Energy and Cognition in Consciousness
To be awakened is to see
what we don't see in a given moment.
Consciousness is energy
and cognition. Energy is used by the cognition aspect of our consciousness ‘to
cause’ and ‘to act’.
Energy is the way to
express cognition.
Energy without cognition
is like will without intelligence. We need will and cognition to act appropriately.
To express something
fully we always require a combination of elements or factors, which in the
consciousness are: energy, cognition and consciousness.
We always need on top of
this, logic and reason which is what the mind supplies us with.
We basically need all
five aspects: will, mind, emotion, action and word. Human beings are all effect
orientated, meaning we only see the effect and not the causes.
Mind and Will
This is because it is
much more difficult to see the cause. It requires much more energy and
cognition to find the causes of things. There are many reasons for this, one is
that there is a total lack of introspection.
The logic, reasoning and
justification of the mind come from the demon of the mind.
Of all the factors, the
emotion is the most decisive. Emotion becomes our reality. We need to slow down
the emotions. Anyhow, the consciousness is faster than the mind.
Only when the will is
conditioned do will, desire and mind become one.
Discernment
Discernment is a faculty
of the mind, however when the mind is conditioned, we lose our discernment.
Discernment allows us to
see the consequences in the future. For us to have discernment we need some
separation of our consciousness from our will, mind and emotion. The consciousness
is invested in our will and our will organizes our mind and our mind flows into
emotion and action.
We have to create the
ability to not stop the flow of life. When we work on will there comes a point
where we must only have good-will.
What happens is that the
force of will descends down to us and we channel it wrongly in an ill-natured
way against others which is ill-will. We must be aware of what we don’t like.
Because this could be an expression of what we have of ill-well.
