Hay-Ku of the Day (Consciousness, Conscious Awareness or the Awareness of Being I Am)

In the Absence of
Present Awareness Itself
Can Anything Be?

In the Absence of
Awareness of Being can
Anything Exist?

***

Without Awareness
Being Here in the First Place
Can Anything Be?

Without Awareness
How can anything be said
To have Existence?

Re: "Nothing exists in the absence of your consciousness.  It means our consciousness contains everything."

(From "Everything Is Nothing, the Quintessential Teachings of Sri Nisargadatta" by Mohan Gaitonde.)

Have you ever seen,
Heard, felt or thought anything
Outside Awareness.

Have you ever once
Experienced anything
Without Awareness?

"Have we ever been conscious of anything that was not included in this awareness?"

(Bill Samuel - "Vignettes on Love 1")
