If you try to say what it is that is going on here you might answer by detailing the flux of sensations and thoughts, the overlapping intentions and purposes that take up most of attention most of the time. The real question however is what makes it perceived or known, or how it comes about. This question is recognised but impossible to formulate in a definitive manner because words become vague when used to point towards the experiencing. Objectivities are equal to themselves and so they seem to characterise being as what is subject to the law of identity. The experiencing has none of the attributes of being, it does not equal itself, has no identity, but only confers identity. A certain mundane prejudice takes it for a ghostly thing, somehow guilty of not quite existing, and it is this prejudice that needs to be turned on its head. However the experiencing may or may not be, however its mode, it is primary. The naivest gaze can see that everything is in its gift, and that apart from it being is only a marvelous idea and a sheer joy at being given.
