Consciousness as Awareness
Thursday Aug 31, 2023
Thursday Aug 31, 2023
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.
