Awareness without wisdom can become mere attention, a practice of observing without insight. But when awareness is combined with wisdom, it becomes a powerful tool for liberation.

We see that our thoughts and emotions are impermanent, that our sense of self is a construction, and that clinging leads to suffering. This insight allows us to let go of attachment and live with greater freedom.
