Everything, that is every thing, subjectivises you. Being in the field of the other is the most salient example, but the presence of what is taken to an other subject is only what makes this the most obvious. The same effect, a separation from yourself that brings you about is the way you are in your world. This means that you do not possess your own ground, you are in rhetoric and not persuasion, and it is an index of the unawakened condition. Logically, this is only possible for a kind of being that does possess its own ground, since how else could it be projected, but by an odd inner twist whereby it cannot be recognised. To be awakened is then to be immune from subjection, which is the same as being free from any subjectification. This can be mistaken for having no self, but that's not it at all. There is nothing in human reality that demands it be of a subject. This is only of the realm in which you first find yourself. The puzzle is how to emerge from it, and to do so without denying it.
