A Movement from Mind to Consciousness is Essential for Peace in the World

 

Rhinemaidens (under the rainbow bridge to Asgard), by Arthur Rackham

Our consciousness is not yours or mine. It is the consciousness of all human beings.

It is very difficult for most people to see the reality of this, because we have been so conditioned.

The mind is the conditioned consciousness, it is consciousness which has identified itself with the body and the thoughts. The mind is the idea of the separate individual.

For Christianity, you are a separate soul. Among the Hindus, you reincarnate over and over again till you reach god knows what. It is still the emphasis that you are a separate individual.

Is that so? We are questioning. We have to find out, doubt, ask, which means you are listening without any defence, without any resistance to this truth.

We are using the word correctly; it is the truth.

You may, at the periphery, on the outside, have certain mannerisms, certain habits, certain tendencies, capacities, but if you move from the outer to the inner, we all share the same common issues.

Unless we realize this, not verbally, not intellectually, but in our hearts, in our minds, in our blood, we are going to destroy each other.
