Note 1 — Chapter XXIX · Sermon on Holy Meditation.

Note.—The logical term pratiyogi vyava-cheda is explained as pratiyogi nirúpaka vyávrithi, which means that egoism being an abstract term, does not point out any particular person or thing, and the ego being a discrete word conveys no sense of a concrete noun. Moreover it is indeterminate and signifies no determinate number, nor is it predicated by any of the predicables which is not applicable to it.
