The individual self is said to imitate the Highest Light, who is the subtle Akasa (ether of the subtle kind). Therefore the individual self is not the Akasa of the subtle kind in question. Consider the scriptural text 'There he approaches Him eating, playing and rejoicing' (Chand. VIII-12-3). It is stated here that, having approached Him, he imitates Him in acting as he desires.
22. Api smaryate
The same is declared by smrti also.
It is stated in the Smrti thus-' Those who, resort to this knowledge and attain the possession of qualities that characterise Me, are neither born at the time of creation, nor hurt at the time of dissolution' (Bh. Gita XIV -2).
PRAMITADHIKARANA 6
23. S'abdadeva pramitah
The measured one is the highest Self, because of the term itself.
