What are we?
What is the structure of our being? What's our consciousness?
Our ideas, our attitude, our opinions, our ideals, our judgements all these are contents of our CONSCIOUSNESS.
One may invent the idea of superconsciousness but all ideas are part of CONSCIOUSNESS. Thought has put together ideas, all ideas are movements of thought.
Why is consciousness continuous and not ending moment to moment?
Human CONSCIOUSNESS has given tremendous importance to the PLEASURES and DESIRES. When pleasures are denied we become violent. Desires and pleasures go together.
ILLUSIONS exist as long as there is DESIRES for PLEASURES, all these three dominate our CONSCIOUSNESS, which we call LIFE.
Through accumulation of KNOWLEDGE we LEARN and then ACT according to the past accumulated KNOWLEDGE. Our knowledge is always limited, incomplete so learning and actions based on incomplete knowledge will inevitably create illusions.
Insight is not based on past knowledge hence learning and actions from insight are spontaneous, harmonious and complete. Insight is possible only when there is no prejudice, no motive, no authority, no actions based on the past.
One must observe that spiritual authorities are the most dangerous to freedom. Without freedom there can't be insight.
When there is insight then without suppressing desires for pleasures and without connecting to the super consciousness any one can realize the Truth behind all illusions.
No one can learn, teach, help, guide to get the Insight but insight is very much possible only through our detachment from all known authorities.
