You can complain because roses have thorns, or you can be grateful that thorn bushes have roses." ~ Tom Wilson

There is no somebody at the place of witnessing.

There is no somebody doing the witnessing.

Witnessing is just there, it just is.

-

The somebodiness is being witnessed by that which is not anything in particular.

The witnessing is not a somebody, it is not a something.

You will not find any object while searching for "I."

Feel into that now.

The somebody that you think you are is just a thought-made idea.

But there is a knowing of that thought which is not anything in particular.

Feel that knowing, "I."

Notice that you are that knowing, "I" alone and nothing else.

-

Exploration of "I" leads one to the recognition of being formless. Of course all forms are made of that and owe their being to that, but that is not limited to, or defined by any form.

That is what Self inquiry mediation is: Relax away from identification with form and realize your formless nature.

Let go of concepts(association of formless being with form) and be as you are.

To know yourself be yourself. To be yourself, let go of taking yourself to be anything in particular.
