What is consciousness? This is a question that philosophers and scientists have pondered for centuries. There is no single, universally accepted definition of consciousness, but it is generally understood to be the state of being aware of and responsive to one's surroundings.
One way to think about consciousness is as awareness. Awareness is the ability to perceive and experience things. It is the ability to be conscious of oneself and one's surroundings. Join Maetreyii Ma for an enlightening discussion of life and the surrounding love and chakra in each of us.

The yogis say that God and self are one! They say that God is omnipresent, has always been there and always will be there, for you, for all of us. It’s there for you your heart, for your mind and is always there in some form. The divinity is within you…and all around you, like the rain. Our talk today explores how we all maintain in the world around us, how we use God to shield us and surround us with infinite grace and how God removes the darkness from our lives.

Why do we choose to project a form onto the formlessness of the Divine? Often on a spiritual path, the student will have the Divine take on a form of their Ista Deva, a guru, a deity of some sort. This happens usually in the earlier stages of one's spiritual journey. But there comes a point when even these ideas of the Divine fade and one begins to know themselves as that all-encompassing essential being of pure love. Find out more about this journey of spiritual maturity in this podcast.
