"jivo brahmaiva naparah"

Sri Ramana Maharshi

A visitor from Sind asked, "It is said the world and the objects that we see are all unreal, like the snake in the rope. It is also stated in other places that the seer and the seen are the same. If the seer and the seen are the same, then how can we say that the seen is unreal?"

M: All that is meant is that the seen regarded as an independent entity, independent of the Self, is unreal. The seen is not different from the seer. What exists is the one Self, not a seer and a seen. The seen regarded as the Self is real.

(Brahman is the only truth, the world is unreal, and there is ultimately no difference between Brahman and individual self)
