As I have stated, ignorance apprehends the “I” as being truly existent; it apprehends true existence with reference to the “I,” and the “I” is apprehended upon its basis of designation, the psycho-physical aggregates. If I do in fact truly exist, then I would have to be truly existent among those aggregates. If a truly existent self could be found in the aggregates, then one or more of those aggregates should be this truly existent self. As we consider this possibility, we can ask, “Is the body the self? Is the mind the self?” We can follow an analysis along these lines. Taking on the one hand this truly existent “I,” and on the other hand the aggregates, we can ask whether this truly existent self is identical with the aggregates or whether it is distinct from the aggregates.
