What is meant by ‘I am awareness alone’? || Acharya Prashant, on Ashtavakra Gita (2018)

कूटस्थं बोधमद्वैतमात्मानं परिभावय ।आभासोऽहं भ्रमं मुक्त्वा भावं बाह्यमथान्तरम् ॥ १-१३॥

kūṭasthaṃ bodhamadvaitamātmānaṃ paribhāvaya ।ābhāso’haṃ bhramaṃ muktvā bhāvaṃ bāhyamathāntaram ॥ 1-13॥

Meditate on this: ‘I am Awareness alone, Unity itself.’Give up the idea that you are separate, a person, that there is within and without.

~ Ashtavakra Gita (Chapter 1, Verse 13)Question: Pranaam Acharya Ji. Ashtavakra says, “I am Awareness alone, Unity itself.” Ashtavakra repeats this verse many times in the whole chapter. This seems like reminding myself of my ‘Awareness’ nature all the time. It can help me attain Liberation.

Please help me understand this.

Acharya Prashant (AP): Ashtavakra says, “I am Awareness alone, Unity itself.” You probably took that the emphasis was on the word ‘Awareness’. The emphasis is actually on ‘alone’. “I am awareness alone.” *(Emphasizing the word ‘alone’). “*I am Awareness alone.” (Again emphasizing the word ‘alone’)
