Universal Consciousness
Universal Consciousness is attained when a person has a lasting experience in which they see through their illusion of separateness, and lose their separate self-consciousness. Their consciousness then ‘merges’ with the Universe - thus they experience being One with the Universe. This is often the result of going through a conscious psychological ‘death experience’, brought on by meditation and other aspects of a spiritual path. The illusion of separateness dissolves in the awareness of Oneness. And with the dissolution of the illusion of separateness, the separate self ‘seems’ to die, and a ‘rebirth’ occurs. Separate self consciousness is transcended and transformed. The dominant consciousness becomes that of the Inner Self, the part of us that is the Universal Spirit - thus, we have ‘Universal Consciousness’. When experienced properly, a person is never the same, and never ‘sees things’ the same way again. From then on, all things are understood in the light of the ‘biggest picture’, in the light of being One with the Universal Spirit (God). Selfishness thus becomes a thing of the past. This is also called achieving ‘enlightenment’, and a few other names.
The difference between having separate self consciousness, or having Universal Consciousness, is like night and day. Consider, an environmentalist who has expanded his/her separate self consciousness to include concern for ecology. This is good. And if being aware of the flow and balance of Earth’s nature is good, imagine the significance of being really aware of the flow and balance, of all things - of the entire Universe? And if being concerned about all humans on Earth is good, what about being devoted to caring for all life within the entire Universe? A person who has attained Universal Consciousness, has transcended separate self consciousness, and thus sees infinitely more, understands infinitely more. Imagine being able to know if what you are doing is really going to ultimately help, or ultimately harm.

The lasting experience of seeing through the illusionary veil of separateness is the place where most humans exist and live throughout their entire lifetime. I have heard people say that this life we are now experiencing is only a dream; that is not so according to my experiences and understanding of life for sure. What I am; living here in this current moment called the Now, is my conscious reality. Within our personal realities can be found many forms of illusion if we allow such to be planted there. A major and extremely horrific part of the majority of people’s lives of illusion; is complete separation from UNIVSERAL ONENESS and the Whole of Creation. For sure that in and of itself is a nightmare; such instigates a perpetual state of exclusivism of which travels hand in hand, with its long time cousins selfishness and self-centeredness. Ultimately, that creates an energy that will in no way allow true companionship, because true companionship calls for equal cooperation with the whole; and equal cooperation is surely not an incorporated part of the ego of the one who feels separation, and sees himself or herself as being above and better then others and can not cooperate with anyone. Speaking of cooperation, they actually have a hard time cooperating within themselves. Because of that, they are far from being able to understand the following old quote I heard numerous times when I was growing up; the word woman in the quote was added by me. No man or woman is an island; no man or woman stands alone. We stand together in oneness because we need and compliment each other, just like the many members of our physical bodies need and compliment each other. That same oneness is duplicated in the Universe and likewise throughout the Whole of Creation. No one can solely exist by himself or herself; if they do not depend on another human being for anything, they most definitely must depend upon nature (Earth Mother) for a great deal of what they need for their survival, and nature is a major part of the Whole of Creation in which human beings are one with.
Conscious acceptance of our oneness allows us to fully open up, be a part of, and receive the benefits of being a part of the Whole of Creation; not that it was being withheld from us because it wasn’t, the problem is we simply would not open up and receive it. Here is an example that I use a lot. It is the same as someone having a bank account with hundreds of thousands of dollars in it, however they roam the streets as a homeless person begging for money and food; when all along they have enough money to buy a home, clothes, and all of the food they can possibly eat. We do exactly the same thing when we neglect to acknowledge our Sacred Oneness with each other and the Whole of Creation. As it was stated in the two paragraphs I shared above. We go through a conscious psychological death experience; in essence we must die to self and die to selfishness.
When we are in the Sacred State of Oneness, we are God’s; we are the God’s of ourselves, we are the God’s that create our surrounding worlds of reality. Once we awaken and reach that level of conscious existence, we realize that we are to link our surrounding worlds together and start the process of being the positive example to those who are trying to make it by themselves. When they see the joy and positive camaraderie that is being experienced and enjoyed by those who are truly conscious of their Spiritual Oneness, they will desire to have that as well. That is the beginning of the process of dieing to the little self, and allowing the conscious merging of the Sacredness of UNIVERSAL INTELLIGENCE; and being one with UNIVERSAL ONENESS and one with their Higher Selves and the Whole of Creation. That will cause complete transformation. I see that as the true act of being spiritually, emotionally, and intellectually Born Again. That is when we are truly re-birthed into our true state of being Eternal Spiritual Beings, sojourning through this temporal physical existence. Then it can be truthfully said; welcome to the New Glorious Dawn, the Radiant Spiritual Sunrise; once again being able to clearly see the Rising of the Eternal Sacred Sun; the giver of New Life to those who will open up and receive it as a part of the Sacred Oneness. This is the place of Total Spiritual Transcendence, the place of no longer being a slave to the little fearful self. There is no place that is full of more Love, Wonder, Beauty, and Divine Oneness. Welcome to the World of Universal Oneness.
As pointed out in the article above, we must transcend the separate self-consciousness so that we can see infinitely more, and understand infinitely more. That is when ego and selfishness is no longer a personal issue in our lives.
Universal Consciousness Is Divinely Designed For Us All!
