“Even granting that the reflected image really exists in the different places,—there can be no plurality of these images, because they are all apprehended by the same cognition.”—[Ślokavārtika—eternality of words—190-191].—(2225)

Kamalaśīla

Even granting that the Reflected Image is something different, produced in the reflecting medium, the Mīmāṃsaka, offers another explanation;—[see verse 2225 above]

Even if the Reflected Image is something different, these images cannot be several;—why?—because they are apprehended by the same Cognition—i.e. they all fall within the same idea.

In the same way, the Word-Sound also becomes established as one,—because it is apprehended by a single Idea.—(2225)
