Detached self-awareness dissociated from known and unknown is true self-knowledge without self. Detached self-awareness is reflecting awareness dissociated from the known and unknown, without self or feeling of being inner self.
Self-Awareness Without Self is Self-Knowledge
You are awareness, the ephemeral natural phenomenon of knowing, arising due to dynamic interaction of your indispensable constituent cause and conditions including but not limited to processes of life, actions and effects of your actions.
As conditions of life mature and improve, awareness reflects and seems detached from known and unknown thus making you self-aware. Self-awareness is phenomenon of reflecting awareness detached from the known and unknown because there is no self. Detached awareness which may also seem like awareness of being aware results into self-knowledge in form of self-awareness.
Through detached self-awareness due to true self knowledge, you can know correctly in the right context without getting influenced by the known or unknown.
Awareness is phenomenon of knowing correctly in the right context, whereas self is belief and feeling of being independent inner self is hallucinatory.
No Self
Like horizon, rainbow or brightness of light, all phenomena are impermanent and empty without constituent cause and conditions. This can be naturally known, verified, validated, proven, applied, demonstrated, and experienced by everyone.
The fact that you are awareness, the phenomenon of knowing due to your indispensable constituent cause and conditions, is as self-evident as the natural truth of pain, disease, old age and death. Whereas the idea of being independent inner eternal self that is judged by supreme creator & controller in the afterlife are poetic imaginations and big lies.
Life can neither be independent of it’s constituent conditions nor exist beyond disintegration of it’s constituent conditions. Life is ephemeral and empty. You cannot exist in any way without your indispensable constituent cause and conditions.
There is no eternal immortal independent inner self independent of it’s constituent cause and conditions. There is no real self based on self-conception, self-ideation or self-identification in form of name, relation, race, class, caste, religion, gender, nationality etc.. Due to self and belief in eternal inner-self, you may live and act self-ignorantly.
As self, you may live rigidly according to self-conception, self-identification or self-ideation disharmoniously and at odds with the reality of cause and conditions. As eternal inner self, you may not value life and waste this life in anticipation of after life.
Self and feeling of being inner self is due to association with known and unknown, whereas detached self-awareness is due to harmoniously integrated processes of life, knowing correctly in the right context, without feeling of being inner-self due to dissociation from known and unknown
Cause of Self-Ignorance is Hypnosis
Ignorance is not knowing correctly in the right context. Self-ignorance is due to self. Self is subliminal stress due to hypnosis through association with the unknown and unknown due to various reasons like survival, adaptation etc.. Maya is ancient Pali word also used for hypnosis.
You Get Hypnotized Due to Association
Hypnosis and de-hypnosis is natural part of growth and maturity just like bonding and weaning. Hypnosis is captivation of attention voluntarily and involuntarily or knowingly and unknowingly due to association with the known or unknown.
You get hypnotized due to association with known and unknown due to some reason, for example, needs, adaptation, desires, fears, aversions, attachments etc.. For example, you get hypnotized by your carers during infancy or you may get hypnotized by some ideology due to association with that ideology out of some kind of self-interest.
You may associate with known and unknown, get hypnotized and may not know correctly in the right context. You may forget that you have been hypnotized, especially if you get hypnotized prematurely at an early age. Due to hypnosis, you may experience and hallucinate what is not there. For example, you may get hypnotized by the pomp and drama of society and give undue importance to it.
Hypnosis can make you ignorant and influence how you live, act and effect.
Self-Ignorance Due to Hypnosis
Due to hypnosis, you lose self-awareness and get hypnotized due to association with self and become self-ignorant.
Hypnotized by pomp and drama of society, you may hallucinate unreal ideas and believe them to be true. For example, you may get hypnotized by ideas and believe yourself to be of some religion, class, caste, race, gender, nationality etc., giving rise to self and self-ignorance. Due to such hypnosis and self-ignorance, you may deviate from your natural human nature to live and act according to artificially conceived self.
Hypnotized by self, you suffer from stress in form of inner-self. Due to hypnosis and self-ignorance, you may believe and hallucinate that you are eternal immortal inner self with past birth, next birth or after life independent of cause and conditions.
You may forget your infancy before formation of mind and self. Forgetfulness increases due to immaturity and stress. Due to forgetfulness, you may not remember that you got hypnotized in the process of adapting with society.
Due to forgetfulness, you may not get dehypnotized and continue to live and act ignorantly under hypnosis. Due to ignorance, you may not know correctly in the right context what is real from unreal, right from wrong, good from bad etc.
Right Meditation for True Self-Knowledge
Hypnosis and de-hypnosis is part of growth, maturity and development just like bonding and weaning is milestone in growth of infant. However, due to wrong growth, upbringing and lifestyle, you may never get dehypnotized and remain self-ignorant. You suffer due to ignorance.
You can truly know yourself through right meditation. Meditation dissociates you from known and unknown, relieves stress of association with known and unknown thus dispelling the self. Without self, you are no longer hypnotized by objects of self-interest.
Without hypnosis you are not self-ignorant, and you know yourself correctly in the right context. Free from self-ignorance, you become self-aware. Self-aware without self is true self-knowledge.
Self-aware, you are aware and detached from known and unknown. Aware and detached from known and unknown, you are not controlled by the effect of the known or unknown.
Meditation is practice of dehypnotizing yourself by withdrawing attention, calming the mind, relaxing the body and maintaining seamlessly clear detached self-awareness.
