Ananta explains that while awareness is the unchanging witness, consciousness is the dynamic aspect that acts as both doer and experiencer. He clarifies that the ego is merely a non-existent belief, incapable of experiencing anything.

✦

The ego is just a belief; a belief has no existence in this realm of appearances.

Consciousness is the light in which all play happens; it is both the projector and the screen.

Awareness is the unmoving witness, untouched by the waking, dream, or sleep states.
