....then the individual who seeks is an illusion, right?
So, this means that what you seek is your own ego death. You're marching yourself toward the gallows. Are you willing to die to know your Self as the Truth?

Yup Yup!
Something about -seeking- Oneness seems a little illusory, doesn't it? How are you to seek out something that you must BE? And, if you must BE the Oneness, why do you have the capacity to try and seek it out?
Paradoxes... Funny little things, aren't they?
Also, I would add that, while I agree that we should be seeking ego death, we should not KILL the ego. Gosh, I'm just full of paradoxes today. My bad!
WHACK! I needed that!

The question is important to tell the definitions of different kind of death.It is true that truth is oneness due to the fact that oneness has no difference between,life and death,profit and loss,friends & enemies,fame & defame but such person says all these classified things depend upon God nor on person. In otherwords,this is ones ego death and in this suitation the person is just equal to God who forgives all his enemies. The second important point namely death is truth in this world and it is only truth in this world. Then why oneness die as death is truth? The death can be classified into two categories,Natural and Un natural deaths. Those who die as un natural death,the soul of such person can not get peace and to die oneself by considering nothing has left for oneself is just like a crime to kill oneself. The natural death comes with the time as history of science says that death will occur at particular place and time and after science has no answer about death. Since death is truth but followers of truth as stated above by questioner follow or wait for the natural death as mentioned and not die unnatuaral death. The oneness dies physically by taking the gift of God but such person remains alive foreever by their work to show the true path to others. In India,there are several well known persons such as Swami Viveka Nand,Paramhans YogaNand ji etc.

Interpretation. all of it comes all the way down to interpretation. it fairly is humorous that there are a number of words that many human beings say extremely usually, yet hardly provide as much as think of what, precisely they propose by utilising them, words like 'love', 'reality', 'good', 'evil', 'God. i could risk a wager that maximum folk think of that they have got a lifelike preserve on what they propose while they say 'reality', yet few do while they say 'God', even much less while they say 'love'. To me, a seeker 'God' is finding for somebody 'extra beneficial', somebody who's at the back of all of it, somebody who could make all of it make experience. specific, and usually somebody who shall we bow all the way down to, 'worship' even. hardly do human beings recognize that hand in hand with this concept you may ought to placed accountability, blame. Such an entity could, certainly, be responsible for each little thing. A seeker after reality has some risk of answering their questions, finally, with out arriving on the top that some outdoors 'stress' or 'being' have been to be responsible for all that has happended right here. this is had to focus on the extreme discriminator, we live in a relative 'Universe', all reality right it relatively is venture to temporal fluctuation, what's 'authentic' now, throughout the time of this 2nd, has no assure of ultimate 'authentic' interior the subsequent. ought to some superceding new 'reality' look then the triumphing 'reality' falls. I do have faith that 'available' previous this realm of the actual there does exist a cosmic state of absolute 'reality', and that this is our exact to aspire to that state. The Rishis stated as the two diverse kinds of 'reality' Vidya, absolute 'Cosmic reality', and Arvidya, relative, temporary reality. I do have faith that once one has found 'Vidya' then you will comprehend that which we've stated as 'God' over limitless millenia. it fairly is no longer a question of 'greatness', you human beings, consistently smitten by utilising length ! ;-)

Arr but mankind is three fold in nature, the mind connects the physical with the astral. The mind moves between these two experiences and allows the oneness to be understood. Know that it becomes darkest in the mind just before one sees the light, can you dream and stay awake?

ego death is laughable.
if you are without an ego, you cease to exist in this plane.
here we have a confusion of western and buddhist ideas.
"ego" is a freudian term and it's freudian definition has no place in a practicing buddhist, hindu, jainist, or sikh. the eastern concept of "ego" is that of a tool to be weld responsibly as well as your means of communicating and expression.
if you were actually successful at killing the ego, you would be killing your means of creating joy and wonder for future generations to enjoy.

I applaud You!
"Illusion is as vast as the ocean"
To die before death, is mans destiny.
To stop the ego in its tracks is the ultimate goal.
This is when the state of "Unity" or "Oneness" with God is achieved. From this point on is when True Prayer and Submission to Gods Will commences.
Cosmic...."The Light of Wisdom", dispels the darkness.
If one has "Wisdom", one can dream and yet remain "Awake".

"What one is seeking is what's causing them to seek". The truth betrays the false, everything is transformed, what was once illusion is now enlightenment. What was exterior is now my own light.
