All the Gurus glorified the ‘I’. Thus, it becomes very difficult to discard the ‘I’. Those who have accepted the ‘I-centric teaching refuse to accept anything other than their accepted truth.
Till you hold the Self as the ‘I’, your knowledge remains skin deep.
What is it that appears as the ‘I’ and disappears as the ‘I-less-? It is the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness.
Do not make the mistake of holding the ‘I’ as the Self because it is not permanent. ‘I’ disappears and becomes ‘I’-less.
‘I’ is an illusion, and the ‘I-less-Soul’ is real and eternal. The ‘I-less-Soul ‘appears as ‘I’ and ‘I' disappears as I-less-Soul.
Bhagavad Gita: ~ “The permanent is always there, only the transient ‘I’ comes and goes. (2.18)
The ‘I’ hides the invisible Soul, the Self, which is present in the form of consciousness. The invisible Soul is the cause of the 'I'.
That is why Bhagavad Gita: ~ ‘The permanent (consciousness) is always there, only the transient ‘I’ comes and goes. (2.18)
People think the ‘I’ without the body is the Self. The seeker has to realize that ‘I’ is not the Self, but the witness of the ‘I’ is the true Self, which is eternal.
That is why Ashtavakra Gita 16:10:~ If you desire liberation, but you still say ‘I’, if you feel the Self is the ‘I’, you are not a wise man or a seeker. You are simply a man who suffers.
Remember this:- “The ‘Self’ is not the ‘I’ but the Self is the invisible Soul, the witness of the ‘I’, which comes and goes.
There is nothing to realize other than realizing that you and the world in which you exist are created out of a single stuff, and that single stuff is the invisible Soul, the Self. The invisible Soul is present in the form of consciousness.

Thus, you and the world in which you exist are nothing but consciousness. Thus, by realizing this truth, the invisible Soul becomes free from the cage of the illusory form, time, and space. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar

Sage Sankara said: ~Liberation comes only through the realization that Atman and Brahman are one in no other way.+

The Self is not you, but the Self is the invisible Soul, which is hidden by the illusory form, time, and space. If the Self is the invisible...
