The Science and Art of Awakening Human Consciousness – Session Consciousness

This session will initially explore consciousness through the five-level panchamaya yoga model. We will also experientially and briefly touch upon the science of consciousness in meditation with reference to the work of cognitive neuroscientists Dr Anil Seth and Dr Donald Hoffman. Most importantly, we will explore the field of consciousness that is beyond body, mind, birth, life & death. This field of consciousness is what the great yogis have explored throughout the ages, taking us to a deeper understanding of what science has not yet proven: the recognition that consciousness and energy are the same and not separate.

“The whole universe, inside and out, are manifestations of the same Universal Force: ChitShakti.”

The deep spiritual teaching lies in the recognition that the World isn’t always going to give us what we want. Our minds are constructing a reality of what we think we want. Therefore it is wise that we remain open, without expectation, to the moment unfolding right in front of us. What is unfolding in front of us is the reality of where our consciousness meets the moment that just is.

Eckhart Tolle
