The Self is not you but the Self is the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness.+

Your existence is limited to the domain of form, time, and space. Without the form, time, and space you cease to exist.    

How can you identify Self as you when the Self is not you but the Self is the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness.   

The form, time, and space are a dualistic illusion or Maya. The dualistic illusion or Maya hides the Soul, the Self.   

The Self is not you but the Soul. The Soul does not identify itself as a body because it is ever formless, timeless, and spaceless existence.  

The Soul, the Self is not limited to an individual because it pervades everything and everywhere in the universe. 

The universe is the dualistic illusion or Maya created out of the Soul, the Self, which is present in the form of consciousness.

Remember:~  

The permanent is the Soul, the Self.  You and the world in which you exist are impermanent. 

The Soul, the Self is the formless, timeless, and spaceless existence.   The Soul is the ultimate truth or Brahman or God in truth. 

Consciousness is  God in truth.  God is self-evident. It is not established by extraneous proofs. It is not possible to deny God in truth because God in truth is the very essence of the one who denies God in truth. God in truth is the basis of all kinds of knowledge, presuppositions, and proofs.

The Soul is the witness-consciousness that experiences the action, the actor, and the world of separate things. It is like a light that illuminates everything in a theatre, revealing the master of ceremonies, the guests, and the dancers with complete impartiality. Even when they all depart, the light shines to reveal their absence. 

Remember: ~ 

Those Gurus who speak of the ‘Self is within you are propagating half-baked knowledge made their own cocktail propagated it as nonduality or Advaita. 

The Self is the Soul is the cause of you and the world in which you exist. Your individual experience of birth, life, and the world has nothing to do with the Soul, the Self, because, you and your individual experience of birth, life, and the world is merely an illusion created out of the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness. 

You are not you but the consciousness; your body is not the body but consciousness, the world in which you exist is not the world but consciousness.  

Everything that is known, seen, believed, and experienced by you is nothing but consciousness then what else remains, which is not consciousness.  

There is nothing else to realize other than to realize that consciousness alone is, everything else is merely an illusion created out of consciousness.  

Realizing everything is consciousness, the Advaitic wisdom dawns. A perfect understanding and assimilation of ‘what is what’ leads to Advaitic awareness.

Without the world, in which you exist God alone exists. When God disappears the world, in which you exist appears. 

The world, in which you exist disappears God appears.  Thus, realize the God to be the Soul. 

The Soul is the Self. Thus, the Soul which is present in the form of consciousness is the ultimate truth or Brahman or God in truth. 

If you stick to the ultimate truth, then the world in which you exist is merely an illusion created out of consciousness.  

If you realize this truth you will live in this world but not of this world.  Thus, consciousness alone is real and eternal. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar
