Behind every object, was, who it really is!
We see the world from the perspective of the senses, so when we determine who we are, we include the very fundamental most convincing sense of sight that we see being who we are, our body.
What if the body needed something behind it, i.e. a soul for it to live?
If you are your body, when your body lies lifeless, and your soul hovers with its life, are you still your body?
When a butterfly emerges from its cocoon, was it previously a worm, and if it was how is it a butterfly?
In other words: the first understanding must be that what we see is merely a very very very limited sensory input, the exact wavelength being between 400 to 600 nano-meters, an incredibly tiny tiny amount of what is really out there; hence there is ultraviolet light we cannot see (but bees can), there is x rays and in fact all radio waves being sometimes kilometers wide can be photographed with the right tools.
So even what we see is negligible and the same goes for what we sense through touch.
Do you know you have never really felt anything – amazingly I learnt this in a Mammer Chassidic Jewish Mysticism Discourse that everything we sense is merely a false perception the brain gives us (which is why people who have lost their arm can still get an itch on their arm – boy that must be frustrating!) A psychiatrist sitting next to my Rabbi and I confirmed what every doctor knows, that the brain has a sort of 3D image and makes you think you felt something when in actual fact, just like what you see, hear, and smell is interpreted in the brain and only gets the input of information via the senses of sight ears etc.
So even what we think we can touch is electrical chemical information produced in a manner to provide you with the sensation of touch.
So if we never really touched anything what is the very fabric of what we sense?
God
So everything but everything is really God; just our senses show us an alternative reality, one which must be constantly reconceived through the meditation “There is nothing besides You” Ein Oid Milvadoi beginning with of course your own soul, namely you are only God.
