Yogi: Yesterday, I experienced a lot of tension and confusion because there were so many things to be aware of and I felt that I was bombarded and the awareness was scattered like flickering lights. And the mind started to think instead.

Sayadaw: When the awareness gets better, we know more objects. If we follow the objects, it becomes confusing.

So, stay with the knowing – just know that you’re aware – then it’s just one object.

The mind already knows what it knows – you don’t have to know the objects separately.
