I don’t think people really understand what being “self-aware” means, nor what it implies about the reality you’re experiencing. Every moment of becoming “self-aware” is a moment of “Death.” Being self-aware means you’re a ghost haunting your body, disguised as a future memory that pretends not to know what’s going to happen next.
It’s impossible for humans to focus on two things at once. So, if your body is interacting with the world while, simultaneously, what you imagine is your mind is determining the reason behind every action, you’re not actually performing those actions, merely observing the actions of a past being you’ve recreated in your mind.
To be truly present means truly experiencing Life without thought. To be stuck in thoughts of the past or future means pretending you’re the person you’re watching on the television screen.
