Sustaining Consciousness
concept of Global Collective Consciousness
Read above two posts diving into this one.
Universe, as we know is a continuous space. In this hypothesis, which might as well be an reality we can believe in, is that everything is alive, its the inherent universe as one. However, the complexity of the systems builds up, leading to individual entities which we (the part of the universe) sees as conscious. Perhaps there is a threshold to which we call entities that we first isolate from the environment in our heads, and call it beings that are conscious, that exist in this universe. Consciousness is much like entropy, the harboring of information, which is felt, However, how does one individual feel that is different from the rest, but in my experience, there is some rhythm found, and common pressure felt among all beings together. Here where I live, every year as spring comes after the winter, its as if most things come alive and there is more usual energy felt in my mind and body. Sometimes, I see two events that possibly seem correlated, however they seem impossible to happen with casual sense and what information is known, but the relation sometimes is striking to my conscious.
If there is only energy and space-time, or flowing energy and space (which seems more accurate), as matter is trapped energy, and space is what energy occupies, but where does the imagination come from?, the conscious existence in this universe. Its as if,
We create ideas only to stay away from everlasting (can turn to boring) fundamental reality, to delve into more interesting unknown conscious (new for self and ultimately universe) experience, but we are also the flow of the universe. Its as if a being is grown into, as it understands more of reality, it gets more confused and logically arrives to more general explanation of its experience.
So in all, it feels like if this were true, then a bee is less conscious than a human, but dolphins and elephants can have higher conscious density (maybe), but neither are not on land with working limbs and ergonomics limits them as compared to humans. On the other hand there are chimpanzies which have limbs resembling us, but as humans have rapidly learned to socialize and communicate (by streak of a chance) somewhere along the evolution recently on cosmic time scale, and have learned the form of intelligence through education and culture from having qualities such as curiosity, etc.
Summer feels more alive than winter. Is it the motion of people and nature, is it the new leaf and grass growing (i.e. moving and spreading its complex feeling around?) its a change large enough and is felt by a peaceful mind, an inner feeling, more vast than a vibe, at the back of the head which engulfs all of the experi, maybe its the surrounding nature itself,

Fabric of space folds upon itself, the create matter : quarks, leptons (electrons), hadrons (protons, neutrons,..), atoms, molecules, huge molecules or polymers, and large (micro) structures, even larger (tiny) structures, to small structures and large structures we see around.
However, the things we see, which are non-living have vastly low complexity than a human.
A chunk of iron is just iron, while human has 100trillion neurons each with complex behavior, so the sentience is prominent within the vast complexity, and insignificant in low complexity.
A rock does not hold a close form, as we see, so rock can be broken into pieces, but bee on the other hand is an close system of actions, when broken ceases to exist, but on lower level, all things like a sign pole give an effect on mental construct of mind, which when broken, also break mentally, or in the all-conscious plane.
All this reasoning only to capture the experience of the reality that I found, and if I couldn’t chase it far, it seems limitless, as the concept of all fades away and converges to oneness of flowing-energy-space, which is same everywhere in the universe. So in a way, rest of the part of the universe makes us, it provides us experience, us being the part of the universe, universe grows itself, evolves, what we so call through time.
maybe: Universe observes itself, through the ‘eyes’ or the perception it has created through being, senses its forms in color, sound, and being’s senses, wonder what lies beyond this universe…
At times when I felt ..
I am programmed the imaginary imagination there is, when it gets closer to real imagination, , it evolves into the real imagination, and provides the feeling of coming out from the imaginary world to the real world as an unique experience.
Sometimes it feels (feels = from pov my mind) there are glitches in this universe, (though its not a simulation, but by saying that the being gets a different conscious experience, which is cool as well … maybe; also if you bend the definitions of simulation, you might as well call everything that exists an simulation, as computer when simulates, is working in reality, moving electrons here and there, and its just a concept redefined in the head, ofc such reality is also as correct as the perception only stays in the head, call it whatever you want, it is what it is.), or they only feel it because the life has been vast and complex…
self observation is important to establish the trust that there is, for example, out of curiosity I needed to take an MRI scan just to see if my brain is normal, and it turns out it looks like its been shown by the biology books. Self doubt is obvious on what one is, as conscious itself naturally doesn’t focus on itself I guess (obsession channeled through curiosity of the self), so most of the population goes on, (though living an imagination experience), without knowing the deeper things and understanding , which may or may not make life easier. But surely they learn to exist in the steady state that they have acquired and learned and attained their place in this cosmos, and remind us of the richness and vastness of experience there is. Imagine a person’s consciousness as a sample point from all-conscious space that could exist, and as a mathematician, the spaces, the value of existing assigned equally to all conscious states, and universe exists, evolves from one state to another, as a kind of universe that exists, though, wonder what happens beyond it, in so called hypothetical multiverse if there is (even if there isn’t, it would still give a different conscious experience just by believing it, and makes a life little bit more exciting even if there is nothing to be found, but I may be wrong here, I just don’t know).
