 "…all consciousness is one consciousness."


Edgar Cayce reading 136-59



Definitions

Consciousness is awareness of what is. ‘What is’ is everything in existence, including All-That-Is identified as pastfutureperceptual, or imaginary. All consciousness, regardless of whether it is within a collective or individual experience of realityexperiences some form of self (which can be vastly different from our own).

The-One-Self refers to the self that arises from the totality of all consciousness in existence. All existence occurs within its perceptionHuman existence is the navigation of an individuated focus through the totality of its perception.

The-One-Self = All consciousness = All definitions = All-That-Is = everything in existence = the Tao = source = God*

God is everythingGod includes every concept of God. There is no opposite to GodGod is not less than God when it chooses to experience itself as a human.

Example: To say, I am The-One-Self is to say that you know yourself to be that which is everything in existence. It is to know that every person can say, I am The-One-Self.” To know this is to step outside of the personalization and possessiveness of individuality.


One Consciousness Creates All Individuality

All separation is an illusion. What appears as the solidity of the outer world only exists within perception. The perception exists within consciousness. Consciousness is that which is aware of perception and experiences presence through it.

Physical matter is created through a perceptual projection that creates the illusion of spatial separation. In just the same way that physical space separates one thing from another, so linear-time is the illusion of temporal separationTime and space are perceptual projections that create the experience of the outward reality that your experience of self is contained within. They are the primary form of separation used by consciousness to create experiences of individuality (such as being human).

The outer world and your physical body are the perceptual projection of a state of consciousness that is choosing to dream of being a physicalindividuated self that is contained within a world of consistent solidity. You witness this ability of your consciousness to create worlds every night when you dream. The waking dream of your life is however governed by rules of persistence and linear consistency that we have chosen to experience while in human form.

Consciousness knows itself to not be separate from anything in terms of either time or space. To become an individual therefore requires making the choice to become unconscious of how everything is the unified projection of a single consciousness. This choice for unconsciousness creates an experience of a self that possesses its own unique perspective and thereby its own uniqueunfolding experience of self.

moment of human perception is an experience of partial-consciousness because it is a slice of the total perception that exists within the unified-consciousness. It is one of an infinite number of ‘momentary’ perceptions that you are sequentially moving through in your creation of a mortal self that lives within linear-time. You are the one-consciousness in human form.

Reflective Beliefs

Separation is a perceptual illusion experienced within consciousness.

Waking life is a dream with self-imposed consistency.

Physical matter & linear-time are forms of separation.

When not within the perception of separationwhich is an illusion—all consciousness experiences itself as one.

The one-consciousness uses the illusion of separation to experience itself as many individuals.



There is a single, intelligent Consciousness that pervades the entire Universe - the Universal Mind. It is all-knowing, all powerful, all creative and always present. As it is present everywhere at the same time, it follows that it must also be present in you - that it is you. Your mind is part of the one Universal Mind. This is not simply a philosophical ideal passed down to us through the ages. It is an exact scientific truth. Know it, believe it, apply it and you will see your life transform in miraculous ways.

Albert Einstein told us that "everything is energy"; that "a human being is a part of the whole called by us [the] Universe". His words echoed the most ancient of spiritual and philosophical teachings and still underpin today's cutting-edge scientific discoveries. The Universal Mind goes by many names. In the scientific world we know of the Unified Field, in spiritual philosophy we refer to The All or Universal Consciousness and in religion we call upon God who Himself goes by many names - Jehovah, Allah and Brahman to mention but a few. The name is relevant only in so far as it resonates with you.

Whichever way you cut it, you come to this one unavoidable conclusion: there is but One Consciousness of which your consciousness must be a part and "a part", as Charles Haanel said, "must be the same in kind and quality as the whole, the only difference being one of degree".

The nature of the Universal Mind is Omniscience (all-knowing), Omnipotence (all-powerful), Omnificence (all creative) and Omnipresence (always present). Know that this too is your nature. You have access to all knowledge, known and unknown; you have access to an infinite power for which nothing is impossible; you have access to the limitless creativity of the One Creator. All these attributes are present within you at all times in their potential form.

It is up to you to know and act upon your own nature. The inscription on the Ancient Greek Temple of Apollo at Delphi left no room for misunderstanding: "Know thyself and thou shalt know all the mysteries of the gods and the universe". It is through the power of your subconscious mind and your higher self that you can learn to align yourself with the Omnipotence, Omniscience and Omnificence of the Universal Mind at all times.

Each and every one of us is a manifestation of this single Universal Consciousness. There is profound truth in the ancient teaching that we are all One. We are all connected - not only to each other but to all of Nature and to everything in the Universe. This is the Law of One. What you do to others, you do to yourself. The way you treat Nature, you in fact treat yourself. The separateness you "see" is an illusion of the personality ego. The true nature of reality is non-dualistic, meaning that while things may appear distinct, they are not separate.

You are able to create your ideal reality because you are already connected to everything you want. Nothing and no one is separate from you. You can experience happiness, true love, perfect health, abundance, wealth and anything else you intend. All you have to do is bring yourself into vibrational harmony with the nature of that which you want to experience through the creative power of your thoughts. To become the master of your destiny, you must master your thoughts.

In a nutshell, there is a single Consciousness, the Universal Mind, which pervades the entire Universe. It is all-knowing, all-powerful, all creative and always present everywhere at the same time. Your consciousness is part of it - it is It. All is One. You are connected to everything and every one. You are already connected with what you want. To the degree that you truly comprehend and internalise this Truth, you will be able to become the master of your mind and the director of your life.
