 Śrīharṣa’s reflexivism poses a challenge: How can a conscious mental occurrence constitute awareness of itself? According to a simple notion of intentionality, the object of an awareness-episode is always distinct from the awareness-episode. But if this view is correct, then conscious mental occurrences cannot be self-intimating. For if conscious mental occurrences were self-intimating, then awareness-episodes wouldn’t be distinct from their own objects.
