More of Consciousness

Energy predominates in childhood and exhibits ceaseless activities. Hormones predominate in the youth and give way to art and lust. Emotions predominate during middle age and inculcate emotions and compassionate services. But one has to transcend all this seeing the impact of forces on the body and mind. One should consciously think, if needs of body are limited, needs of self, the conscious can never be unlimited since all the requirements are only physical and material.
Our conscious self is not sum total of body, mind, feeling, thoughts and basic consciousness. Just like a complete flower has many non-fragrant and colorless ingredients, consciousness is not something separate from matter. In fact the subjects and object of consciousness arise simultaneously. There is no separation of body and mind, cause and effect, name and features etc.
We should practice going within us to visit peace regularly. Our brain is translator of consciousness which acts, speaks and works everywhere. We should think independently and infinitely, this gradually connects with consciousness. We should also practice to focus our mind away from clutters of life and think of peace and inner consciousness. One should also have firm devotion to truth and never refute laws of nature in day to day life. It is always better to accept and admit our responsibilities knowing our strengths and weaknesses and let the consciousness illuminate our path.
