Hi xexon,

I have a meditation practice in nondual awakening (if you've heard of it). Some of the ideas that came up through my experiences were that:

- There is nothing beyond what is sensed, emoted, or thought.
- There isn't a "true self" that can be sensed.

I've also read about there being an "awareness" that can't be sensed, but is always there, even when not "aware" in the traditional sense. I haven't really "experienced" that myself, only read about it, and it seems contradictory with the experience-driven thoughts above.

I guess I'm just wondering what your thoughts were on these ideas, and that apparent contradiction.
