CONSCIOUSNESS


So what are we talking about? This one process. You know those trees out there? They are your lungs. If those trees did not breathe, you would not breathe. This air that we are sharing is our breath. Those rivers and waters out there are our circulation. And our bodies and the earth's body are recycling right this moment. There is no separation. There is differentiation.

Consciousness

"In the Hindu tradition there is a way of talking about this transformation which is in terms of bodily sheaths, or 'koshas', in which the human consciousness is involved, of which only the first is physical and the rest are subtle... As one passes beyond all the limitations of the lower levels of consciousness, one experiences the bliss of the 'sahasrara', the highest level of consciousness, the 'anandamayakosha'. At that stage one is open to the cosmic consciousness, the cosmic order, and that is where one becomes aware of the gods and the angels."

Noi






















mă întreb dacă suntem, cum credeam până a-mi pune întrebarea adineauri, învelişuri de materie menite să protejeze energia (sufletul, chakrele, lumina...) din noi sau schelete facăute pentru a crea, multplica, stoca, emana, transmite şi, defapt, crea aura asta care este omul cu adevărat.

The Seven States of Consciousness



1) Sleep state - dreamless, mind & ego asleep.

2) Dream state - REM sleep, mind is active, body asleep.

3) Waking state - typical ‘reality’. In some ways, these first three are really states of mind within a single state of consciousness.

4) Transcendental Consciousness - a state of restful alertness where the mind is awake but quiet, silent but alert. May be experienced less clearly as a blank spot. Typically arises in meditation but can come up almost anywhere. Characterized by cessation of breath (automatically) and brain wave sync. Stepping into and out of this state one may experience a wave of happiness. We are said to step into this momentarily each time we change states above, like a neutral gear. Has been established by scientific research, with a fully definable unique physiology.

5) Cosmic Consciousness - Where Transcendental consciousness becomes full time, beneath waking, dreaming and sleeping states. The ego idea falls away and we become Self, permanently. We are a witness or observer to all activity, including deep sleep (when clear). This is also referred to as first waking or self-realization. Several recent books talk about the transition - while the shift is distinct, various degrees of clearing may be required after. Fully established, it is Sat Chit Ananda, absolute bliss consciousness. The subject of perception is awake but not the object.

6) God Consciousness - also called Celestial Con. or God Realization. With time in above states, finer values of perception develop and the divine heart opens. We come to experience the finest values of creation, the full mechanics of the story of the world. This is a process of refinement and opening so does not have a distinct realization the way CC and UC (next) do. It can begin before first waking and continues indefinitely. It is the awakening of the object, the bridge to Unity.

7) Unity Consciousness - Also Oneness. Characterized by a realization, when the Self is seen in the object, we realize I am That, Thou Art That, All This is That. (Upanishads) The subject-object duality collapses, the dream of God is seen through and all illusion ends. It is characterized by the loss of identity or sense of person, the subconscious driver of the former ego. There is no longer ‘inside’ and ‘outside’ but rather a continuum. The world ‘out there’ ceases to exist. Many paradoxes are resolved in the inclusiveness of the One.
