The world cannot exist without the waking experience
The physical world cannot exist without the waking experience [duality or 'I']. Thus, whatever exists in the physical world is dependent on the Ataman or spirit for its existence. When one realizes the Ataman or spirit as self, then the physical world is mere mirage.
Whole physical existence dependent on formless self
Our whole mental or physical life is dependent on the formless self. The objective awareness is called mind. When there is objective awareness, then there is duality. When there is objective awareness
then we are not aware of the subjective awareness. When there is subjective awareness, then we are unaware of objective awareness.
then we are not aware of the subjective awareness. When there is subjective awareness, then we are unaware of objective awareness.
The subjective awareness is like deep sleep. The non duality is like deep sleep. The deep sleep is unconsciousness of the true self. Consciously becoming aware of the subjective awareness in the midst of experience of duality [waking or 'I'] is wisdom. That is getting tranquility of deep sleep [non dual] experience in the midst action or worldly life is realization of the truth [self].
The feelings and emotions are based on the false self, within the false experience of duality. When man is not the author of his own experience, and he and his experience of the world is mere illusion on the standpoint of the true self, how can he claim authorship of his own experience, which is not his experience in reality?

The belief system [religion] is greatest obstacle in pursuit of truth. It takes some time to assimilate what F.S is saying. Since we all are used to view and judge on the base of form as self and pass our opinion, whereas the truth pursuit is based on the formless base.
