It cannot bring about the attainment of His own nature, because it is eternal, nor knowledge of it, because it illumines itself.' From the Anupāya perspective, the two-aspect structure (subject/object, means/goal, ground/grounded) was never truly separate. The reflexivity debate — whether structure is self-grounding (Dignāga), vimarśa-grounded (Abhinavagupta), or groundless (Ñāṇavīra) — operates at the level where separation appears real. Anupāya is the perspective from which the question dissolves.",
