Chapter Two
Super Consciousness
Nobody has been able to prove that the Creator exists. Many theologians and some scientists have done their best to prove that there is a Super Consciousness that controls all creation, but they have not succeeded in convincing everyone. Some people look for a tangible proof through the five senses of touch, smell, sight, sound and taste – the ‘I have to see it to believe it’ approach. Some people look for miracles. Even if they see one, however, they still struggle to believe what they see, and thus keep searching for more proof. Others turn to science seeking a more objective, seemingly rational understanding, hoping that science will come up with the answers. It seems that we may never find the tangible evidence and facts that prove beyond doubt ‘what’ this Creative Force is. Perhaps an easier way to understand is by exploring our faith, but this is too subjective for many; it does not satisfy the proof seekers, because the so-called hard evidence cannot be found here. Whether we like it or not, however, some faith is essential if we want to evolve to the higher levels of consciousness. While it does not serve us to have ‘blind’ faith – the kind which requires us to believe in something without questioning its validity – we do, nevertheless, need some faith that there is a Higher Power or Consciousness controlling everything, even if we do not understand it.
A good starting point would be to postulate that there exists a Super Consciousness. This book begins with the premise that there is a Creative Force that created everything, and that one of the characteristics of this Force is that It expresses Itself throughunconditional love. If we experience this unconditional love, therefore, we will come to know a part of this Super Consciousness. By knowing a part of It, hopefully, we will be inspired enough to seek more. This type of love means that there are ‘no strings attached’: we don’t have to earn it, and even if we reject it, its flow will not alter. Its flow is the rhythm of life that endlessly flows throughout creation with an energy that is gently pulling everything towards it like a magnet. Even though this pull is lovingly gentle, we cannot even begin to comprehend its power. The more we experience the love, the more we see this truth; the more we reject it, the more isolated and lonely we become.
