Our consciousness is a spectrum, a rainbow, where do you want to draw the divisions? It is arbitrary.

You're welcome @leoplaw :) Yeah, more than often I've noticed that the labels are just labels because we humans don't understand anything beyond that point. I mean, we used to call earth flat before we realized it is a spherical planet. :)
Human consciousness by its very nature leaves out more than what our senses take in. It is how we stop being overwhelmed and allows us to function.
Very true. Often I wonder if it's not just about being overwhelmed, but more like a practical way to live. I mean we evolved for this exact reason, to survive. Nothing more. I assume that's same for our consciousness. shrug
One is the consequence of the other. If we were overwhelmed, we would not be able to practically or efficiently live and hence die out. We only have to look at the broken dysfunctional people on the street. They are overwhelmed by certain issues and cease to function in a healthy manner.
However, if we can integrate a certain amount of extra awareness, it then gives a distinct advantage.
Yup, well said. I agree. It's all about being in balance and being pragmatic, once that's nailed down - anything extra is awesome.
