Thus, holding the birth entity as self and holding the world as reality leads one to imaginary hallucination based on false self

The soul, the innermost self does not exist in this world as an entity or identity but it exists as the formless substance and witness of the three states.

Formless Soul, the innermost self is beyond three states and hence it does not exist in the world as an entity and identity. Everything and every body in the waking and dream are created out of soul(consciousness or spirit). 

A Gnani expounds the spiritual knowledge that benefits all. Seekers can be benefited by taking him as a guide only through personal discussions.

The soul alone gives rise to the waking experience. The man and his experience of the world are present within the waking experience. The individual experiences such as birth, life and death, pleasure and pain are happenings within the waking experience. The waking entity is not the self. The waking entity or ego is the false self within the false experience.  

The one, which is aware of the three states, is the soul. Thus, the soul is the true self, which is in the form of spirit or consciousness. On the standpoint of the soul as self all, the three states are falsehood. Thus, holding the birth entity as self and holding the world as reality leads one to imaginary hallucination based on false self.  Therefore, it is necessary to realize the fact that, the true self is the soul, in order to realize the waking experience is mere mirage created out of soul (consciousness or spirit). 

The religion, yoga and the entire theoretical are based on the birth entity and they limit the soul to the physical entity, whereas the soul pervades all the three states as their formless substance and witness.   When one realizes the fact that the formless substance and witness is the  formless soul(consciousness or spirit), then there will be unity in diversity.
