One more doubt erupted just now, in the adhyAsa saMbhAvana bhAshya, there is a question :  that the innermost self is not an object, as vedAntin speaks about non-objectness of the self, which is the outside the scope of the notion of 'thou'.  In the reality transfer (anyOnyAdhyAsa) one object only on another object which is right in front of him is possible.  Under these conditions SELF being non-object at all how then can there be reality transfer of objects and their attributes on the inner self which is unobjectifiable ??  for this bhAshyakAra contextually explains,  the inner self is NOT invariably a non-object, for it is an object of the notion that of 'I' (asmat pratyaya gOchara) and the innermost self is known to be evident in immediate experience.  Sri Jaldhar prabhuji might have said that the self is knowable in this line of thinking!!??  Just curious to know further details.

Hari Hari Hari Bol!!!
