John, can you get at this from a "no self" perspective. I recognize how that's coming from a place that wants another intellectual explanation to try to understand it's way into realization. But there's a part of me that's getting confused hearing you emphasize the "contents of consciousness", rather than the context - "consciousness itself". I get that the ocean includes the waves, but there's something about the waves of experience that swallow/drown me, and I feel it'll continue to till I learn to surf.
What I'm pointing to is the basis of everything, whether we call that the content or the context. And content and context are ultimately not two. That said and per your comment, along the way, it can be experienced as beneficial to make a distinction between what's noticing (the ocean) and what's being noticed (the waves) as a stepping stone to realizing their fundamentally undivided nature.
