Upstream of the stream of consciousness, what/who is watching who/ what? With the assertion of "I" or "I Am" the stream flows downward.
Without concept of seer or seen/scene, only pure isness, advait without concept of oneness or "not-two, or "life" or a liver of life. Conceptual assertion of "life itself" or beingness, is only beingness with the appearance of concepts of life itself or beingness. Sans concept, life is the notion of what life would be like if such a thing were ever to be. The assertion of the concept of a barren woman's son/daughter is like the wetness of the water in a mirage, or the whereabouts of the events of last night's dream after having awakened.
