Darling, I am here for you.
Darling, I know you are there and it makes me happy.

Darling, I suffer, please help.

--

Perception and our mind. Subject of cognition and object of mind. The mind can be both the observed and the observer.

Three parts acting together. The notion of superposition. Three but one.

The observer
The observed
Consciousness

The third part is the base, the foundation, for the observed. Thay has used the example of a piece of paper. The first two are the right and left side and the third is the paste (the paper itself). The third part has many names - different types of consciousnesses. For example, store consciousness.
