1.35

dehaḥ sthaulyādiyogāc ca sa evātmā na cāparaḥ/

In this school there are four elements, earth, water, fire, and air;
And from these four elements alone is intelligence produced,—
Just like the intoxicating power from kiṇva, &c., mixed together;
Since in "I am fat," "I am lean," these attributes[6] abide in the same subject,
And since fatness, &c., reside only in the body,[7] it alone is the soul and no other,
And such phrases as "my body" are only significant metaphorically.
