Self
The body is an appearance in the Self. When the body disappears the Self remains as it always was and is. Realisation is the understanding "I am not this body which comes and goes, I am that permanent, unchanging reality in which the body and all else appears".

You are not to understand it by the mind. Just keep quiet.
Let It rise itself. Keep Quiet.
See that no thought touches you for this moment.
And you are here....always here.
~ Papaji
World
This world is a garden, a game, play this divine game very well. See things only as they are but do not possess them or you will be in trouble because even your body is transient.
The next breath is not guaranteed so do what you have to do Now: play well, play wisely, by first finding out who you are. Yoga only, no bhoga, first finish your work, then go to the world with a heart that is dancing. Don't use words for this dance because the game is tricky. Just be silent.
The world is like a tail of a dog, its nature is to curl.
The best you can do is to stay Quiet
and not let anything bother you.
Visitors will come and go, don't interfere with these waves.
Be always empty and let desires dance.
Being asleep in the waking state is
being asleep to desires and aversions.
~ Papaji
You are self
Ramana Maharshi
'Have you seen God?' I asked. 'And if you have, can you enable me to see him? I am willing to pay any price, even my life, but your part of the bargain is that you must show me God.'
'No,' he (Ramana Maharshi) answered. 'I cannot show you God or enable you to see God because God is not an object that can be seen. God is the subject. He is the seer. Don't concern yourself with objects that can be seen. Find out who the seer is.' He also added, 'You alone are God,' as if to rebuke me for looking for a God who was outside and apart from me.
