What happens when I try to instill the remembrance of witnessing?

outcome
"Witnessing is not something to be instilled; it is the sun hidden behind the clouds of the mind, waiting for you to remember and let its light shine through."
According to Osho, you cannot 'instill' witnessing—it already is. The mind’s sleep merely covers it, like clouds veil the sun or a hand cups a candle. When you remember to witness, the covering thins; identification with the prison loosens, and awareness again spreads its light—regaining its dance, joy, beauty, and vast freedom.
You’re already the light; remembering to watch just removes the clouds of thinking so your light shines again.
