'it is the mind that is aware - if you are witnessing, or "aware" of
the contents of you mind, what part of you is that? There is more
than the mind in each and every one of us'
That is also the mind Molly. The seat of self is in the brain, no
working brain no self. When you look in the mirror you see your own
reflection so it is of course possible to use your eyes to study your
own eyes, why not then use the mind to study the mind? I see no
problems with this at all, indeed what other organ would you use to
study the mind, or for that matter the study of anything?
