Bin boli bin bhasha nahi,
Nahi kagaz par ang chadhahi,
Bin pag chale sune bin kana
Binu haath kare karam vidhi Nana
Bin vaani badta badh jogi
Binu jibhya ka sakal ras bhoogi...

The Person doesn't exist. Separation is an illusion.
There was no wave that merged into the ocean. It was always the ocean, only imagining to be something or some-body. The world of people, places and things were imagined to be separate.
Nothing is separate in a dream. The dream script, the dream character and the dreamer belong to the Dreamer.

Saint Tulsidas Ji writes,
Shiva, as Pure Awareness or Consciousness speaks to Parvati, the manifested Person in the world,
"UMA KAHON TUMHE ANUBHAV APNA
RAM BHAJAN SAT JAGAT SAB SAPNA"

"What I can tell you UMA through my own experience, remembering the Holy Name or Ram as in Absolute is the Truth, the rest, the universe, people, places and things are merely a dream".

The waker believes this world is real.
The dreamer sees it as a passing dream.

When we identify the Self as the Person, the world has weight and everything is important and real — every emotion, every event feels solid and absolute.

But when we rest as the Witness, as the Self within, the same world appears like a dream: temporary, shifting, and without the power to bind anything or any act.

The shift is simple:
From being the dream character to recognising the Self as the awareness in which the dream, dream script and the dream character appear and disappear.

In this awakened recognition, life continues,
but loses its grip.

The ordinary sense of “me” is built out of two things:
1. Physiology — the body’s needs, biology, survival impulses
2. Psychology — memories, impressions, likes, dislikes, fears, hopes, conditioning

When Sadhguru says “you are responding either to your physiological or psychological needs,” he means:
Everything the person does — desires, fears, reactions, choices — usually comes from:
The body’s compulsions (hunger, comfort, s*x, safety, hormones)
The mind’s compulsions (identity, belief, trauma, ego, pride, opinions)

These two layers create the illusion of a “self.”
What we normally call “me” is actually a bundle of reactions:
The body pushes us in one way.
The mind pulls us in another. And we respond from those impulses.

We think: “This is who I am.”
But in truth, it is just: biology + memory
chemistry + conditioning patterns + past

When awareness dawns, we see we are not these patterns.

Sadhguru is pointing us toward the GAP where the real Self is found.

When we watch the body’s needs and mind’s reactions as a witness, suddenly we see:
“These are happening in me, but they are not me.”
That is the moment the idea of a separate, conditioned person starts dissolving.

Why this matters spiritually, because as long as we think:
“I am my thoughts,”
“I am my body,”
“I am my reactions,”
we remain trapped in the transactional reality (vyavaharika).

But when we see:
The body is just nature.
The mind is just memory.
The person is just conditioning.
—we begin to sense the Witness, the Sakshi, the I-AM that is untouched.
