Introduction to Consciousness [0:01]
The video introduces the concept of consciousness and its importance in improving one's life. It poses the question of whether an unseen force controls our lives, identifying that force as consciousness. The speaker asserts that heightened consciousness can eliminate worries, fears, and anxieties. The video aims to discuss methods to raise consciousness and the signs that indicate its elevation.
Understanding Consciousness [0:43]
The speaker explains that raising consciousness doesn't necessarily make life better but allows one to view life from a different angle. Living without consciousness means being controlled by the external world, while a raised consciousness enables a different perception of the world. Consciousness is defined as the basis of everything and the recognition of truth.
The Layers of Consciousness [1:32]
Using the analogy of visiting a waterfall, the speaker illustrates the layers of consciousness. The eye is the subject through which the waterfall (the object) is seen. The desire to see the waterfall originates in the mind, making vision the subject. Consciousness is the event behind the mind, driving the desire and the experience. Each layer back reveals a rise in consciousness, leading to the understanding of pure awareness or consciousness.
Methods to Raise Consciousness: Attention and Awareness [3:28]
The first method discussed is raising attention and awareness, emphasizing the need to be conscious of one's surroundings. Even when awake, one must properly use their conscious mind to achieve corresponding results. Using the example of a job, the speaker explains that having awareness and a clear goal allows one to dedicate themselves to the task, understand its purpose, and recognize the truth, thereby raising consciousness. The subconscious mind records everything, and conscious instructions are needed to break repetitive habits.
Methods to Raise Consciousness: Meditation [5:24]
Meditation is presented as another method to raise consciousness. Focusing on breath or energy centers helps to calm the mind, connecting it to consciousness. This clarity allows one to see everything in their consciousness clearly, aiding in manifestations and achieving desired outcomes. The speaker mentions having meditation videos available for channel members.
Methods to Raise Consciousness: Learning from Life [6:27]
Learning from life experiences, both happy and sad, is highlighted as a way to raise consciousness. The speaker shares two personal anecdotes: one about losing a job due to lack of effort and another about securing a job during the COVID-19 pandemic by focusing on possibilities rather than fear. The lessons learned were the importance of sincere effort and the power of focusing on needs amidst distractions.
Methods to Raise Consciousness: Gratitude [10:57]
Gratitude is presented as an incredible method to raise consciousness. Being thankful for everything, big and small, can keep one active throughout the day. The speaker suggests starting the day by meditating, exercising, and then identifying three things to be grateful for before breakfast. This practice can bring high vibration and help recognize the truths in life.
Methods to Raise Consciousness: Integrate Your Shadow Self [12:51]
The final technique discussed is integrating the shadow self with the higher self. Instead of hiding difficulties and bitter experiences, one should bring them to light and recognize limitations. By having a higher purpose, such as helping or inspiring others, one can transform these limitations. This involves accepting and improving oneself, moving from darkness to light for personal growth.
Signs of Raised Consciousness [14:36]
The video outlines several signs that indicate a rise in consciousness. These include becoming less reactive and more responsive, decreasing judgment of others, experiencing inner peace unaffected by external events, and feeling a sense of flow in life, where one doesn't get stuck but moves forward continuously.
