Today ,we will talk about the Super-conscious.
The word Super-conscious should not confuse you.
Often we call something super when we assume it to be above or superior to whatever
we are comparing it with. Super-conscious here means an amalgation of the conscious,
intelligent Energies called the Souls. Souls exist. They however don’t exist in
the traditional senses of the term where we define existence as occupation of a
certain time and space. Since the souls don’t exist as we humans define
existence, the superconscious, which is an amalgamation of the souls, also doesn’t
exist as we humans define it. It however pervades through the infinitesimally smallest
part of every living and non-living thing on the earth. It is the prime mover-
moving things according to the grand scheme of things. Variously called as the
Life energy, Universal force, etc., it is what the major religions of the world
call as the GOD. The Super consciousness
is that conscious, intelligent energy which is the source of all souls, events,
matter in the world. It is the defining force which manifests itself through
all living , non-living, mass and
non-mass of the world. Our ancients knew about the presence of this fantastic
mover of the world and were in total awe of it. Since one could never come
close to understand it’s true nature but only stoically bear the effects on their lives, they held it in
total reverence and prayed and worshipped to it to turn it into an ally and keep themselves out of harm’s ways. If you
will read the excellent book by Karen Armstrong – A History of God, you will
see that God was initially revered as a mean, scary, revengeful icon who often
sided with the people who worshipped him and punished the rest. Each ancient
tribe believed in the superiority of it’s God or Gods over that of the others. The
first task after vanquishing a rival tribe was to establish their own Gods as
captor’s Gods. This is how the ancient religion of Judaism developed. The idea
of Monotheistic religions, that there is only one God, came much later into
being after the advent of Christianity and Islam. This bring us to a very
important question related to the basic foundation of all world religions.
Is there really only one God?
The answer is both yes and no. God by definition is
a Super-conscious vital energy. This energy is composed of the sumtotal of all
Conscious energies called Souls. So, it is the sum of the parts which makes it
whole. Imagine viewing a beautiful painting of a lady from a distance. What do
you see? A beautiful picture of a person. Now, as you come closer, slowly the
brush strokes that made the painting start manifesting themselves. So what
really is the truth? The complete portrait
of the person whom you saw or the brush strokes that have made it into a
picture. If you view from one angle, it is ONE. If you view from another angle,
it is SEVERAL. The choice is yours to make. It doesn’t make one iota of a difference
to the Super-conscious whether you consider it single or several!
So what exactly is happening in the Universe? The
Souls which form together the Super-conscious are at all times connected to
this Super-conscious. Yes, at all times. Whether they are part of an
incarnation or whether they are in between incarnations or whether they have
reached the end of their incarnation cycles – this link with other souls is
maintained at all times. Just imagine a huge closed system in which all the
Souls are going about their business of learning and giving lessons from and to
each other. You could call this system the Super-conscious. It is continuously
evolving. With each Soul’s every bit of learning, the Super-conscious is
further evolved. The reason is simple- Super-conscious is Souls and Souls are
Super-conscious. Singular to Plural, Plural to Singular.
In my next post, I will talk about the Sub-conscious mind- our link to the Super-conscious.
