Is there awareness without objects to be aware of?

[RedLine]

sounds, thoughts, sensations, etc?

or awareness always need and object to be?

How would you define awareness?

[Gesundheit2]

Some claim that there is (aka idealists), but that's not my experience.

Hard problem of consciousness.

@RedLine Yes. God.

Awareness IS the objects.

Thoughts and sensations are the "raw data", objects are parts of the raw data that has been processed by the mind into objects.

Yes, it can be experienced, the subtle 'sensation' of awareness without thoughts and sensations
