The idea that you are a person, who goes places, is based on the belief that there is an objective world, and that you are something in that world.
The idea that there is an objective world, is based upon the belief that there could be something that you're not aware of.
The idea that there could be something you're not aware of is based on the belief that "awareness" is more than just another word for "experience."
In other words it's based in the idea that "knowing" is, in some way, separate from, other than, or different to, "known."
But can you find a border where thought stops, and the knowing of it starts?
Can you find a border where experience stops, and awareness of it starts?
It's only thought which says that people are aware of what they say and do.
And thought is not aware of anything.
