The experiencing is without boundaries but experience is a fantastic play of distinctions. It is not a question of the binding of diverse experiences into a single field, but of the way that the field differentiates endlessly in ever greater detail, infinitely, fractally - because attention is included in it and every movement of attention gives rise to fresh experiences. It is a mistake to think that there is something like this outside of this, that experiences have their own intrinsic nature and may be taken up or not, or may lie wholly out of reach. That's the way it looks, the way it is made to look by a peculiar inner bias, but the seen is only the seeing and the seeing is nothing like the seen. The only thing in experience that is 'like' the experiencing is the infinite and effortless play of distinctions, the free and lawless distinguishing which is mistaken again and again for the distinguished.
