Sentience is like the wildfire consciousness lights in the body-mind. Without consciousness, the body-mind may be subtle but not sentient.
Like a paper boat drifting on the lake of brahman, sheer parchment doesn’t do the drenching but the water does. Like the clothes aren’t wearing atman, atman is wearing the clothes.
Such sentience fools one into thinking the body-mind is self-luminous. Although it's true one’s identity is self-luminous, only pure consciousness is truly self-luminous—identify with that.
