Ah, great mystery! It is possible to be conciousness and not know anything! Conciousness is all that there is! What is looking out of your eyes right now is consiousness. Nothing more, nothing less. Conciousness lives out the lives of the small and the great. Those who never seek are that conciousness. Those that do nothing but seek are that consiousness. Those that understand are that consiousness. It is not separate from anything for everything arises in that conciousness. Truly that conciousness is everything. What need is there to compare this with that? Simply look at your self as it is - it is that conciousness. You may argue this point all you want. Yes even the argument is that conciousness. When this is understood you walk freely between heaven and earth. Free to live in compassion and joy. OM Shanti OM HAHAHAH and HOHOHO!

Guest guest Posted January 26, 2001 Report Share Posted January 26, 2001 Hi David, - <dswgos <Nisargadatta > Saturday, January 27, 2001 09:13 AM Re: Impossibility > Michael...I Hear You Saying... " Consciousness is All there is...! " > > Are You Saying a Rock is Conscious...? There is a difference in the connotation of the term " Consciousness and " Conscious " . Conscious is always conscious of something. The whole process of the cognizer, the cognition, the cognized. Whereas the term " Consciousness " is just a term used for " that " which is cognizing through the conceptual body-mind complex. In some forms of it's expressions, we say the quality of Consciousness has an added aspect of sentience, and thus such forms are sentient beings. Viz humans ,animals and plants. Further in the human being there is a further added quality of the intellect or the sense of discrimination, of separation. You asked about a rock. Yes a rock does not have the quality of sentience or intellect, but make no mistake, a rock at it's fundamental levels is of the same Consciousness which is of a man or a yellow bellied dog. Consciousness in movement, or as Science concludes energy patterns criss-crossing throwing up forms is what is termed phenomenality. Just different forms of the same energy, moving in specific patterns, with or without the quality of sentience and an intellect for discrimination. A apt example is to take a blank piece of paper and draw two criss-crossing lines.At the point of the crossing of the two lines, there appears a point. There is none there, but an appearance of it. Energy crisscrossing itself, obviously in a far more complex manner, throws up the appearance of a rock, a flower, a pig , an Einstein or a Hitler. In essence, there is no difference between the appearances. Cheers Sandeep Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
