Who am I?

The gross body which is composed of the seven humours (dhatus), I am not; the five cognitive

sense organs, viz. the senses of hearing, touch, sight, taste, and smell, which apprehend their

respective objects, viz. sound, touch, colour, taste, and odour, I am not; the five cognitive sense-

organs, viz. the organs of speech, locomotion, grasping, excretion, and procreation, which have as 

their respective functions speaking, moving, grasping, excreting, and enjoying, I am not; the five 

vital airs, prana, etc., which perform respectively the five functions of in-breathing, etc., I am not;

even the mind which thinks, I am not; the nescience too, which is endowed only with the residual

impressions of objects, and in which there are no objects and no functioning’s, I am not.
