Distinct from the gross body, there is the jiva (the transmigrating spirit) whose form is made of the subtle essence of matter and is therefore imperceptible to the senses, yet which has to be accepted as transmigrating from life to life (providing a form to the pure spirit). When both these bodies, the gross and the subtle, fabricated on the atman by ignorance, are sublated through the awareness of their base - that is the realization of brahman. - From Srimad Bhagavatam

"The very first step in understanding what this is all about is giving up the concept of an active, volitional 'I' as a separate entity and accepting the passive role of perceiving and functioning as a process." - Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
