that　you　are　a　specific　entity　that　should　make　a　splash　as　you　pass　through
the　world　of　people　and　things？
At　this　point　you　may　have　the　feeling；　“There’s　nothing　left　of　me。”　But
your　essence　is　something　which　you　may　experience　to　help　you　grow　into
higher　consciousness。　In　the　Living　Love　Way；　we　define　your　essence　as
your　Conscious…awareness。　To　understand　what　we　mean　by　Consciousawareness；
look　straight　ahead　of　you　and　notice　for　a　minute　the　images　that
are　being　transmitted　through　your　eyes。　Then　close　your　eyes。　Do　it　now
before　reading　on。　。　。
The　visual　sensations　disappeared　　but　your　Conscious…awareness　remained。
Behind　all　of　your　thoughts；　sensations；　and　images；　your　Consciousawareness
is　always　there。　Most　of　the　time　we　keep　it　smothered　under　a
ceaseless　Niagara　of　words；　activities；　thoughts；　and　sensations　which　keep
our　minds　analyzing；　calculating；　symbolizing；　talking；　remembering；　futuring；
and　pasting。
The　experiment　above　demonstrates　that　your　visual　field　and　your
Conscious…awareness　are　not　the　same。　Let’s　go　further。　Close　your　eyes。
Do　it　now　for　one　minute　before　reading　on。　。　。
What　were　you　aware　of？　When　you　shut　off　the　visual　input　to　your
bioputer；　you　probably　became　aware　of　sounds。　But　sounds　are　not　your
Conscious…awareness。　Suppose　you　go　to　a　pletely　dark；　quiet　place。
With　the　visual　and　sound　inputs　quiet；　you　may　now　begin　to　tune　in　to　your
body　on　deeper　and　deeper　levels。　You　can　experience　bodily　sensations　that
have　previously　been　up…staged　by　the　more　dominating　happenings　of　your
five　senses　and　the　stimulation　of　your　ideas；　thoughts；　and　words。　You　only
experience　your　essence　fully　when　you　have　quieted　your　emotion…backed
drama　and　the　torrent　of　addictive　stuff　churned　out　by　your　rational　mind。
In　other　words；　you　are　the　awareness　of　your　consciousness！　You　might
wish　to　visualize　a　television　screen　in　the　middle　of　your　head　where　all　of
your　thoughts；　images；　and　emotions　are　projected。　It’s　all　there　in　color　
including　sights；　sounds；　words；　and　thought。　It’s　all　going　by　on　this
imaginary　television　screen　in　the　middle　of　your　head。　But　you　are　not　the
television　screen。　You　are　not　the　images　or　stuff　on　the　screen。　You　are　that
which　is　conscious　of　being　aware　of　all　of　the　stuff　which　is　running　on　the
screen。　You　are　simply　the　watcher　of　the　stuff　on　the　screen。　As　Ram　Dass
puts　it；　“Observe　your　scene　from　a　quiet　corner　of　your　mind　in　which　there
is　nothing　to　do　but　‘see。’”　You　are　the　consciousness　that　just　“sees”　what　is
happening　on　the　screen。　Your　essence　is　pure　Conscious…awareness。
As　the　watcher　of　the　screen；　you　are　perfect。　The　screen　may　be　projecting　a
horrendous　movie　that　is　showing　all　kinds　of　pain　and　suffering　　on　the
screen。　Or　the　screen　may　reflect　a　happy　movie　that　shows　a　beautiful
sunset；　a　delightful　sexual　experience；　or　an　enjoyable　meal。　But　the　essential
you　is　the　pure　awareness　that　just　watches　the　stuff　go　by　on　the　screen　of
your　life。　Behind　what　you　think　you　are　　YOU　ARE！
The　essential　you　is　perfect；　has　always　been　perfect；　and　always　will　be
perfect！　There　is　nothing　you　can　do　to　alter　the　perfection　of　the　essential
you。　And　this　perfection　does　not　need　to　be　guarded　with　ego。　When　you
realize　who　or　what　you　really　are；　your　ego　can　relax　and　you　can　really
enjoy　your　life。　For　nothing　poses　either　a　threat　or　an　“absolute　necessity”
to　you　any　longer。　You　can　truly　enjoy　being　the　essential　you　　and　only
then　can　you　totally　and　continuously　enjoy　the　unfolding　drama　that　your　life
brings　you。
As　you　begin　to　experience　yourself　as　the　watcher　of　the　drama　from　the
Sixth　Center　of　Consciousness；　you　no　longer　labor　under　the　illusion　that
your　intellectual　effort；　will；　and　frantic　paranoid　watchfulness　are　necessary
to　keep　the　world　operating　properly。　Instead　you　experience　the　power；　the
deep　peace；　and　the　exquisite　beauty　of　letting　your　energy　harmonize　with
the　energies　around　you。　You　realize　that　by　tuning　in　to　the　Ocean　of　loving
energy　around　you；　you　can　have　far　more　security；　enjoyable　sensations；
effectiveness；　and　love　than　you　ever　need　in　order　to　live　a　continuously
beautiful　life。　And　as　you　learn　to　identify　the　essential　you　with　your
Conscious…awareness　（instead　of　with　the　social　and　individual　stuff　that　your
ego　has　backed　up　in　the　past）　you　deeply　and　continuously　enjoy　both　the
drama　of　your　life　and　the　perfect　being　that　you　naturally　are。
THE　SEVENTH　CENTER　OF　CONSCIOUSNESS　
THE　COSMIC　CONSCIOUSNESS　CENTER
You　will　observe　that　your　growth　towards　the　highest　Centers　of
Consciousness　may　fall　naturally　into　three　phases：
1。　As　your　consciousness　begins　to　dwell　more　and　more　in　the　Love　Center
and　Cornucopia　Center；　you　will　begin　to　develop　a　multi…centered
perception　that　will　enable　you　to　see　all　of　your　thoughts　and　actions　from
each　of　the　first　five　Centers。
2。　Continuing　this　multi…centered　awareness；　you　learn　to　witness　yourself　on
the　detached　Conscious…awareness　Center　（the　Sixth　Center）。　At　this
level；　there　is　no　longer　a　feeling　of　lower　or　higher　consciousness　　it　is
all　the　same　from　the　Conscious…awareness　Center。　And　then；
3。　You　go　behind　the　Conscious…awareness　Center　to　the　selfless；　unitive
space　of　the　Cosmic　Consciousness　Center。
The　Sixth　Center　of　Consciousness　is　characterized　by　being　aware　of
yourself。　There　is　your　essence　　your　Conscious…awareness　　and　there　is
the　daily　drama　of　your　body；　your　senses；　and　your　rational　mind。　You　see
all　of　your　drama　with　insight　and　perspective。　Although　this　is　a　peaceful；
beautiful　Center　of　Consciousness；　there　is　still　duality。　There　is　still　a　fine
line　of　separation　between　you　and　the　world。
On　the　seventh　level　of　consciousness；　one　is　catapulted　from　self…awareness
into　pure　awareness。　In　other　words；　one　is　no　longer　witnessing　oneself。
The　body；　mind；　senses；　and　Conscious…awareness　are　not　separated。　In　this
Center　of　Consciousness；　one　does　not　experience　security；　sensations；
power；　love；　and　Cornucopia　　one　is　security；　sensations；　power；　love；　and
the　fullness　of　life。　The　highest　state　of　consciousness　is　attained　by
reprogramming　what　is　called　the　“self。”　One’s　thought　activity　is　calmed。
The　direction　of　perception　has　shifted　from　subject…object　manipulation；
through　a　phase　of　loving　acceptance；　to　a　unity　with　everything　in　the
environment。
To　understand　this　distinction　between　experiencing　something　and　being
something；　consider　what　happens　when　you　have　an　intense　sexual　climax。
Up　until　the　time　of　orgasm；　you　have　been　experiencing　the　sexual
sensations　such　as　increasing　warmth；　pressure；　and　stimulation　of　your
sexual　organs。　You　are　experiencing　sex。　But　at　the　moment　of　sexual　climax
you　are　no　longer　the　experiencer。　You　may　no　longer　be　conscious　of
yourself　enjoying　sexual　happenings。　During　the　moments　of　an　intense
orgasm；　you　are　the　experience。　At　that　moment　you　may　feel　a　total　oneness
with　your　sexual　partner　　for　there　is　no　longer　the　experience　of　you　as　a
separate　consciousness。
At　the　Cosmic　Consciousness　level；　one　can　function　with　enormous
effectiveness　because　the　screens　that　limit　one’s　receptiveness　have　been
eliminated。　One　is　now　tuned　to　the　finer　nuances　of　the　surrounding　world。
One　is　open　to　the　broad　spectrum　of　all　of　the　finer　cues　that　the　world　has
been　sending　all　the　time　　but　which　were　previously　not　picked　up　by　a
consciousness　occupied　by　security；　sensation；　and　power　on　the　lower　levels；
and　love；　Cornucopia；　and　witnessing　on　the　intermediate　levels。
And　now　at　the　end　of　one’s　journey　to　higher　consciousness；　one　has
bee　a　god…like　being。　One　has　truly　achieved　one’s　birthright。　As　a　fully
conscious　being；　one　is　optimally　perceptive；　optimally　wise；　and　optimally
effective。　Because　one　has　transcended　all　personal　boundaries；　and
experiences　no　separation　from　anyone　or　anything　in　the　world；　serving
“others”　is　the　only　thing　to　do　in　life。　For　there　are　no　“others。”　Everything
is　experienced　from　an　“us”　space。
Perhaps　a　word　of　advice　may　be　helpful　here。　The　Seventh　Center　is
