The
spiritual state of
objective reason.
What a
layman might most easily understand as the state of
nirvana.
Cosmic Consciousness is the state where ones
reason has been
perfected to the point where it accurately represents
reality. That is to say,
human perception is inherently
imperfect in the way where one's reason may not adhere to the same
natural laws that reality does. While
reality itself is based strictly on
objective reason (things happen the same way every time, or at least close enough),
human perception is based on
subjective reason (where the same thing happening may appear different to different people, or different to the same person under different circumstances.)
A state of Cosmic Consciousness is believed to be
attained by perfecting one's
understanding of
reality. This is accomplished by the altering of oneself through
proper guidance in a manner that adapts ones
subjective perceptions to more closely resemble the
objective truth of reality. While it is
impossible to alter the functioning of
reality (while one may be able to impact
reality, one cannot alter the
principles upon which it is
based or
functions), one can however alter the way he or she
understands, or
perceives the world.
The more
perfected ones
perception of the
objective (or
real)
nature of reality is, the closer one becomes to
objective reason, and Cosmic Consciousness.
