Thread: What is the conscious ?

Dreams are supposed to be subconscious, but in lucid dreams they become part of the conscious.

What about the sleep time other than REM dream time? What's the brain doing then?... the parts we don't usually remember or are even aware of.

In practicing dream recall, I've been able to learn to recall some of the non-dreaming sleep time thoughts and begin to hear my inner voice in full awareness,... while my body is asleep. Not that I always “understand” it, but,… the mind never rests...

They’ve tried to define it in terms of brain waves too, but it falls apart when contrasted to awareness.

I've heard it said that the heart is the second brain. I've heard it said that the body is the subconscious and I've heard it said that the spirit is the subconscious. I've heard it said that consciousness is what we see with AND what we see,… and that consciousness goes where it is directed.

It's a hard thing to define... an enigma.

It's all we really have...

I don't know if this will help or not but...
