The invisible and unborn Soul, the Self, has nothing to do with your birth, life, death, and the world.
Whether you enjoy life or suffer in this world in which you exist has nothing to do with the invisible Soul, the Self.
From the standpoint of the invisible Soul, the Self, the world in which you exist is merely an illusion.
If the experience of birth, life, death, and the world is an illusion, then enjoyment and suffering are bound to be an illusion.
Thus, Self-realization is necessary to realize that our pleasure and pain within this world are merely an illusion.
When the Self is not you but the Self is the invisible Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness, then it is foolish to relate your experience of birth, life, death, and the world to the Soul, the Self, which is ever nondual.
The world in which we exist is reality only in the domain of the illusory form, time, and space, whereas the invisible Soul, the Self, is unborn, eternal.
,
Self-realization makes the invisible Soul wake up from its sleep of ignorance and remain in its own awareness in the midst of the dualistic illusion or Maya.
It is not you who has ignorance, it is the invisible Soul that has the ignorance, and it is the Soul that has to wake up to reality.
Till you think the Soul is within your body, you will never be able to realize the Advaitic truth, which is hidden by the illusory form, time, and space. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar
