Some Gurus upheld the view that individuality is only the ‘I’-thought manifesting itself in different ways.+

Until you give up the idea of individuality and the world is apart from you. It is impossible to realize the ‘Self’’ the fact that the ‘‘Self’’ is not you but the ‘‘Self’ is the formless, timeless, and spaceless Soul. the Soul is present in the form of consciousness.

You and the world co-exist together and disappear together. Until you think the world is separate from you, it becomes impossible to understand, assimilate and realize the ‘‘Self’’ which is beyond the form, time, and space.

You have to renounce the idea that you are an individual separate from the world, to realize the world in which you exist is created out of single clay. And that clay is the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness. The single clay is the Soul, the innermost ‘Self’.

Realizing the Self is not you but the Self is the Soul is Self-realization.

Remember:~

Some Gurus upheld the view that individuality is only the ‘I’-thought manifesting itself in different ways but they are unaware of the fact that, the individual exists within the dualistic illusion or Maya, which is present in the form of the universe.

The universe is present in the form of the ‘I’. So, their teaching helps only to unfold the unreal nature of the ego, not the whole truth, which is beyond the form, time, and space.

The body and bodily activates, are happening within the illusion is nothing to do with the Soul, the 'Self’.

On the standpoint of the Soul, the “Self’, the universe which is filled with numerous animate and inanimate things, is merely an illusion.

Thus, our body and our life within the universe are merely an illusion created out of single stuff, which consciousness.

Without consciousness, the universe ceases to exist. Without the universe ‘I’ cease to exist. The Soul exists without the ‘I’. The Soul is ever ‘I’-LESS. : ~
