We have reached the center of the diagram: the three tips of the inner triangle are occupied by the three first principles of Sāṅkhya. Avyakta — "unmanifest," that is, nature before any differentiation; mahat — "the great," the first movement within it, from which intellect will proceed; ahaṅkāra — "selfhood," literally "I-making," that by which a being separates itself from the rest. This order in Sāṅkhya is strict and deserves attention: selfhood appears third, after the unmanifest and after the great. That is, "I" is not the beginning and not the foundation; it arises in the unfolding, and something already existed before it.
An important conclusion follows from this, and it is a commonplace of all these books: what a person calls himself is not him. Ahaṅkāra is an instrument of separation, useful in life and false in reckoning: it says "I do," whereas it is nature that does. The Gītā says exactly this: "deeds are performed entirely by the guṇas of nature; deluded by selfhood, one thinks 'I do'" (3.27).
Here the Vaiṣṇava side takes a step Sāṅkhya does not take. Having removed the false "I," she finds not impersonality, but another "I" — eternal, small, and belonging to Him; and so the question "who am I" is resolved there not by negation, but by a change of owner: not "I am no one," but "I am His."
