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 and unborn Soul, then: ~
Where is the yogi? Where are his chakras? Where is the world in which he exists? Where is the divine light? Where is the divine sound? Where is the divine vibration? What needs us there to say more? Noting from the Soul because whatever seems to emanate from it is non-different from itself.
There is no second thing other than the invisible Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness. One should not mistake the invisible Soul, the Self, for the ‘I’.
Those who assert the world is a reality are still in the elementary stages of the preliminary analysis. The world is a reality within the waking experience, but the waking experience is merely an illusion. Similarly, the dream world was a reality within the dream experience. The dream became unreal when the waking took place. In the same way, the waking becomes unreal when Advaitic wisdom dawns. :
The Self is not you, but the Self is the invisible Soul. Yoga is based on you. You are the false self within the false experience.
The invisible Soul is the Self. The invisible Soul is present in the form of consciousness. If the Self is not you, then what is the use of arguing about yoga, which is based on the false self (you) within the false experience (waking)?
Sage Sankara said: -Neither by the practice of yoga nor philosophy, nor by good works nor by learning, does liberation come, but only through the realization that Atman and Brahman are one in no other way. (1) VivekaChudamani v 56, pg 25
Those who have a firm conviction that yoga is final, then they must continue with the yogic pursuit. The path of wisdom is not for those who believe the Self is within their body.
The Self is not within their body, but the Self is the invisible Soul hidden by the illusory world in which they exist.
The invisible Soul is the Self. The invisible Soul is present in the form of consciousness. Consciousness is one and undifferentiated. The dual and non-dual experiences (waking or dream (duality) and deep sleep (nonduality)) are merely an illusion created out of consciousness.

In Self-awareness, the invisible Soul withdraws the three states into itself and remains in its awareness in the midst of the dualistic illusion or Maya. The Soul is indeed the Self —luminous. : : ~  Santthosh Kumaar
