Can you notice what doesn't happen?

There is nothing much to say about the screen. Similarly, the subject of the awareness by which experience is known is rather drab, but in terms of spiritual development, turning the attention toward its own origin could be analogous to watching the screen which is constant rather than the illusions of light that flash upon it.

I think you're reaching for your own version of the void.It's a concept that you have to understand on your own.
Not quite there,but you're very close,and that's very good.
