What Is Consciousness?

The soul is conscient energy, aware of its own existence.Consciousness can be described as the feeling “I am” or “Iexist”. If you examine any thought-decision-action process,you will find that behind it, there is always the feeling: “Iam something or the other”. Consciousness is thus thespringboard for thought, decisions and actions. In otherwords, the soul reacts to external circumstances accordingto how it regards itself at that particular moment.e.g. a doctor is able to perform an operation when there isthe consciousness of being a doctor. That veryconsciousness unlocks or gives the soul access to all theinformation and experience related to being a doctor. Thesoul when it has the consciousness of being a soul is ableto have instant access to its own original qualities. As wehave discussed, there are two different basic levels ofconsciousness; “I am a body” or .I am a soul,” the former,illusory (false) and the latter, real. When the feeling is “Iam a body,” the thought process is trapped in thelimitations, problems and vision of the physical identity.Its reaction to others is on the same level.
