If all experience is experience-of then the notion of a subject is an inference from the given structure of experience, and so is secondary to objectivity. This is certainly the case of the subject that is sought. Can you then assert that there is seeking? That there is experiencing? Without flipping the whole thing over into the priority of the subjective pole? The mirror image of the same question. There cannot be an object without a subject doing it, there cannot be a subject without the doing of an object. Why doing? What is the reality that is never an object? What kind of discrimination can pull these apart? Not one that is modeled on experience. Something else then? The thing vanishes in smoke time and time again, but just as surely reappears. What is behind these intuitions? Why can they never be reasoned out?
