Where IS your consciousness ?
CONSCIOUSNESS IS EVERYWHERE
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
OUR CONSCIOUSNESS IS NOT IN OUR BRAIN.
YOU CAN VIEW THE BRAIN AS A - be it brilliant, extremely complex - MACHINE.
A machine which ....
- PLAYS A CENTRAL ROLE WITH RESPECT TO OUR PHYSICAL FUNCTIONING.
- MAKES THE IMPRESSIONS WE PICK UP UNDERSTANDABLE (TRANSLATES into a language which we are able to understand at this level).
- PROVIDES THE MEANS THROUGH WHICH WE CAN APPLY SELECTION WITH RESPECT TO WHAT WE PICK UP ON, SO THAT - WHILE WE ARE LIVING AT THIS PHYSICAL LEVEL - WE ARE NOT SUBJECT TO BEING OVERLOADED BY A CONSTANT STREAM OF IMPRESSIONS / INFORMATION.
If no selection took place we would not be able to function
normally.
So our brain in actual fact can be considered as a 'FILTER'.
OUR BRAIN DOES NOT CONTAIN OUR CONSCIOUSNESS.
Mind is not contained by the brain & body;
the brain & body are contained by Mind,
by Consciousness.
OUR 'FOCUS' AMONGST OTHERS DETERMINES WHAT WE ARE AWARE OF & OF HOW MUCH WE ARE AWARE.
DURING OUR STAY AT THIS PHYSICAL LEVEL WE ARE MAINLY AWARE OF WHAT WE PICK UP ON HERE, BECAUSE OUR FOCUS - LOGICALLY - IS PREDOMINANTLY AIMED AT THIS LEVEL.
WE HAVE A PHYSICAL BODY. OUR FOCUS IS PLACED ON THIS BODY, BECAUSE WE USE THIS BODY TO BE ABLE TO LIVE THIS PHYSICAL LIFE.
BUT AGAIN . . . .
OUR CONSCIOUSNESS DOES NOT FORM A PART OF OUR BODY
OUR BODY IS PART OF OUR CONSCIOUSNESS
WE CAN ALSO BE CONSCIOUS OUTSIDE OUR PHYSICAL BODY.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
WE ALSO HAVE DIFFERENT ENERGY BODIES
AND OUR CONSCIOUSNESS CAN ALSO UTILIZE THESE BODIES, AS A
'MEANS OF TRANSPORT ' WHEN EXPERIENCING OTHER - EXTRA-PHYSICAL - LEVELS.
You can experience your energy bodies during conscious O.B.E.'s. There is a shift in FOCUS from your physical to your energy body.
