There is no such thing as the ‘I’ because ‘I’ is an illusion created out of the Soul, the Self, which is present in the form of the consciousness.+

There is no such thing as the ‘I’ because ‘I’ is an illusion created out of the Soul, the Self, which is present in the form of consciousness.

Remember:~

If the ‘I’ is an illusion the mind is bound to be an illusion because the ‘I’ is the mind itself.

If the mind is an illusion then the form, time, and space are bound to be an illusion because the form, time, and space together is the mind. 

If form, time, and space are an illusion then the universe is an illusion because the universe ceases to exist without form, time, and space.

If the universe is an illusion then the waking experience is bound to be an illusion because the universe appears as the waking experience.

If the waking experience is an illusion then the individual experience of the birth, life, death, and the world is an illusion because the individual experience of the birth, life, death, and the world is present only in waking experience.

Remember:~

 If ‘I’ is absent then the illusion is absent.

 If the ‘I’ is absent then the mind is absent.

 If the ‘I’ is absent then the form, time, and space are absent.

If the ‘I’ is absent then the universe is absent.

If if the ‘I’ is absent then the waking is absent.

If the ‘I’ is absent then the individual experience of birth, life, death, and the world is absent.

If the ‘I’ is absent then the Soul, the Self is present as formless, timeless, and spaceless existence.

What is the use of sticking to the ‘I’, which is the dualistic illusion?

As the seeker's understanding of ‘what is what ‘grows, gradually the seeker gets a glimpse of truth. Whatever is based on the waking entity is falsehood and whatever is based on the formless Soul, the  Self is real and eternal. 

Thus it is necessary for the seeker of truth to make sure the waking entity (ego) is not the Self but the Self is formless Soul in order to acquire Self-knowledge. ~ Santthosh Kumaar
