v2.c36.16

If the soul of the Vā. be of the former category (*dravya*), it would be different from the *skandhas* as *vedanā* is from *rūpa*, and is not also all the *skandhas* taken together. Now, in that case it should be either *saṃskṛta* (constituted), or *asaṃskṛta* (unconstituted). It cannot be the latter, for it would make the Vā. hold the *Śāśvata* view, which is heretical.
