The ‘I’ is merely an illusion.++****

The ‘I’ is merely an illusion. The ‘illusion ceases to exist without the soul, which is present in the form of consciousness because the illusion is created out of consciousness. 

Deeper self-search reveals the fact that: ~ If ‘I’ is here then the mind is here. If the mind is here, then the universe is here. If the universe is here, then the waking experience is here. If the waking experience is present, then you are present. 

Without the ‘I’, the mind ceases to exist. Without the mind, the universe ceases to exist. Without the universe, the waking experience ceases to exist. Without the waking experience, you cease to exist. 

The ‘I’ or the mind, or the universe or the waking experience ceases to exist without the soul, which is present in the form of the consciousness. Thus, everything is consciousness. Consciousness alone is real and all else is merely an illusion. : ~Santthosh Kumaar

  Lily Fdz in all experience the "I" is, so how is possible the so-called enlightenment?

  Santthosh Kumaar First the seeker has to realize the fact that, the ‘I’ is not the self. And ‘I’ is not limited to the physical entity but ‘I’ is the whole universe. The universe appears as waking or dream (duality) and disappears as deep sleep (nonduality). There is no ‘I’ in deep sleep. 

  
  
• If ‘I’ is there then the mind is there. If the mind is there then the universe is there. And the universe is present only when waking or dream is present. 
• 
  

  The seeker has to realize ‘what is it that becomes ‘I’ (waking or dream)? and ‘what is it that becomes ‘I –LESS’ (deep sleep)? to realize the three states are made of single stuff. That single stuff is the soul, which is present in the form of consciousness. 
• The knowledge of the single stuff leads to Self-awareness in the midst of the duality (waking experience). in Self-awareness, the formless soul remains on its own in the midst of the duality (experience).

  Santthosh Kumaar Enlightenment is the soul waking up from the sleep of ignorance, and remaining in its own awareness in the midst of the diversity. There is unity in diversity when the soul remains in its own awareness. 

  
  
• Enlightenment is freedom from experiencing the illusion (duality or the universe or waking) as a reality.  Enlightenment is soulcentric Gnana. 
• 
  

  Enlightenment happens when the soul, the innermost self, witnesses the whole universe in which you exist. On the non-dualistic perspective, you and your experience of the universe are made of the same stuff. That stuff is the soul, which is present in the form of consciousness. Thus, the Soul or consciousness is the ultimate truth or Brahman.
