Consciousness is Brahman.
Now, what I have learned and it gives my brain a headache*, lol,

What is this awareness - just awareness, period.
(Forget what you are aware OF, ha!)
Oh my, what an exercise ---as suggested in, "The Direct Means to Eternal Bliss" by Michael Langford -
putting together well-known Eastern talks on this.
* It's just so new for it. Very funny, because it isn't just peacefully being still, exactly -

Prepare yourself for the coming astral journey of death by daily riding in the balloon of God-perception.
Through delusion you are perceiving yourself as a bundle of flesh and bones, which at best is a nest of troubles.
Meditate unceasingly, that you may quickly behold yourself as the Infinite Essence, free from every form of misery. ~Paramahansa's Guru's Guru.
