What is consciousness?

by | May 3, 2020 | 0 comments

“In short, being-ness. Words cannot describe it but can point to it. Mind can comprehend it with labels but cannot truly fully know it. One cannot know consciousness but one can experience consciousness only by giving one’s intellect a chance to be silent. It is not even awareness. Awareness is what can be done when one has consciousness. Only by turning off the mind, like closing off the eyes, only can one can experience consciousness.”
