"the canvas on which we experience the movie of life", I love this. Awerness is such a hard concept for me to grasp.
Although I understand it intellectully, I feel that my whole spiritual journey has been an attempt at "knowing" awareness.
I say this because I have been on a meditation journey for quite a while, initially to treat OCD, but none the less I still find myself going into autopilot in the worst time leading to deep regret.

You are the awareness, maybe it's our mind that tries to "know it". Reading your comment this video might resonate.

There were times I felt like I was "looking" or wanting to "know" something...which made what I was looking for seem "over there".
Like one of the comments on that video puts quite nicely... 'having not left the house, I was trying to find my way home.'
Only to realise, I was already what I was looking for. 🙏
