2.8
dehaḥ sthaulyādiyogāc ca sa evātmā na cāparaḥ /
mama deho 'yam ity uktiḥ saṃbhaved aupacārikī //
and because of its association with fatness and the like, the body alone is the self, and no other. / The statement "this is my body" must be metaphorical.
… and because fatness and the like belong to the body, the body itself is the self and nothing else; the expression "this is my body" is figurative.
