Yogi: You often say that there are awareness and the object and that later, the awareness becomes the object.

Sayadaw: Yes, because awareness is more important than the object, that’s why we need to stay with the awareness. (And when the mind stays with the awareness, it means that the awareness has become the object).

Because awareness is the mind, if you watch the awareness, you can know everything that is happening in the mind-body process. That’s why we try to stay with the awareness.
