Awareness...

Although awareness is the first way in which we can regard the soul or Overself, the latter is also that which makes awareness possible and hence a sub- or super-conscious thing.

This explains why it is that we do not know our souls, but only our thoughts, our feelings, and our bodies.

It is because we are the soul and hence we are the knower as well as the act of knowing. The eyes see everything outside yet do not see themselves.
