THE RELATION OF CONSCIOUSNESS TO SACRED SCIENCE AND SACRED ART

Consciousness includes personal growth, self awareness and healing. Becoming self-aware is the most important human activity, for it is the source  of personal growth and healing. Without self-awareness, one cannot fulfill one's potential.

Soul purpose and self-awareness are two aspects of one's process. If you know your soul purpose, you are self-aware and can unfold your life in a fulfilling way. Without self-awareness you may become hurt, frustrated, and angry. The heart of consciousness is knowing the roots of desire. The real root of desire is love—unconditional love—but there is a difference between love and desire.

Love experiences oneness; desire experiences polarity. You desire something or someone outside of yourself. This kind of desire leads to hurt, frustration, and anger because of the polarity.

To heal oneself of frustrations is to dissolve expectations and judgments—either of oneself or others. Self-awareness is a compassionate witnessing of ourselves and others becoming conscious of the roots of love and fruits of desire. Cease expecting and judging and simply love and witness. Then self-awareness becomes happiness!
