Chapter 15 discusses the various features of the Platonic inner self (soul, psuche), in particular its interiorisation of controlling abstract value and of the master-slave relationship). We then take a detour through linguistics, the history of reflexivity in Greek and Sanskrit, to provide independent evidence for our view of monetisation as a factor in the emergence of the unitary inner self, which is then related to the influence of monetised self-sufficiency on a continuous passage of the Chandogya Upani?ad.
