Why are they different? I thought only one thing chaitanya. Are we talking about dualism here?

 

Devanathanji Please explain.

 

Q: You use the words 'aware' and 'conscious'. Are they not the same?M: Awareness is primordial; it is the original state, beginningless, endless, uncaused, unsupported, without parts, without change. Consciousness is on contact, a reflection against a surface, a state of duality. There can be no consciousness without awareness, but there can be awareness without consciousness, as in deep sleep. Awareness is absolute, consciousness is relative to its content; consciousness is always of something. Consciousness is partial and changeful, awareness is total, changeless, calm and silent. And it is the common matrix of every experience.
