B.   ON CONSCIOUSNESS

1   Man is differently conscious.  It is the moment's sphere of consciousness that makes him talk about a subject matter.

2   The worthy consciousness to dwell in is the objective consciousness.  All other mechanical and habitual consciousness are but subjective drops that arise accidentally.  You cannot avoid them even for a second.

3   That consciousness which is directed outwards into the First World and seldom directed inwards into the Second World is the consciousness of the extrovert.  That consciousness which is directed inward into the Second World and forms the Third World is the consciousness of the introvert.  The consciousness of the mechanical men is either inward or outward, the two directions cannot exist at once.  It is either/or.  It is dualist in nature.  But both can still occur mechanically.

4   Experience is a result of consciousness remembering its own historical-psychological path.  Consciousness is capable of remembering its own passage and goes back into the past by bringing the past into the present as its conscious subject matter.

5   When there is esoteric consciousness for man on earth in a certain historical period, there is a possibility of esoteric groups.  As the group grows in size, it gradually loses its esotericity.  Its decline begins as soon as it organizes.  This would rapidly turn into a Confusion of the Tongue.

6   Hidden behind one ray of consciousness there may be another and so on and so forth.  Unless consciousness in the flesh of man is raised to a very high level, the real world can never be known even if there existed many books and creations done by the conscious man of the past.

7   They are in the consciousness and the states; they also have not yet pass through other states; that is why they cannot recognize the states and produce the states which they are not.  Every state for them is chance presence and it only happens by itself; and chance contact of the state with another different state, they cannot understand it but however they can sense the difference vaguely.

There are 4 states of consciousness in man.  They are sleep, wake, self-consciousness and objective consciousness.  The psyche hydrogens extracted and that digested as food octave, air octave and impression octave into finer psyche hydrogens of higher 'materialities' are continuous processes once they enter into the enneagram of the human body. For the ordinary food octave, it is called feces and for the air octave, it is called exhaled air but for the impression octave it is called dreams including nightmares.  These wastes are the fragmented sub-consciousness present in varying amounts in the 7 centers of the body.  Wastes, 'extras' and unwanted psyche hydrogens exist in all the 4 states of consciousness, and the body regularly needs to recycle or dispose them through and in the forms of iterating 'dreams' or 'nightmares' over time till they become 'nothing'. During sleep/wake consciousness states, these fragmented sub-consciousness pieces are recycled and disposed off through dreams, often in large amounts and even as nightmares. However, during the subjective self-consciousness and the objective consciousness states, these fragmented subconscious pieces are accumulated and prevented from release due to the overwhelming work demands of the outer world where objective consciousness is active as well as the inner world where the subjective self-consciousness is active.

8   The table of the states of consciousness is shown below:

Between sleep and awake there is a preparatory period or transition period.  In real sleep, the passenger, the coachman, the horse and the carriage are truly asleep and do not communicate with one another.  When waking-up is about to happen, one of the four bodies begins to be active.  It begins to establish contacts and communicate with the other bodies.  Gradually two bodies become active, then three and finally four.  And we are ready to wake-up.  This preparatory period may take from 5 to 15 minutes in normal case.  Sleep-awake (5-15 minutes).

In practice, before one wakes up one must really allow the preparatory work to begin.  Do not hurriedly jump out from the bed.  Spend some time, for this preparatory work.  Make slow movements first, for all the four bodies, then bigger movements, etc.  And finally, wake-up.

T1, T2 and T3 are the Transition Periods

9   The Seven-Cycles of Consciousness per day:  There are four main states of consciousness but they occur in cycles for an ordinary man as well as the higher man within a day.  Sleep – Awake cycle with brief excursion to the level of Self-Consciousness occurs mainly for ordinary man within a diurnal day with the sleep state mostly at night and the sleep-wake state during the day.  The state of self-consciousness occurs only occasionally when there is a danger or when a person is gripped by fear.

Objective-consciousness occurs only for higher man who has gone through conscious labor and intentional suffering or the WORK.  Only he is able to maintain this higher state for more hours during his diurnal day when compared to ordinary man.

Objective consciousness Objective consciousness

10   In mental culture, it is the Conscious-I which leads and guides the knowledge (Jana).  Objective consciousness cannot be retained for long if the physical body is not healthy.

11   The consciousness of an individual man is however only one drop of all the scattered consciousness in the body of our Most Respected Universe.  The universe's upper department expects us to do the job well there.

12   Each state of consciousness that emerges in the body is dependent on the type of psyche hydrogens that is being used or derived as "fuels for the burning process" from the accumulators or centers - the sex accumulator, the moving (motor) accumulator, the instinct accumulator, the lower emotion accumulator, the lower mental accumulator, the higher emotion and the higher mental accumulator.  Even our memory is in these accumulators.  The accumulators are psyche energy warehouses for psyche hydrogens do 768, re 384, do 192, re 192, mi 192, re 96, fa 96, do 48, mi 48, so 48, re 24, fa 24, la 24, mi 12, so 12, ti 12, fa 6 and la 6 in various grade of fineness and vibrancy - the smaller the number the greater the density of vibration and the lesser the density of matter.  During the sleep mode of our body, the sleep state burns coarse hydrogens fuels of the order of do 768, re 384, do 192, re 192, mi 192, re 96, fa 96 and do 48 and occassional night dreams happens when some bits (qubits in contemporary scientific terms) of finer hydrogens from higher accumulators are accidentally triggered and activated for short period of time.   During the awake mode, the awake state burns the same set of hydrogens in the sleep mode but with additional finer hydrogens included into the state - mi 48, so 48, re 24, fa 24, la 24, mi 12, so 12 and ti 12.  In the awake mode which is essentially a daydream awake state when less and less of these additional fuels are available for burning or some of them are already burnt out.  In the self-consciousness mode, the self-conscious state is now maintained through burning of the finest hydrogens of la 6 from the higher emotion accumulator and this state fades as these higher and finer hydrogens are burnt out.  In the objective consciousness mode, the objective consciousness state is maintained through burning hydrogen fa 6 fuels and the burning of hydrogen la 6 fuels must still continue to maintain this state.  Furthermore, there is a necessary inner work or effort required, namely 'conscious labor and intentional suffering', to stabilize and maintain these two higher states of consciousness.  Note that the energies of these hydrogens fa 6 and la 6 are enormous and the forces from them are very powerful.  When these psyche hydrogen  fuels are burnt out or the body is no longer able to produce them due to failed 'conscious labor and intentional suffering' or otherwise, the state falls back to dreamlike waking state, sleep and even death state.
