|| KNOW THY SELF ||

Talking of the witness should not lead to the idea that there is a witness and something else apart from him that he is witnessing.

The witness really means the light that illumines the seer, the seen, and the process of seeing.

Before, during, and after the triads of seer, seen, and seeing, the illumination exists. It alone exists always.

- Ramana Maharshi

There is no one standing apart watching life go by like a spectator.

There is only the light in which the watcher, the watched, and the watching itself all appear.

That light was already there before the seer, the seen, and the seeing arose.

It remains all through their existence, and it remains unmoved even after they dissolve.

You are not the witness standing outside experience.

"There is neither past nor future. There is only the present.

Yesterday was the present to you when you experienced it, and tomorrow will be also the present when you experience it.

Therefore, experience takes place only in the present, and beyond experience nothing exists."

"Since past and future have never been without the present, to know the Eternal Now is to know the Truth" - Ramana Maharshi

"The future is a concept—it doesn't exist. There is no future. There is no past. There is only the eternal now." — Alan Watts 

"The eternal present is the space within which your whole life unfolds, the one factor that remains constant." — Eckhart Tolle 

From Objects to Awareness alone.

Consider the current experience, the first person experience and notice any object..

Step 1:- Objects only

There are flowers.

Step 2:- Awareness Of Objects.

I am aware of flowers.

Step 3:- Objects Of Awareness.

The flowers appear to my awareness.

Step 4:- Objects In Awareness.

The flowers are in my awareness.

Step 5:- Objects As Awareness.

Awareness appears as the flowers.

Step 6:- Awareness Alone.

Flowers are not a separate reality from awareness. They are just names given to forms of awareness.

Only Awareness Is.

One Without A Second.

Whatever you aware of, you are not it. You are that which is aware.

Awareness itself - One without a second.

Key pointers:-

1. You cannot practise being Awareness. You are it, here and now.

2. Remember:- Whatever I am aware of, that I am not.

3. Keep it real.

You Were Never Born & You Never Die
