Chapter Six
Different Points of View:
Universal Consciousness
and
Separate Consciousness

    The concepts of Universal Consciousness, and separate self consciousness are central to the teachings of the Children of the Law of One™ , and they will be referred to throughout the book.  So we’ll start with the teachings about consciousness,  and go on from there.

         Almost every time I asked Zain a “deep question”, he would also refer me to particular ancient texts to read in the library. He would say, “read these first, meditate, then come speak with me again.”

         When I first came to the monastery, I didn’t really understand the meaning of “Universal Consciousness”.  I certainly thought I did though.  I thought I understood it clearly.  Sure, I had an intellectual grasp of some of it.  But it was weak nonetheless.  I eventually realized you could never really understand it, until you finally experienced Oneness with the Universal Spirit.  In fact, you can’t really fully understand much of anything until you achieve that.  Yet it may help many readers if I relate my earlier question and answer sessions with Zain. So from here on out, I will present many of the Children’s teachings in that format. 

         It was the day of the new moon.  I was on my way to my womb to meditate after a long exhausting class.  I turned a corner, and standing there, “accidentally”, was Zain.  The course I was taking, and particularly this day’s class, had left me with a nagging question about Separate, and Universal Consciousness, which I was going to try and understand better in my meditations.
