Problematic

The problem is not what you are doing, but the fact that you are not aware that you are doing it.

    Some people are aware and become a greater problem...they become contradictions to their awareness. Any insight on that? (Loving your blog posts!)

    If by "contradictions to their awareness" you mean self-consciousness or the ego commenting on awareness, then you are correct that we will end up creating more problems for ourselves.

    Pure awareness occurs when our observation of reality is without ego--when we observe things as they are, without judgment, without commentary, with total acceptance.

    This state of mind is rather difficult to realize. It takes hard work and a lot of practice.
