According to the revised view of Cārvākas soul is identical with :
body qualified by consciousness
The Cārvāka (Lokāyata) school admits perception alone as a means of knowledge and therefore rejects any soul separate from the body. Consciousness, on this materialist account, arises from the four elements when they combine in a particular way, just as intoxicating power arises from fermented ingredients.
Later Cārvāka thinkers refined the older crude statement that the self is simply the body. In the revised position the self is the living body as characterised by consciousness (caitanya-viśiṣṭa deha), since a corpse is also a body but is not a self.
The four gross elements are only the material out of which the body and consciousness arise. The plain body was the older, cruder formulation. The sense organs were treated as the self by another Cārvāka group, not by the revised view.
body qualified by consciousness option is correct.
