"The real you is your very own Self, the "I" of you as you really are. It is not confined to the body or mind that you now think you are.
Our real Self is like the screen in a cinema show. Your real Self is the changeless screen and the flitting pictures are the world.
The Self of us, the screen, never moves, but all the pictures on the screen do.
When you're looking at the characters on the screen and all the play that goes on, the fires, the floods and bombs don't touch the screen. The fires don't burn it, the floods don't wet it. the bombs don't destroy it.
That screen, like our very own Self, is changeless, and untouchable, perfect.
But superimposed on the Self, as there is superimposed on this screen, is all this action. When you wake up to the fact that this cinema show of our universe is only as solid as a picture show, from that point on, you know world action to be as real as the movies."
