   Nothing to explain. The following "does it for 'me'". Re-sonates.   
   "Awakens" in the sense of getting / coaxing / tricking attention from   
   "out there" to "behind the within". To resting there. Thought seems   
   a burden. Maintaining the plates spinning on sticks also known as   
   mind seems exhausting, or at least far too much work for what it's   
   worth. So I "know" something. What does that even mean other than a   
   thought repeats to the point of a sort of "sticky momentum" in that   
   it seemingly persists of its own accord. And yet age is proving   
   there ain't no permanent sticky to it at all. Withdraw attention,   
   and a thought subsides. All of them do.   
      
   Even the thought "I"....   
      
   Deeper. "Behind the within". Re-lax into it. It can't be   
   described. It's no "where" to be found. It simply always am. I am   
   that I am. Collapse back to "that".

   There's nothing to understand. Be as you are. "Beneath" the seeming   
   thought veneer.   
      
   Just.
