Yet,in relation to ''jouissance'', as well as being the object of language, ''das Ding'' is the object of desire. It is the lost object which must be continually looked for, the unforgettable Other, the forbidden object of incestuous desire, the mother. The Thing appears to the subject as the Supreme Good, but if the subject trangresses the pleasure principle and attains it, it is experienced as suffering or/and evil because the subject "cannot stand the extreme good that ''das Ding'' may bring on him." It would seem then fortunately that the Thing is usually inaccessible.
