How
many of us are conscious? What does being conscious mean? Consciousness is
defined as state of awareness. Awareness of self and objects/people around.
Consciousness is the most mysterious aspect of human life. Philosophers,
scientists have struggled to correctly comprehend it and reason it. To me, consciousness
is life.
This
brings me back to my original question, how many of us are conscious? Aware
about the spirit in us? Those who are alive not necessary be conscious. Does level
of consciousness impact the decision we take in our lives? Does it impact our
understanding of right and wrong? Are right acts/decisions taken by people
having more consciousness?
Again,
right and wrong are state of minds, of different people about the same
incident. So righteousness is relative. There cannot be absolute right or in
that case absolute wrong. What you may feel is right is relatively wrong to
other people. You have to decide your action. Your right. Your right may be
wrong for someone else. Should you care about it?
The
concept of right and wrong are generally instilled deep down our mind and soul
even before we know it. It forms a major part of our upbringing. While we grow
up, we fix our boundaries about right and wrong. We modify and little while we
grow up, but the basic plot remains the same.
So
how does consciousness relate with degree of rightness of any of our task/act. Any
decision/task undertaken by highly conscious person is deemed to be right. But
as righteousness is relative, it ought to be wrong for someone else. Who is
defines right? What does right actually mean? Does it mean, right for you or
the right for greater good? Who decides what greater good is?
Our
consciousness allows us to distinguish between right and wrong. The level of
our consciousness decides whether our right is right w r t greater good for
more people. For people we may or may not know. It is that blink of thought,
that glimmer of luminosity, which helps us to decide. The clearer the
conscious, the brighter the luminosity.
In
today’s world, we often see lack of clarity, no fix priorities and beliefs in
lives of people. It seems consciousness and feeling it is not of prime
importance to people. It depends entirely on your luck, by how many aware
people are u surrounded? The chances of you being happy and successful depends
greatly on level on consciousness within and around you. The emotional walls
that people create which sets their priority needs to be glued with consciousness
for them to be erect, forever.
Let
us take some time off, think, feel whom are we surrounded with and who deserves
to be surrounded by you. The inner circle of light around you becomes narrower
with more people who don’t have awareness are around you. You will start
experiencing it and feeling it the moment you notice. Your energy and thought process
is greatly influenced by the person sitting next to you for most time of the
day. So watch out, and choose your people carefully.
