Is having a conscience a good or bad thing?

[rocksteady]

I don't have any special feelings about where my thoughts are coming from that are separate from where I think thoughts generally come from it's just little messages passing between cells in my brain as far as I'm concerned

that doesn't make it any less 'meaningful' to me, like I don't need it to be mystical in terms of its physical manifestation to be amazing in terms of its conceptual results

where do thoughts come from (don't laugh at that question)?


no of course it's not "less meaningful", i understand.

 

[rocksteady]

Absolutely not!

That link is is a brief synopses of his theory. Everyone cannot be self actualized and will never reach certain levels of consciousness.

If you have time over the summer to read, his book goes more in depth

It's one of my favorites.

so you're referring to some point in space rather than the process?

No because I take it as my spirit guides trying to connect with me.

can you explain this further (if you have the time)?

Good, it will benefit you more in the long run.

Not having a conscience can provide some short term benefits though for sure

I view it as milestones.

Life is an ongoing process until your demise. Specific points offer clarity but the journey is never ending.

does this ever get into where the neural energy comes from?

where does the energy come from once the brain sends out its first neural activity?

once the neural system is in place it activates?

no idea breh.. this is why I have 500 posts on the coli instead of journal articles in Nature

I think scientists barely understand anything about how the brain works though.. it's going to take a lot of work still

so you're talking about different levels of consciousness, right? correct me if i got that wrong...

the journey of personal consciousness actualized through the process of life?

Everyone has spirit guides that talk to them. Some people call them hunches, gut feelings, etc but in my practice we call them spirit guides. They are the middle ground between us and the spirit world where all the other unseen entities roam.You choose them in the spirit world before you are born. You can call on them anytime if youre confused or need direction. Sometimes they make themselves seen though in the differnt forms like I said intuition, imaginary friends, dreams, etc.

Exactly! IMO there are different levels (others may disagree).

They only way to fully understand consciousness is by living your life. Asking other's may be of some help/assistance but it pales in comparison to actual experience(s).

i think you have a conscience whether you realize it or not, imo. the confusion or loss of resolution in the image (what you imagine in an idea) may make it seem like the detail (an amount of understanding, perhaps realization) is not there.

how much control do you have over the certain part of the compartmentalization of the non-physical you?
