"claim_text": "Consciousness (viññāṇa) is the presence of a phenomenon, and that presence is reflexively given. 'There is eye-consciousness — eye-consciousness is present reflexively.' Consciousness is not an entity or thing that requires an added property (vimarśa) to be sentient. It is the presence-of-phenomena, and presence as such is inherently reflexive. The immediate/reflexive presence distinction shows that reflexivity is built into the structure of experience, not added by a separate principle.",
