Read the excerpt from "The Catch.” As Rohan, the youngest of the elf competitors arrived at the eastern foothills where the Fell Race would begin, he marveled at the majestic peaks that towered above him. I’ve never seen these mountains so close, he thought.

"It’s quite a sight for us elves, who live our lives in the flatlands,” answered Lewess, his muscular friend. Using their gift to read each other’s thoughts, Lewess gave his partner a hearty reminder, But don’t let yourself be so impressed by the beauty of the mountains that you forget our purpose for being here.

Which statement best describes Lewess’s viewpoint in this excerpt?

He is amazed by the stunning scenery.
He is irritated by Rohan’s inexperience.
He wants Rohan to concentrate on the race.
He wishes they did not have to leave the flatlands.

atman means 'eternal self'. the atman refers to the real self beyond ego or false self. it is often referred to as 'spirit' or 'soul' and indicates our true self or essence which underlies our existence.

there are many interesting perspectives on the self in hinduism ranging from the self as eternal servant of god to the self as being identified with god. the understanding of the self as eternal supports the idea of reincarnation in that the same eternal being can inhabit temporary bodies.

the idea of atman entails the idea of the self as a spiritual rather than material being and thus there is a strong dimension of hinduism which emphasises detachment from the material world and promotes practices such as asceticism. thus it could be said that in this world, a spiritual being, the atman, has a human experience rather than a human being having a spiritual experience.
