What we are looking for in Awakening is to find eyes that can see reality. Ears that can hear reality. The only thing that needs to be changed, in any way, is just your perception, Just the filter that the eyes go through. The filter that the ears go through.
Our brains are fabulous tools for seeing things. We can see and imagine crazy unreal things, or we can be very quiet, very still, and see what actually is without naming it. Without interpreting it.
