This is the construction. English Translation of Commentary - Dr. S. Sankaranarayan 16.9 See Coment under 16.12 English Translation of Ramanuja's Sanskrit Commentary 16.9 Holding this view, viz., supporting this view, these men of lost souls do not realise that the self is different from the body. They are of fele understanding, they lack the discernment that the self is to be known as different from the body, because of Its being the knower in the body which is an object of knowledge such as jars etc. These are of cruel deeds viz., they do much harm to everybody; they are born to bring ruin to the world.
