पारंपरिक भाष्य
This Self (Atman) is destitute of the six types of transformation or BhavaVikaras such as birth, existence, growth, transformation, decline and death. As It is indivisible (Akhanda). It does not diminish in size. It neither grows nor does It decline. It is ever the same. Birth and death are for the physical body only. Birth and death cannot touch the immortal, allpervading Self.
