Das Zitat wird doch nur im Kontext klar. Der Theravadin Ajahn Sucitto versteht es Reflections: Ajahn Sucitto: July 2012
The awareness that is liberated through such realization is just ‘aññā’ ‘the Knowing.’ It’s a knowing that has no subject, a development based on, but beyond, the mindful knowing and witnessing of what arises. At each stage of Awakening, as places where self-view congregates get freed, there is the Knowing, dispassionate and free from positions. And the Buddha constantly refused to make a self out of that.
A tangle inside, a tangle outside
This generation is entangled in a tangle.
I ask you this, O Gotama
Who can disentangle this tangle…?
Where name-and-form ceases,
Stops without remainder,
And also impingement and perception of form:
It is here this tangle is cut.
S1.23
And to be even more pithy, there’s the conclusion of the brief exchange between the Emperor and Bodhidharma:
‘Then who is this who stands before me?’
‘Your Majesty, I don’t know.’
