Be your own guru
conscious: Day-to-day awareness.So what IS the "straightforward" definition of consciousness in the East?
Or are we really talking about different ways of knowing? "Consciousness" is a can of worms!
Conscious: Awareness that there is more to it when you make a deep search.
IMHO, it is quite simple, no can of worms. The process also is quite simple. Abandon what you don't find supported by evidence.
Both are considered thruths in Advaita, but at different levels. 'I am' at the worldly level, 'I AM' at the absolute level, because there is no other.I wonder then if Affirmation is the I Am, or the purest form.
