The blessings of Suchness
Dear Friends, I’ve been a bit busy, too, over the last weeks, but I’d like you to know that I’ve been contemplating the subject-object dance, nevertheless. In response to a recent post by Jack, I went through the books and … Continue reading
Transcendence of Paintings
Excuse the pun in the title of this post; I couldn’t pass it up. David’s description is very good. I am of course most interested in the later description, where the painting paints itself, and process takes over. This is … Continue reading
Looking back toward Week 8
I never really commented on your postings for Week 8. Here are a few observations, before the chance disappears entirely. Â David in one of his posts writes of “the object understanding itself.” quote KTS. It is perhaps worth noting that … Continue reading

Week 9: TSK Ex. 26: Transcendence
First: The description of your process, David, of pointing by painting is helpful for me. With Ex. TSK 26 I again (like in earlier times) have come to a dead end. ‘I am mind; these are thoughts; that is a … Continue reading

Week 8, Ex.TSK 25: Intimacy
….’the objects and outside-standers that make appearance meaningful.’ (P.189).There are difficults with doing this exercise. I can see my thoughts about things – but seeing the things themselves? Do I know, how things themselves are? Do I know, when i’m … Continue reading
Week 8: Intimacy, erecting sheltering walls
Thank you, Jack, for your advice and your suggestions in your post. They help to understand and to look at special points. Changes: A story: I had a young dog. In my garden lied half a ball, filled with water … Continue reading
Week 8, TSK Ex. 25 – Intimacy
I found an interesting example, on a simple scale, of what happens (as the passage from KTS pp. 423-4 describes) when subject and distance dissolve in intimacy and the object understands itself: “As the act of knowing unfolds, the image … Continue reading
Distance and Intimacy
I like the image in the reading (p. 93) of VOK of consciousness “erecting sheltering walls.” Experientially it raises at least two questions: 1) can we discover those walls in our own experience; 2) what are we sheltering (protecting) against. … Continue reading
