What is consciousness? Where does it exist and reside? Has it got, or does it possess different states of itself?
Is it correct that consciousness only exists in the moment of now? Anything outside of now is unconsciousness. To be more conscious, and to embrace a fuller consciousness then, would only occur the more that we stay in the now.
Are these idea correct, or not?
In this article, I will explore what consciousness is, and what it means to our existence, and our lives as human beings, and as the greater spiritual souls, that I believe we really all are, as well.
Consciousness is a creation of God, that attaches to life. It arises from God, as part of his creation of souls from himself. He wanted to bring awareness and consciousness to all parts of himself, and so his creation of soul as conscious parts of himself, rather than as only unconscious parts was allowed by him granting these created souls freedom, which allowed them then to experience consciousness, as well.
Life itself functions mostly unconsciously, but human life has evolved into an awareness of time. It is this awareness that allows this unconsciousness to become conscious of itself only while the entity or soul is completely in the now, and outside of times movement. This is the paradoxical nature of consciousness. Consciousness doesn’t exist within time. It only exists in a moment outside time of stopped time, or only in the now.
This is why consciousness moves past unconsciousness, only by the soul or mind being actively present to itself now. Soul operates always outside of all time. The mind fleets inside and outside of time, depending on which part of the mind is functioning for you. The unconscious or subconscious is attached to the lower bodies, which operate within constructed time, within these lower planes of existence. The consciousness also operates here, but only is visible or noticed awarely by effectively stopping time passing, and so growing to be conscious of the unconsciousness that is running you within time.
This is looking then at the lower world through the window of now, which is the only window possible to see through from the higher worlds, and from your soul. This is why contact with your soul is always only in the now. Your dreams are now, and intuition always only ever comes to you now, in the now, from the now. It never allows for itself to be buried unconsciously in unconscious programs, or beliefs.
All intuition and dreams are always fresh and new and coming from the higher consciousness of soul residing in the higher worlds, while being attached to your lower bodies through its conscious connection only visible for this instance of now, in the now. This is why meditation and contemplation allows contact with your soul, as it opens wider this pinpoint of light shining through this window of now, until you slide through also, and live in this now for a few minutes of contemplation.
And so when you come out of meditation, you never know how much time has elapsed, as it seems like nothing, because it was all happening for you outside of time, now, and in the full consciousness only ever possible or accessible outside of time, and within this now.
If you deepen your awareness, and this is raising your consciousness, you will become more aware of your anger or negative emotions. The amazing thing is that they cannot exist within higher consciousness, and so they will then all disappear, but at the same time you will become aware of your love increasing.
Is this really true, you ask me? Some things cannot stand in front of awareness, or reside within full consciousness, and so they disappear. Awareness holds only love, all else drops, and melts away within this awareness.
Yes, awareness is best described by being your ability to love. The more you love, the more aware you are. The more you love, the less you hate, so as love increases through awareness, or increased consciousness, love increases, and so also the ability to love, and therefore all else really does drop away, and melts within this love, and the end result is that you eventually become totally loving only.
Anger for example might still arise. When it arises, it is noticed by awareness, and it melts away again, as the love comes in, and drowns it out. And so it is love that is the ultimate force of conscious awareness, and it will heal and remove all things that are not love, in the crucible of the intense power, and burning heat of love.
Love more today, to raise your state of consciousness today as well.
You never have to strain to know, or even to try to raise your consciousness. Life is not meant to be a struggle, but of course we still need to make an effort, and to give one hundred percent effort in all that we do. How can we balance our effort then, without straining to raise our consciousness, and trying too hard to find truth?
Knowledge is always available, and by not straining to find it, it will find you. On the other hand when carrying out any task, always use all of your knowledge, and so give it your best effort. The balance is in trying to force God to show his hand, and give you knowledge, whereas God is in charge, and releases knowledge, as you first grow into being able to handle what he gives you.
No matter of straining will ever achieve anything, or find any knowledge, because it depends on you raising your consciousness to be able to be aware enough, and have the privilege of earning access to higher knowledge, because you are now ready for it.
So can knowledge can be divided, or segregated, or separated into different aspects of itself? Labelling some knowledge as higher knowledge, and some by implication, then must be lower knowledge. Is this correct? What is higher knowledge, and what is lower knowledge? What is knowledge? And by connection, and association, the same questions apply to consciousness. What is consciousness, can it also really be separated, and labelled into lower and higher forms of itself?
To go on from these questions, we can then ask some more. Is knowledge related to love? Is there higher love and lower love, as well, or is love always complete, and entire within itself? And so there can never be a lower form of love, because it would then be no longer love. Love cannot be divided. Is this true, or not?
And so onto truth? Is there higher, and lower truths? Surely truth too, is only just truth. All truth must be higher truth. This seems self evident to me, as by allowing the concept of a lower truth, this would imply that it’s not a complete truth, or maybe just a less complex truth, or a truth utilising less consciousness.
How does this concept of lower and higher, within all these areas, all work then, is my real question here.
Is knowing yourself enough to know what is next to do, the same as knowing that what next to do is then only really starting to know yourself? Do you find yourself in your activities, or do you choose your activities from your level of knowing? Do you need to chase consciousness, or does it arrive for you as you allow it to catch you?
Perhaps consciousness always already exists within you, and you just have to allow it, its full existence consciously, by deciding to embrace it now, by living from it, in the now where it lives also.
The greatest level of knowing is self knowing. You can know all of the highest truths, and highest knowledge, but if you don’t know yourself, it is being under utilised, and perhaps wasted for now.
Knowledge is of course like love, and is only ever knowledge. The tags of higher or lower are only labels placed on it by souls wanting to reach higher consciousness. Higher consciousness is really about increased awareness of yourself. Complete knowing and knowledge of yourself is complete awareness, and existing and living at higher levels of consciousness.
Love, unconditional love is at the highest level of consciousness, and also at the lowest. Love is everywhere, but it takes consciousness to apply it. The soul originally was an unconscious functioning part of God. He allowed it to become conscious by adding a mind to soul. This mind is very important, and allows soul to introspect on itself, and to learn from itself, and eventually to understand its own truths as part of the greater truths combined in God.
This then brings wisdom, which is knowledge combining with conscious awareness of itself. Higher knowledge then can be defined as higher consciousness, accessing higher levels of truth, through understanding, and reaching greater abilities to love.
Is some knowledge really higher than other knowledge?
Well, take the example of a tree growing, it grows without knowing consciously that it is growing. Soul or you as a human can consciously watch your own unconscious grow into consciousness. The turning of unconscious truth into conscious truth is the obtaining of higher knowledge.
Higher knowledge is only ever a description of unconscious knowledge made conscious. Knowledge is after all like love, and is only ever itself, and so also with truth. All truth is of the highest truth. All love is of the highest love. All knowledge is of the highest knowledge.
This is because all is forever perfect in itself. The law of perfection states only that perfection is perfectly perfect, and needs no additions to it ever. This means that everything is in its rightful place, and everything is at its current level of understanding perfectly in its perfection for itself right now.
Perfection grows and expands, it never grows more perfect. You grow into more levels of perfection, only as you understand it. Experience brings this understanding, and it’s all about unconscious perfection being turned into conscious perfection by love moving before unconsciously, and now moving consciously through the truth of you, held in your heart.
The creation of freedom in your soul, allowed consciousness to form, and from then on unconsciousness has streamed through consciousness to greater and greater levels of perfected wisdom of conscious loving.
And so in the end result, all will be fully conscious of all, and at this stage, all will be fully loving at a level of total unconditional love, and all knowledge will have turned from a lower form of itself, because it is unknown consciously to an experienced conscious knowing of itself. God will then know himself as God, and we will have helped him to do this, by being ourselves in him.
And so is all consciousness also of the highest consciousness? Are there different states, or levels of consciousness existing?
No, consciousness is always complete within itself, and perfect in its fullness of consciousness. The different shades, or states of seemingly lesser consciousness, are really only different forms of unconsciousness blended, together, and mixed with consciousness, as it moves from being in a state of full unconsciousness, to the state of full complete consciousness, or a position of living only consciously from total, and complete unconditional love.
Total love is total consciousness.
It’s that simple, and God created consciousness, so that his love could be consciously given from itself, himself, and then consciously given back to God, as the created souls then raised their own consciousness, from previously being in a state of complete unconsciousness, and so gain in their ability to do be able to do this.
Love then will flow both ways fully consciously, and we will all live then in an arena of complete unconditional love.
We will have all then moved back into heaven, consciously, rather than residing there unconsciously, as we were before. Creation then is really all about allowing the unconscious, conscious awareness of itself. God gets to know himself, through us, and love lives in us from him, now consciously.
We will have gained God consciousness, and so realised the highest consciousness, by releasing the hold on us that unconsciousness had before, when we allowed our ego to block consciousness bringing us back to love, and which in other words is returning us consciously back to God. Unconscious love, which was always present and living or residing in us, can now be returned, and given back to God consciously.
This is God’s gift of consciousness to soul, and we return his gift, when we realise consciously, the love with which it was given. This takes the humbleness of realising that presently, we are not perhaps fully conscious, and need to work more on our awareness to remove ourselves from unconsciousness’s chains, and thereby free ourselves, to love consciously.
