The Map Of Consciousness: Part 3

this one is my personal favorite.
okay. right in the middle of the pond, we have the first stone thrown.
*SPLASH. *
Archaic Consciousness.
now each ripple outward is an undulation of ideas throughout time.
Layers of Magic, Myth, Rationale, Mysticism, Causation, Non Causation
(there might be more but that's all I was allowed to have that day)
Everything is truth. you could not create untruth if you tried. it's impossible.
Every story ever told is Real.

Then out there on the edge is unity consciousness. it's everything. it's the whole pond.
The place where emotion becomes devotion.

Each line you draw out of the spiral (whilst spiraling) is an aspect of your self (knowledge, for example, is a stream of consciousness. Creativity would be one. Self esteem another)

Our problems occur when we refuse to continue our souls journey. Look at that stream that looks like the letter T, just stopped off there. There's some really smart fellow, but with maybe no emotional intelligence, so just walks around appearing like a selfish jerk to everyone else (they call this creating a black hole on your map: you will fall through it every single time it comes around again to punch you in the face until you change your minds' ways.)

There's the Quale of a "teenager in love" there, caught somewhere between the layers of magic and myth. But I bet by now you guys have all heard that Love is Infinite and you actually are your own soul mate, and also everyone you will ever interact with is a fragmented aspect of your own self, a mirror to teach you something important about the whole picture of the big pond.

It was suggested to me that there are 26 basic streams thought one must develop to move through consciousness. I would posit that there are actually an infinite number and this model is spherically omnidirectional.

But 26 seems like a good number to start with. It was the number I kept pulling over and over and over and over again a few weeks ago, so I will enjoy it for the time being.
