Since for my last question , I did not get a satisfactory answer I am reducing the question to its barebones. What is the difference between 'Witnessing' and 'Mindfulness' from the context of meditation? I mean when I am looking at the sunset without any thoughts in mind and feel a oneness, am I witnessing the sunset or I am being mindful of the eye-consciousness? In the Mahāsatipaṭṭhānasutta MN 10 the word mindfulness is used, can I replace it with the word, 'Witnessing' without changing the meaning?

I am a bit confused about what is the difference between 'witnessing meditation' as taught by Osho, which can be found here , here , and here , and 'silent present moment awareness ' (*page number 11*) as taught by Ajahn Brahm in his book, 'Mindfulness bliss and beyond'. At first, they both seem identical to me, but as I practice with Osho's instructions it's difficult to get to that point He describes. I would appreciate if the commentary is provided along with the answer from practice point of view.
