Awareness

You are awareness.
Awareness is another name for you.
Since you are awareness
there is no need to attain or cultivate it.
All that you have to do is to give up
being aware of other things, that is of the not-self.
If one gives up being aware of them
then pure awareness alone remains,
and that is the Self.¹

— Ramana Maharishi
