The phenomenon is never what it is, it overflows everything that defines it, overflows the totality of what defines it, including every reflection and sublation that can be added to it. The overflowing is itself a kind of phenomenon, or if not exactly a phenomenon since it is a protean cancellation of all attributes and relations, it is an essential component of the space of phenomena, of the core agreement or consent that phenomena appear. As such, although it suggests the idea of the subject as eternally detached witness inside experience, as the impossibility of all relations that is only an illusion of the subject, perhaps the primary of such illusions wherever they arises. If the subject could be pointed to it would be precisely what does not overflow, it would be the unique 'thing' that actually is exactly what it is. It quietly refuses any attribution that would lead to overflowing itself, the infinitely still point that can't be found because it can't be lost.
