He does not consider that "I am seeing under certain condition, and if still . . . I am so much proud of possessing my eyes." This is called foolishness, abodha-jātaḥ. And in the Upaniṣads it is said that, "When God sees, you can see." So your seeing is subordinate to the seeing power of God. Just like yac cakṣur eṣa savitā sakala-grahāṇām. When the God sees by His eyes, the sun, then you can see. As soon as the sun is not there, then where is your power of seeing? So why you are so much proud of seeing? No. That is not possible. In every respect, we are simply dependent on the mercy of God. So why not become directly dependent? That is intelligence. That is intelligence.
