In this video about questioning beliefs, we examine the idea that consciousness is limited. For most of us this concept has been reinforced by our culture since infancy - but what happens when we take a closer look?
Rupert says: ‘Our culture has breastfed us the idea that consciousness is derived from, located within and limited to our bodies since the day we were born, so that image is profoundly etched into our minds. But if we want to know about consciousness, we have to ask the one that knows consciousness, not the one that thinks about it. So, if you, consciousness, ask yourself about the experience of being aware, what happens?
‘Does awareness say, “I don’t know whether I’m limited or not?” That’s what the mind says. But what is consciousness’s experience of itself? . . . You now have a choice [between consciouness’s direct experience and what the mind believes about consciousness]. And whichever choice you make will have a profound effect on your life. More profound than anything you have experienced to date.’
