This post is intended to be taken as an extended koan. Aim to see something in the underlying phenomenology of your mind instead of engaging high-level cognitive machinery.
The main set of skills I have is a specific kind of "Looking" that originates from insight meditation / Vipassanna. Then you could kind of "see" whether your mind is running smoothly, how internal representations are shaped. You can also shine the light of attention and self-love towards them.
Psychedelics and dissociatives can also be helpful especially as one develops meditative skills and meditative experience.
How do you do this reaching deep into underlying shapes though? That's the million dollar question.

Perhaps I should do a post on meditation.
