Awareness Cannot Not Know Itself

A woman asks if we need to be physiologically awake in order to be knowingly the presence of awareness? Rupert replies that it is not necessary to be physiologically awake, because it’s not the body or the mind that knows awareness – it is awareness that knows awareness. And awareness cannot not know itself, in the same way that the sun cannot not illuminate itself. The sun is always illuminating itself. And awareness is eternally aware of itself, even though it is often mixed up with thoughts and perceptions.
