I believe one needs to be careful with such an approach. It is possible for a person to focus on the awareness aspect of his (or her) being while ignoring a psychological issue that troubles him. When he does such a thing he might believe that he has gained transcendence, but the fact of the matter is that he has only found a way to deny an aspect of mind that he will eventually have to deal with. When he gets around to actually dealing with the aspect of mind that troubles and limits him, he will find that he is more able to tune into the more formless part of himself and experience more divine love than he had before.

My experience is beliefs can be traced to an illusion created by the mind.

I agree.

Neo-Vedanta philosophy can breed attitude of complacency of making people feel they are already there before even getting there. Thus one one does not put in the necessary purification efforts in to to deal with their physical, mental and emotional and spiritual problems that are limiting them. It is a great way of inducing delusion as opposed to eradicating illusion.

Philosophies are as delusional as religions.
