Awareness Quotes
The term “Awareness” means consciousness devoid of ignorance and dualistic fixation. It is the state of knowingness or wakefulness. It means to be “cognizant, conscious, awake, alert, watchful, and vigilant”, adjectives that mean being mindful or heedful of something. Awareness implies knowledge gained through one’s perceptions, and the attitudes of others. Ignorance and obliviousness are the opposites of awareness. To be awake is to be fully conscious of something that you are doing.
