THE SELF WITHIN WAITS FOR YOU

D: You often say, ' the whole world exists not without you, everything depends upon you,' what is there without you? ' etc. is there without you? ' etc.

This is really baffling. The world was there before my birth. It will be there after my death even as it has survived the deaths of so many who once lived as I am living now.

M. Did I ever say that the world is there because of you? But I have put to you the question 'what is there without your Self?' You must know that by the
Self the body, subtle or gross, was not meant.

Besides, the idea is put to you that if you once know the Self in which all the ideas move, not excluding the idea of yourself, of others like yourself and of the world, you can realize the truth that there is a Reality, a supreme Truth which is the Self of all the world you now see, the Self of all the selves, the one Real, which is the Parama Atman, the supreme Eternal as distinguished from the Jiva, the ego-self which is impermanent.

You must not mistake the ego-self or the bodily idea for the Atman.
