer 1 – Infinite Stillness / Pure Consciousness

This is the foundation. Known as Para-Brahman, Sat-Chit-Ananda, or simply God, this layer is the unmanifested, infinite field of pure awareness. It has no shape, no gender, no desire. It just is — silent, eternal, and all-encompassing.

It is the source of everything — but it is not “a thing.” It is consciousness without attributes.

This is where you begin. This is your true Self — unchanged by birth or death.

Layer 2 – Creative Vibration / Dynamic Presence

From the infinite stillness arises a creative pulse — energy, vibration, intention. This is Shakti, the dynamic force of manifestation. Here, the universe starts to stir.

This layer is not matter, but the energy behind all matter — the field of Space, Time, and Gravity. It holds the creative potential for all life, through the dance of opposites:

  • Brahma (Creation)

  • Vishnu (Sustenance)

  • Shiva (Dissolution)

Together, these are not just gods, but cosmic forces, always balancing the universe through Dharma — the eternal cosmic law.


Layer 3 – Manifested Universe / Maya (The Illusion of Separation)

This is the layer where we live most of our waking life. It’s the physical universe: atoms, stars, people, emotions, identities. But here’s the secret — this layer is not the full truth. It’s a projection, much like a shadow is to light.

In this layer, we experience ego, time, pain, comparison, and fear — all caused by the illusion that we are separate, limited beings.

This illusion is what Vedanta calls Maya. And Maya isn’t false — it’s just incomplete.

So Why Do We Feel Broken?

Because we live trapped in Layer 3, cut off from the inner two layers. We believe we are just a body. We believe we are our job title, our caste, our status, our Instagram bio.

But that’s like thinking the foam is the ocean.

Wholeness can never be found in what is temporary. It can only be remembered by returning inward — to the truth of what you already are.


Two Ancient Paths, One Inner Return

To reconnect with your wholeness, our ancestors left us two master keys:

  1. Neti-Neti (“Not this, not that”) — The Path of Inward Disentanglement

    By slowly negating everything you are not—“I am not my body... not my thoughts... not my story...” — you strip down to pure awareness.

    This is the inward descent from Layer 3 to Layer 1.The ego melts. The stories dissolve. Only Presence remains.

  2. Tat Tvam Asi (“You are That”) — The Path of Expansive Unity

    This path doesn't subtract — it embraces. It says: “All of this is also me.”

    You begin to see yourself in the trees, the sky, the silence, the child, the storm.

    You expand from being “someone” to being everything — from ego to cosmic field.

And in that expansion, the illusion of separation disappears.

The Realization: You Are the Full Pattern

Your suffering isn’t proof that you’re broken. It’s a signal — a soul-level reminder that you are living on the surface.

When you touch the stillness within — even for a moment — fear, anxiety, and the ache of not-enoughness start to dissolve.

Because deep down, you realize:

“I am not a part of the universe.I am the entire universe, remembering itself.”

Visualizing the Journey

In my Universal Truth Visualization Model, I depict this journey using three zones:

Layer

State

Role in Reality

Layer 1

Pure Consciousness (God)

Eternal, unchanging witness. The root of all.

Layer 2

Vibrational Energy (Shakti)

Creative impulse, balance of forces. The space of becoming.

Layer 3

Manifested Forms (Maya)

The illusion of separateness. The world we experience.

Every spiritual tradition, every scientific breakthrough, every moment of self-awareness — it all fits within this map.

And worship? Worship is not asking for miracles. It’s an act of remembering — of reconnecting the outer to the inner, the finite to the infinite.


You Were Never Just You

You are not just a father, a mother, a thinker, or a doer.

You are not just flesh, thoughts, or even dreams.

You are the field of consciousness from which all dreams arise. You are the stillness that holds the storm. You are the universe looking at itself through human eyes.

So breathe.

You are whole. You were always whole. And now... you remember.
