And to those who insist upon a realized, Absolute knowing of existent, discrete perceivers/experiencers, you can also add "perceiving/experiencing" to that quote.
Thinking, meditating, doing/action, perceiving, experiencing, all arise absent an existent meditator, doer, perceiver, experiencer. Waking up dissolves the imagined existent entity that the seeker takes to be the doer of ALL that stuff.

“The world is like a sheet of paper on which something is typed. The reading and the meaning will vary with the reader, but the paper is the common factor, always present, rarely perceived. When the ribbon is removed, typing leaves no trace on the paper. So is my mind – the impressions keep on coming, but no trace is left.” - Nisargadatta Maharaj

“You will never ever find the answer in the mind. Mind is to grasp things, it cannot comprehend the no-thing.” - Sailor Bob Adamson
“Because thinking appears in awareness like a cloud appears in the sky, realise that thinking is in essence awareness. Understanding this, thinking cannot obscure awareness.” - Sailor Bob Adamson
“Yesterday’s realization is not a bit of good – it is dead, it has lost its vitality. It is useless to try and cling to or hold onto an insight, understanding, or realisation, for only in its movement can ever-fresh and new insights of truth or reality appear.” - Sailor Bob Adamson
“The idea of enlightenment or self-realisation as a one-time event or a lasting and permanent state or experience is an erroneous concept. Understand-ING or know-ING is alive in the immediacy which can never be negated.” - Sailor Bob Adamson

In reality the self is only identical with itself, only one with itself. There is nothing else present with which it could be identical. There are not ‘two things’. It is only a thought that seems to identify the true self, knowing presence or consciousness, with a fragment, a body, thereby seeming to become a separate entity. - Rupert Spira
