The Real Perceiver

If you look out with your eyes you have a field of vision. If you actually look at what you see as a field, and not as separate objects, you see a nondual scene. It is easily observed that your body is in the field, and part of the field. The only thing that is not in the field is Awareness. 

It is easy to know that the eyes are seeing the field, that the brain is interpreting the field. But is it easy to realize that awareness is the perceiver?  

Two people purveying the scene will have different thoughts or feelings about the scene, but the awareness is the same in both observers. 

Awareness is simple, non judgmental, always available. Awareness is the real perceiver, not the eyes, not the personal you. You are That Awareness. It is the real you.
