Not this, Not this. But at some point one realizes that without
objectivity, subjectivity could not be aware of itself. You are
probably familiar with that Zen story about the fellow who was
enlightened upon hearing a bell ring. Afterwards he explained it
thus: "In the moment of hearing the bell ring, there was no bell,
and there was no "I", there was just the ringing!"
