You will never become aware because of what someone says. The words of a teacher or a master can sometimes be a great hindrance to your discovery of yourself in awareness. What an aware person says to you is often felt within the heart and then it goes directly into the imagination. Many spiritual people are aware within their imagination and not actually becoming aware within.
It is both a combination of naivety and a lack of surrendering your attention from the outer world as experienced within your mind to the inner world of your feelings and awareness. You have an idea about awareness but you lack the experience of it in the clarity of consciousness. This is a common experience for all in the beginning.
Over time what you think as being aware becomes an unbearable frustration as you may blame others for your experiences not being as real as you think they should. You may even experience deep doubt and anger at times at the universe for not bending to your will. It is all because you are trying to find the answers in your mind. The mind can only answer in words, ideas, opinions, thoughts and beliefs, but not in awareness.
