Not many people I meet or associate with have given much thought to their consciousness. What it means to them or what its scope means for their ego’s relationship to it both in itself and to its content. But if we meditate or take an interest in our psychologically reflective logic, it immediately becomes something that we must relate to in our own unique way. Because in one sense it is a psychic place. An embodiment of the formless life we have in relationship to a larger psychic realm of life. In another the place where we store the ego’s relationships to our experiences. An interpersonal space where we encounter the world from within. A place which is empty in itself. It has two inlets. One comes from the relationship the ego has to our senses. The other from the relationship it has to our psyche and the inlet of the preconscious reality into it. The place we originally also come from before we entered this world. Together these inlets form a common constant flow in our consciousness. Mental events and phenomena originating beyond consciousness are then mixed with, and meet experiences from our five senses that the counterpart of our ego in the preconscious, the second center, or ”sixth” sense uses when their opposites encounter each other in our psychic life and unites them into insights for the ego to absorb in order for the scope of consciousness to grow by releasing and assimilating its inherent energy. Experiences that will ultimately also dissolve our conditioning. The ego’s way of habitually separating out what it wants to constitute as the totality of our conscious content. But if we identify with its contents, consciousness remains in its original state. Everything in it turns into temporary outbursts of an erratic ego that becomes defensive, restless and appears confused and unfocused as impressions and impulses turn into material objects without any context or affiliation beyond it.
