    David,

    No I think of the I as the subject of subject-object type consciousness. It
    is created be Consciousness, so to speak, in contradictory identity with the
    object.

    Yes, in relative consciousness. But mystics report of absolute
    consciousness, for example, Franklin Merrell-Wolff's Philosophy of
    Consciousness Without an Object.
