BEING AWARE OF THE AWARENESS

See this content in the original post

Yogi: I’m not sure if I’m aware of the awareness; is it just by being aware of what is going on in the mind or by being aware that seeing or hearing or thinking is happening?

Sayadaw: When you’re thinking and you can recognize that you’re aware of thinking, that is awareness of awareness.

Right now, are you aware that you’re talking to us? And you recognize that you’re aware?

Yogi: Yes.

Sayadaw: That’s the awareness of the awareness.

Yogi: If I recognize that I’m aware of something; that is the awareness of awareness?

Sayadaw: Yes.
