(Energy Fanatics) Consciousness is understood by most people as being aware, but there is a lot more to consciousness than just being in a state of awareness. Consciousness is one of the hardest things to define because of its mysterious and metaphysical properties. At your current state of evolution, it is impossible for you to understand all the aspects of consciousness. However, you can still understand many of its different states by studying how it affects your perception and the structures of reality.
Is consciousness energy?
The simple definition of consciousness is
that it is basically energy that is aware. How could that be you may
ask? To understand how consciousness and energy are basically two of the
same thing, you need to study the effects of particles. To help you
comprehend this concept, we need to turn our attention to a famous
scientific experiment done by a group of scientists at the Weizmann
Institute in Israel. This famous experiment is known as the “double
slit” experiment.
In the double slit experiment, scientists
shot some electrons through two slits and discovered something strange
about the properties of electrons. They found that electrons could
simultaneously be in a wave and particle state. The strange thing about
this experiment was that when the electrons were shot through the two
slits without anyone watching them, they produced an interference
pattern and became waves. When they were observed, they went through the
slits as particles, causing the interference pattern to diminish. If
you are confused, watch the following short video and it should help
clear things up.

The double slit experiment showed evidence
that particles and molecules are conscious to some degree since they are
aware. Some scientists have taken this experiment further and found
that the unified field in which reality exists and grows in is even more
conscious. The more they examined the deeper layers of the unified
field, they realized that it was more aware, conscious, and intelligent
than particles. Since matter doesn’t really exist beyond the subatomic
level, it is logical to say that it must be energy that is conscious!
Once we connect the dots and take a step back
and look at the big picture, consciousness and energy are basically the
same thing. When we break matter down to the level of particles, it
becomes mostly empty space. The remaining space that seems to be not
empty is actually made of energy. In other words, everything in the
Universe is made of energy. Do you still remember the definition of
energy in high school physics? Energy is a “substance” that can’t be
created or destroyed. It can only be transformed from one form to
another. Since everything is made of only energy, then it is energy that
is conscious, not the matter-based brain.
Why do you have consciousness?
One of the main reasons why you have
consciousness is to be aware that you are a living sentient being, so
that you can co-create. However, there is a lot more to it than just
being aware. To have a better understanding of why you have this
intelligent energy, you need to study the different layers of the mind,
such as the subconscious and conscious.
The subconscious state is where the mind is
in a dream-like free floating state. It is the safe deposit box of all
your memories and experiences, good and bad. It stores feelings and
impressions created by all the experiences in your life. This state of
mind operates below your conscious awareness, which is why you aren’t
usually aware of its activities. Most of the information about your
environment is processed by your subconscious, which is why you don’t
see your environment as energy. Instead, you see it as solid objects
with beautiful colors and textures. For more information on how reality
works, read this article titled What is Reality: How It Relates to Your Well-Being.
The state of your mind that you are
consciously aware of is the conscious. This state allows you to be aware
of your conscious thoughts and actions, giving you perceptions of your
environment. Unlike the subconscious mind, the conscious mind processes
information about your environment in a linear method, allowing you to
experience life in a way that you can understand.
Your consciousness is what gives you the
ability to become aware of your environment. It is your consciousness
that dictates your actions and its subsequent consequences. It is what
makes you alive and therefore it is the essence of who you are. Without
consciousness, you and your reality will cease to exist since everything
is made of this intelligent energy.
