The Concept of Matter Is Not Legitimate
Ansgood: What you call a physical experience is a concept that is superimposed on to your experience. There is no actual experience there of a physical object. Have you ever experienced anything independent of consciousness or outside? Has anybody cold? Anybody? Your experience is not the experience of a physical body. It is the experience of sensation, or sensing, hearing, tasting, feeling, touching, smelling. And if we touch the stuff that seeing, hearing, touching, tasting, smells are made of, all that we find there is knowing.
