The word Awareness is Awareness, and Awareness isn’t (just) the word.
Awareness isn’t even just awareness, especially if I mean reflected awareness or individualized consciousness.
Ordinary consciousness is consciousness, there is no special state of consciousness, only not identifying exclusively with any object in consciousness.
As there is no individual “me” there can be no real “mine”.
Everything is awareness but everything is not in my awareness, except if it’s not in your awareness then for you in what sense does it exist?
Existence and awareness aren’t separate.
No one needs to tell us we exist and no one needs to tell us we are aware.
When we discover we are awareness it’s not discovering we are aware. It is removing our ignorance that there can be two awareness, mine and universal, that existence and awareness are separate, and that I am separate from existence.
We dissuperimpose, through knowledge, our mistaken belief the body is our identity, and recover the immortality of Self-knowledge.
When such knowledge is only available in one state of consciousness, in silence, with a teacher, it does not belong to us, it belongs to that.
When knowledge is assimilated, when the I thought is objectified, we see ourselves as whole and complete – the I thought, the word awareness, the seeking, the stopping seeking – there are no missteps and God makes no mistakes.
Non-dual limitless awareness is beyond perfection and imperfection; imperfection is only a thought, a feeling, a word, in what? In me, Awareness.
