What is the difference between knowledge and awareness?
One thing you need to appreciate is that knowledge and awareness enhance each other…
A greatly progressed element of knowledge would require a greatly progressed element of awareness, and vice versa…

Knowledge really depends on long term memory, whereas awareness depends on short term memory…
Knowledge and long term memory are linked as knowledge requires something to be timeless, and based on things that have always been, and always will be…
Awareness depends on short term memory as it involves ascertaining what is happening in the very moment, and based on how things currently relate (to the body or mind)…
I think if you loosely defined the two (knowledge and awareness) you may find that they are incredibly similar, whereas if you look closer and defined things more clearly, you will see the difference…
In closing, it does depend how you define the two…
As awareness can be what Attolia calls “General Understanding”, whereas I have come from the angle of the kind of awareness attributed to taking notice of things…
Knowledge can more closely relate to general understanding than it can to taking notice of things…
I think depending on your definitions, the two can appear closer, or more different…
