所有人生中的困惑和一切不解的大哉問，都跟我們的「覺知」有關，都只是一個跟自己「覺不覺知」有關的問題。而覺知有許多層次。
如果過一種更自在的生活、更不惑的人生，是你嚮往的明確方向，儘早讓自己充分明白「什麼是覺知？什麼是覺知層次？」絕對是個明智之舉！
聽神談【關於什麼是「覺知」？】(完整版)
覺知是一種 「你們可以選擇讓自己生活在其中」的 being(存在) 狀態。它意謂著對此刻當下的覺醒。(Awareness is a state of being in which you may choose to live. It means to be awake to the moment.)
它是關於對真相是什麼(what is so)以及為什麼；對正在發生什麼以及為什麼；對如何能使它不發生以及為什麼；對任何選擇或行為的所有可能性和最有可能的後果，以及什麼使它們成為可能，處於敏銳的觀察(being keenly observant)。
活在覺知中就是不假裝(pretend)你不知道。
記住，我告訴過你，有些人他們知道卻假裝他們不知道。覺知是關於being（處於）覺察，並且覺察到你處於覺察狀態。它是關於being覺知「你處於覺察到你是覺察」的狀態，以及關於being覺知你處於覺察到「你覺察到你處於覺察」的狀態。
覺知有許多層次。
覺知是關於being「覺知你所覺知的層次」，它是關於一旦你覺知這一點，則沒有你無法覺知的覺知層次。
當你活在覺知裡，你不再無意識地做事。你無法那樣做，因為你覺察到你在無意識地做某些事，而那，當然，就表示你是在有意識地做那件事。
當你察知過一個有覺知的生活並不難時，它便不難。覺知會自我滋長。
當你不知道覺知時，那麼，你無法知道它是什麼樣子。你甚至不知道你不知道。你已遺忘了。你真的是知道的，但你已忘了你知道，所以也就跟你完全不知無異。這就是為什麼「憶起」如此重要。
這就是我在這裡所做的。我在這裡是要幫助你們憶起。那就是朋友的用處。
它也是你在別人的生活中所做的，在所有其他人的生命中。你在這裡是來幫助其他人憶起，這是你可能已經遺忘的事情。
一旦你終於獲得憶起，你便被帶回到覺知。一旦你回到了覺知，你就開始變得覺察到你對「你覺察到你是自覺的」的覺知。
覺知是關於注意到這一刻。它是關於停下來、觀看、聆聽、感受、完全地體驗正在發生的。
它是個靜觀(meditation)。覺知將每件事轉成一 種靜觀。洗碗、做愛、剪草、對別人大聲說出一個字，全都變成了一 種靜觀。
我在做什麼？我是如何在做這事的？我為何做這事？當我在做這事時，我being(處於)什麼？
當我做這事時，我為什麼being這(如開心、不滿、感激、不清楚等)狀態？
我現在在體驗什麼？我是如何體驗它的？我為什麼以我體驗它的方式在體驗它？當我在體驗它時，我being什麼？當我體驗它時，我為什麼being這狀態？這其中的任何地方與我正在體驗的有何相關？
這其中的任何地方與其他人對我的體驗有何相關？
覺知是移向「觀察到那沒有覺察的觀察者」的層次(Awareness is moving to the level of the Unobserved Observer.)。你在觀看(watching)你自己。然後你在觀看「你自己在觀看你自己 」；然後你在觀看「你自己在觀看你自己在觀看你自己」；直到最終，沒有人在觀看你觀看你自己。你變成了那「沒有被觀察的觀察者」。
那即「完全的覺知」。(That is Full Awareness.)
它很容易。它並不像它聽起來那麼困難或複雜。它是關於停下來、觀看、聆聽、感受。
它是關於知曉，並且知曉「你是知道的」。它是關於停止假裝。
(It is about knowing, and knowing that you know. It is about endind the pretending.)
此時你是真的在照料（tending）你本分的事了。你在照料你自己。過去，你把「照料你自己」擺在你所做的事情後面。你可以稱那為「假裝」（pretending 註：又是一個神在加深大家印象的文字遊戲。 pre- 是之前；tending 是照料； pretending 是假裝。）。
摘自《與神為友》第19章
Awareness is a state of being in which you may choose to live. It means to be awake to the moment.
It is about being keenly observant about what is so, and why; about what is occurring, and why; about what can cause it not to occur, and why; about all the possible-and the most probable—outcomes of any choice or action, and what makes them possible and probable.
To live in awareness is to not pretend that you do not know.
Remember, I told you that there appear to be those who know, but who pretend that they do not know. Awareness is about being aware, and being aware that you are aware. It is about being aware that you are aware that you are aware, and about being aware that you are aware that you are aware that you are aware.
Awareness has many levels.
Awareness is about being aware of the level of awareness of which you are aware, and it is about being aware that there is no level of awareness of which you cannot be aware, if you are aware of that.
When you live a life of awareness, you no longer do things unconsciously. You cannot, because you are aware that you are doing something unconsciously, and that, of course, means you are doing it consciously.
It is not difficult living a life of awareness when you are aware that it is not difficult. Awareness feeds on itself.
When you are unaware of awareness, then you cannot know what it is like. You do not even know that you do not know. You have forgotten. You really do know, but you have forgotten that you know, and so you might as well not know at all. That is why remembering is so important.
This is what I am here to do. I am here to help you remember. That is what friends are for.
It is what you are doing, too, in the life of another. In the life of all others. You are here to help others remember. This is something you may have forgotten.
Once you have been made to remember, you are brought back to awareness. Once you come back to awareness, you begin to become aware of your awareness, and you are aware that you are aware.
Awareness is about noticing the moment. It is about stopping, looking, listening, feeling, experiencing fully what is happening. It is a meditation. Awareness turns everything into a meditation. Washing dishes. Making love. Cutting the grass. Saying a word out loud to another. All becomes a meditation.
What am I doing? How am I doing this? Why am I doing this? What am I being while I am doing this? Why am I being this while I am doing this?
What am I experiencing right now? How am I experiencing it? Why am I experiencing it the way I am experiencing it? What am I being while I am experiencing it? Why am I being this while I am experiencing it? What does any of this have to do with what I am experiencing? What does any of this have to do with what other people are experiencing of me?
Awareness is moving to the level of the Unobserved Observer. You are watching yourself. And then you are watching yourself watch yourself. And then you are watching yourself watch yourself watching yourself. Finally, there is no one watching you watch yourself. You have become the Unobserved Observer.
That is Full Awareness.
It is easy. It is not as difficult or as complicated as it sounds. It is about stopping, looking, listening, feeling, it is about knowing, and knowing that you know. It is about ending the pretending.
