The one who asks, the one who hears, the one who understands, the jeeva is all atma

 Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar: Objects need me but I don’t need objects. After the first two becomes strong, then three.The car needs me but I don’t need it. This world needs me but I don’t need the world. You don’t have to reject externally but know in your mind. Even your body is anobject. This is subtle. But when this knowledge dawns, there can never be poverty or lack. We keep thinking, ‘We need this and that’. But when we have the dharana that ‘the Divine cares for me and I don’t need anything’, then your needs are taken care of anyway.
