"The witness is your leverage in the game. The witness 'me' isn't trying to change any of the other 'me's'. It's not an evaluator or a judge; it's not the superego. It doesn't care about anything. It just observes. 'Hmmm, there she or he is doing that again.' That witness place inside you is your centering device, your rudder.
The witness is part of your soul. It's witnessing your incarnation, this lifetime, from the heart-mind. It's the beginning of discrimination between your soul and your ego, your real Self and your self in the incarnation.
Once you begin to live in this witness place, you begin to shift your identification from the roles and thought forms. As you witness yourself, the process becomes more like watching a movie than being the central character in one."
