The sensation of existing is found within the subject-object. The subject being "I" the object being whatever the "I" is focusing on - whether that be an objective object (table, bell) or a subjective object (sensation, emotion, thought) one can only focus on one thing at a time. With further experience one should find that the "I" doesn't exist at all, but only the object. That is - the sense of existing is felt only in term of the object in focus. Also, saged.
