In thought and in perception the subject and object are separated and entirely heterogenous, even though in thought the object is taken to be a direct emanation of the subject. In feeling this distinction does not arise, you cannot speak of a subject and an object, rather the experience is the experiencing. If ideal content is added to a feeling then you are identified with that content, whether directly or indirectly by way of a perspective or a parallax. Desire and motive as elements of experience can therefore only arise by way of feeling. The space of all possible feelings is larger and more unexpected, more unknown than the spaces of possible thoughts or perceptions. It seems to have infinite layers of structure as a refraction of thought and image, although in itself feeling has only the dimension of depth. You don't consider adjacency of feelings.
