When I see an object there is no will; when its sensations are carried to the brain, there comes the reaction, which says "Do this", or "Do not do this", and this state of the ego-substance is what is called will

Out of Mahat comes universal egoism.

I am neither the mind, nor the intellect, nor the ego, nor the mind-stuff
