ntending principle, i.e. the individual soul.]
[Footnote 48: If activity could proceed from the body itself,
non-identified with the Self, it would take place in deep sleep also.]
[Footnote 49: I.e. in the absence of the mutual superimposition of the
Self and the Non-Self and their attributes.]
[Footnote 50: The Mima/m/sa, i.e. the enquiry whose aim it is to show
that the embodied Self, i.e. the individual or personal soul is one with
Brahman. This Mima/m/sa being an enquiry into the meaning of the
Vedanta-portions of the Veda, it is also called Vedanta mima/m/sa.]

into Brahman may stand to some antecedent of which it is the effect may
be comprised under the relation of anantarya.]

discontinuance of religious ceremonies (uparati), patience in suffering
(titiksha), attention and concentration of the mind (samadhana), and
faith (/s/raddha).]
