(2) The being with the letters, starting from the five-lettered being, pronounces the letters knowingly for its own purpose. If the being is considered to be made of the five elements, then it cannot pronounce the letters knowingly and with knowledge. Just as a machine made of inert matter cannot pronounce words knowingly, so too the soul is different from the elements.
(3) Existence (birth) - the holding of the body - as long as a permanent soul is not considered, the holding of the body - birth will not be possible.
(4) Analogy - what is seen in one living being is also seen in others. All beings have four cognitions within them: food, fear, sex, and attachment. The functioning of the senses is the same. All this cannot happen without a different soul. If only the physical body is considered, then the analogy will be meaningless. Why is this similarity without a specific reason?
(5-6) Heaven and Hell - Heaven and Hell are famous in the world. If the soul is not considered, then who will go to heaven as a result of virtue and who will go to hell as a result of sin?
(7) Ancestors - If the soul is not considered, then the famous saying that ghosts and spirits come and say that they were your father, etc., will be destroyed, or the worship of ancestors, shraddha, etc., in the world will not be possible if the soul is destroyed.
(8) Stove - If the soul is made of the five elements, then the pot placed on the stove is made of the five elements: earth, water, fire, air, and space. Why is there no knowledge or desire in it?
(1) Dead - The dead body is also made of earth, water, fire, air, and space. Why is there no desire or knowledge in it?
In this way, it is proved by nine examples that the soul is eternal and different from inert matter.
Or, the explanation of the common quality of consciousness should be known in a general way for all opinions. This being is not different from the use of knowledge and the use of vision. This explanation has been given to explain to the disciple following the Nyaya school of thought, because the Nyaya school of thought sometimes accepts the quality and the difference of the quality. This soul is the Lord because it is the preacher of liberation and the means of liberation. This explanation has been given because the words of the liberated omniscient are authoritative.
