The Nature of Experience
Presence provides a kind of support for the lamp object without which it couldn't be. Like the lamp derives its presence from true presence, so anything you are experiencing is present. So if you find an object where you are, just let your eyes glance in an object. Notice the body as well, and there's definitely something present. There's some easiness. This is going right into experience. With the question, what is the nature of this experience? It is I am. It is you. It's existence. It's whatever you are. We call it lamps and chairs and tables and headaches. Whatever is present, it's the one presence appearing as different from itself.
