Singapore Q&A 20 November 2022 (43:12-44:04) with Sayadaw U Tejaniya
At home, when people try to be aware, all their activities stop to be aware. For me, I just remind myself if I’m aware while doing what I do, just checking if awareness is present. As such, my activities don’t stop, only the mind changes.
When you get to the point where you become more conscious of the awareness, then you can keep reminding yourself if awareness is still there while doing things, just checking if it is still there.
We’re not asking the awareness to specifically pay attention to anything. We’re just checking if awareness is still around.
