Anvaya vyatirekā bhyāṁ pañcakośa vivekatah, svāt mānaṁ tata uddhṛtya paraṁ brahma prapa dyate (37).  We have to carefully analyse this state of affairs in order to know that the Atman Consciousness is not any of these bodies. None of these five sheaths is to be identified with Pure Consciousness, which is universal. Consciousness is everywhere, as we have already studied. It cannot be located in one place. It has no divisions or fractions; it is infinite by itself. But each of the five bodies is limited, and is the opposite or the contrary of Consciousness, which is all-pervading.

Chapter 3: Preparation for Upanishadic Study -2. Post-16. ====================================================================================== The Atman is not merely a force that causes this impulse of self-identity in things, it is also a consciousness of there being such a self-identity. You are what you are, but not only that; you are also aware that you are what we are. So it exists, and it is also conscious that it exists. Therefore, the Atman is existence, and it is also consciousness. Now, what sort of existence? It is the existence of the fact that it cannot be identified with anything other than itself. This is the characteristic of pure subjectivity. You cannot become somebody else. Rama cannot become Krishna, Krishna cannot become Jesus, Jesus cannot become Thomas, and so on. A partic...
