I believe consciousness is the ground of all being which enables all being and is all being. In trying to explain the basics of confederation philosophy to others I often use the word consciousness instead of love because love is such an overused, limited and variously interpreted word in our society and world.
The more I am understanding the new consensus that is evolving. I also have an interest in Shinto, and the basic concept is, "Everything" that is a lifeform is "Consciousness". At one time I even believed that inanimate objects such as rock had some form of self-awareness, although I now question that theory. There are those who are now saying, that an operating system, such as a solar system could have a form of consciousness, (not to be confused as a single rock or mountain). The entity of consciousness incorporating the solar system as a whole. Then we take it to the next stage of the galaxy, and then the universe. I watched a video on YouTube last night that speculated that fact. I believe a tree has some form of self-awareness, (although not as we know it). We only have self-awareness from the five senses. A tree does not have senses, (as we know it), although they could in other forms. You will have no argument from me. I am, (therefore I AM).
Each of the seven densities represents a step in evolution and has an overarching theme or set of lessons to be learned.
Elemental matter being 1st density is learning the lessons of red ray, which is the development of awareness and life.
Second Density is the lesson of orange ray which is learning to become self aware as an individual part of the creator.
Third density is the yellow ray refinement of self awareness and the making of the choice, embroiled in interactions with other selves.
Technically to have self awareness and be of the nature of evolving thru the densities requires third density at a minimum, or able to graduate from second. This does not mean that inanimate objects like rocks and air do not have some type of consciousness, just one which we have trouble understanding because it would be a rudimentary form of awareness.
Similarly there is no reason that planets cannot have their own consciousness and even solar systems and galaxies. These are the Sub Logos of creation and exist in all densities and decide the parameters of the creation within their bounds.
