If something in addition is required, or if something that exists needs to be subtracted then duality prevails: there is a before and an after, a here and a there, a cause and an effect, and what can be done can as easily be undone, is undone as soon as done, doubted as soon as known, known as soon as doubted. In spite of everything this is the way you understand it, that there must be something missing or undone because there you are searching for it! (There, where? Where.) What would it be like to entertain the alternative? Not your knowing but the knowing itself? Every moment of consciousness, whether full or empty, partial, oblique or direct, is reflected back or referenced from a core of knowingness. The moment, the light, the beings in being, phenomenon, event, can only be as it appears known in this knowing with no knower, this life of your life, entirely dark, not itself appearing in any way but as appearance itself (Does that appear?). So where you think you know, your Cartesian centre, is no centre at all; the presumption of a centre is what you call experience, but is no presumption at all, only the abundance of appearing, this unspeakability that is your speaking, body to body, mouth to mouth, breath to breath, light to light, darkness to darkness.
