"The "I" is cast off and yet remains as "I".

Such is the paradox of self realization.

The realized don't see any contradiction in it."  Ramana Maharshi

"I have an ego and it looks similar to the one I dropped, as you say, to achieve nirvana. But then I came back all enlightened and everything, and I needed something to wear. I look around and there's my discarded ego lying there on the floor, so I slip into it and here I am." 

"Enlightenment isn't like graduating high school only to start college, or even finishing college to enter the "real" world.  It's the final graduation.  No more hunt, no more chase, no more battle.  Now you can go out in the world and do whatever you want; learn guitar, jump out of airplanes, write books, tend grapes, whatever."
