Universal or Non-Local Consciousness vs. Local Mind: Part 3 - God vs. Ego

All potentialities or probabilities are of the ego, the certainty is of the universal consciousness also called as God (formless and not a person). The so-called potential or probability is merely an artifact of the multiplicity created by the schizophrenia of the local minds or egos. Full consciousness or awareness eliminates these hallucinations and fragmentations of the One wholesome universal reality (or God) via spontaneous or free-willed dissolution of the ego.

Uncertainty, probability and potentialities are not inherent in nature as it exists. They are artifacts of the unconsciousness of the ego and its schizophrenic way of looking and comprehending. Quantum mechanics also mistakes the measured uncertainty as the inherent uncertainty in nature – a fatal misrepresentation of the universal reality and an artifact of the incomplete, materialistic-only, and fragmented rather than holistic science. Even the quantum uncertainty or probabilities appear only when an observer looks at the quantum entity and collapses the certain wave-function of the unseen reality into a classical or worldly reality.

Clouds are of the ego, blue skies are of the universal consciousness. If someone can see only clouded skies, it is a symptom of the ego-veiled vision. The veil of clouds consisting of the relative (howsoever stubborn) realities of matter, time, space, uncertainty, evolution, and increasing entropy must be dissolved to allow vision of pure blue skies. Relative realities are not the absolute eternal universal reality but colored perceptions of it by the localized minds.

There are two types of wars – external and internal. The external wars of survival or dominance are connected to the inner wars generated by the relativity (good and bad, you and me, yours and mine, competition, and duality) of the local mind or ego. The relativities are driven by the following traits of the local-mind or ego – anger, greed, lust, attachment, and pride. When the ego dissolves, the relativities, fragmentation, and multiplicities end leading to the inner peace that also ends the outer war for the awakened.

The genuine wisdom, scientific and spiritual, is the one that reveals to us all the subtle tricks of the ego hiding behind the smokescreen of its very own ego-designed universe. Riding the mainstream band wagon of the paradoxical quantum mechanics only makes it worse. It is like tailgating a car with a nameplate – “Don’t follow me I am lost.”

Nature provides us continuous clues to the universal reality. These clues are sufficient for the wise to awaken but may not be sufficient for the stubborn ego. A mere shadow of the whip is sufficient to the intelligent horse. On the other hand, one could beat a dead horse (ego) to eternity; it would never wake up and run. The dead horse is not just stubborn, it’s unconscious. It needs compassion and not a whip.
