Question: The cognitive aspects of self and what belongs to self are different; how can what is self also be what belongs to it? Answer: There are two explanations. One says: Just as within the aggregate of form there are differences between faculties and objects, the body is provisionally taken as self, and the remaining forms are what belongs to it. The second says: Stating that each individual aggregate has the distinctions of one self and three belongings does not mean that the three belongings are the belongings of the self of that very aggregate, but rather that they are the belongings of the self of another aggregate. The latter explanation is correct.
