Awaken: Meditations on Consciousness is a philosophical exploration of consciousness, identity and the nature of the self. It develops the theory of Abstract Duality, which examines how the physical world interacts with the abstract realm of interpretation, meaning, memory and thought.
The book considers how each conscious individual constructs a sense of identity through experience while existing among other people whose perspectives can never be fully accessed. It explores questions of knowledge, language, personal continuity, impermanence, morality, happiness, death and legacy, ultimately asking what it means to live thoughtfully and responsibly while recognising the limits of human understanding.
