AWARENESS AWARE OF ITSELF: 'Awareness is another name for you'.

Shut your eyes. Notice that you are conscious. Watch that consciousness. Every time you notice a thought, turn your attention away from the thought and continue to be aware of your consciousness. Do not watch your thoughts. Watch your consciousness. Consciousness watching consciousness. Awareness aware of awareness itself.

Bhargava: What is awareness and how can one obtain and cultivate it? 

Bhagavan: 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.”
