Uhmmm, I think consciousness exists on its own playing field outside of all.
It interfaces with the mind body system on the background field of where your imagination and thoughts reside.
Imagine for a second that place behind your eyes – that ethereal space of thought and transaction of interface with reality, where you see pictures, words and so forth, so on.
That space is the actual space where you interface with God.
It can be clouded by your own creation and clash with the feedback loop with God.
If you could quiet your thoughts and interjection, you could listen clearly to "THE VOICE OF GOD"… as grandiose that sounds.
Some people use meditation to achieve a connection and conversation with this entity, while some mildly stumble upon it through the psychedelic experience.
Discipline or Hedonism, the choice is clear.
One is unstable and volatile – the other requires too much dedication and discipline.
However without the discipline the strength and suddenness of the interface can lead to insanity.
