Episode notes
Focused Consciousness
- Consciousness can concentrate on a single object or expand to include a broad spectrum.
- You experience only what you focus on, limiting experience if narrowly focused.
Expanding Consciousness
- A narrowly focused consciousness leads to a limited personal mind and ego.
- Expanding consciousness involves ceasing to contract it, not actively stretching it.
Ego Mind
- The personal mind, or ego mind, is a subset of the infinite mind, limited by focused experiences.
- Your self-concept is built upon what you observe and hold onto, not the entirety of your experiences.
