Whatever is believed about the existence or non-existence of an object, these are in fact the qualities of the intellect itself, not of that eternal object (the imperishable Brahman). Therefore, the bondage and liberation that are produced by Maya do not happen in the soul (the sages make it very clear here that bondage or liberation is not for the soul, but for the intellect. The growth in me-thee only gets entangled, the soul So, it is situated in an easy liberated state only).
