Figures & data

Figure 1. Universal Mind, the formless, spiritual energy behind all life, the Infinite Intelligence, pure Oneness funnels into our being as pure consciousness (our soul, our spiritual essence). This pure consciousness has the qualities of peace, love, and wisdom. In this pure state, we have natural mindfulness and are completely one with the moment. Universal Mind gives us the power to have Consciousness and the power to create Thought. The thoughts we create with that power enter into our consciousness and, depending on the quality of that thinking, contaminate it to varying degrees, giving us an infinite variety of levels of consciousness that gradually descend from as close to pure consciousness as we can get in human form to the dregs of range, terror, depression, and hate created by us, from our own ability to think up a personal reality. All levels are also part of the Allness of Mind, because Mind is behind and IS All things. Thus, Mind is All things, and therefore it must also be One, and as One, it is the purest part of itself.
