Human Consciousness

The consciousness within human beings and nonhuman animals is exactly the same. The consciousness within human beings is more pure than consciousness within animals. The consciousness within human beings and animals can also be termed as our soul atman within. It is the existence of soul atman within our heart that is termed as consciousness within the body.

In the absence of consciousness... the body of human beings and animals is just inert matter! A body becomes conscious only when a soul atman manifests it. And why would a soul atman manifests a body? In the cosmic crux of life... it is our soul atman within that manifests a body and not vice versa. Every soul atman manifests a series of life forms to work out its karma.

The consciousness within human beings and animals is indestructible in nature. When arrives the time for death of the body... this cosmic consciousness leaves the body to manifest another life form. As long as consciousness remains within the body... one lives! Devoid of consciousness... the body is just a mass of flesh!

Diving deep into the domain of Cosmos... this cosmic consciousness initially manifests the form of an amoeba (single cell formation)... the first manifestation in the cosmic life cycle! It subsequently evolves into multi-cell formation, then insect life, plant life, animal life and finally the form of a human being. The cosmic consciousness pervades every living body.

Finally in the form of a human being only this cosmic consciousness liberates forever from the cycle of birth and death. The moment a human being gains enlightenment (kaivalya jnana) and finally salvation (moksha)... the cosmic consciousness regains its pure pristine original form and leaves for the abode of God... the kingdom of God (aka Vaikuntha in Hinduism).

The cosmic consciousness in human beings reaches its highest level of purity. In the form of human beings if the percentage of impurity in the cosmic consciousness is 10%... then in animal form it is above 30%. All dross within having removed... the cosmic consciousness finally regains its cosmic lustre. It practically becomes hundred percent pure before leaving for kingdom of God.
