- (2) thinking that one is superior to others, when actually one is equal to them;
- (3) boasting of one's superiority over others and belittling them;
- (4) thinking that one's life, a temporary union of the five components, is permanent;
- (5) thinking that one has attained enlightenment when in fact one has not;
