"Aniruddha declares: 'The term “self” refers to consciousness (vijñāna), while “I” denotes the physical body. The arising of consciousness within the body leads to the emergence of [the] notions of “self” and “I,” which collectively constitute the fetter of arrogance and conceit.'"
(Ekottara Āgama, Vol. 7)
【阿那律曰:吾者是神識也,我者是形體之具也;於中起識,生吾、我者,是名為憍慢結也。】
