possibility of defects like being its own locus, as
that has been refuted by accepting it as without a
beginning. Because it is beginningless, it has no
origination. The self-luminous Atman is also self-
awareness. Thus there is superimposition of the ego
on oneness qualified by superimposition of ignorance. :
And on such awareness further qualified by the
superimposed ego there is the suprimposition of the
attributes of the ego like desire, will etc., and of the
atributes of the faculties like lameness, deafness,
impotence etc. Because the faculties are mediate, 21
they are not superimposed on the immediate substan-
tive. Such is the final view.

59. On that (the awareness) so qualified (by the
superimposition of ignorance, the mind, its functions,
the functions of the faculties,) the gross body is superi-
mposed, through its attributes, such as "I am a man";
and not in its true form, "I am the body". That idea
("I am the body") is not directly perceived or known.
On that again, thus (further) qualified are imposed
the attributes of the body such as stoutness and the
like. And on the same thus further qualified are
 
21 The ideas of the faculties or senses are in the forms "
have the eyes ", "I have the ears 99 etc., not as "I am the eye
or "I am the ear". Therefore they are not directly
superimposed on the qualified consciousness but indirectly as
possessions. But the attributes of the faculties are directly
superimposed on the qualified consciousness in the form, "I
am blind", "I am deaf" etc.
