The immediate temporal field of awareness, protentions in process of being fulfilled or not fulfilled, retentions, fading but also enclosing the phrases of meaning, is all of this to be equated with consciousness, or with being? That it appears this way makes of it no more than a representation, a working theory of your self in time, but none of the terms out of which it is constructed has any immediate existence in its own right. It is a theory, overdetermined by ideas of objectivity and subjectivity inherited from the culture and covering over a mystery untouched by any concepts.
