Covered , shrunken , budding , blooming, fully blossoming

Unlike the Darwinians who consider consciousness as chance events of neurons firing in the brain originating from a primordial slime , the  Vedas take an analytical look at consciousness within matter and  clearly demonstrate  consciousness being different  from  the gross and subtle influences that matter imposes upon it . The Vedas shows the path of  freedom  from the shackles of material existence and all its accompanying misery , birth , death , old age , disease,  misery arising from the mind , other living beings or nature itself.

Bohr , Schrödinger , Feynman , Teller, and Einstein also as physicists  examined consciouseness within the  responsive universe,one can say the Copenhagen agreement suggests that.  Unlike the gross biologists , the physicists look  at life’s  fundermentals in entirely different ways .

The Vedic terms for states of consciousness are ….ana maya, pranna maya , jnana maya , vijnana maya, and ananda maya .

In English terms, these can be compared to a flower throughout its life , first covered consciousness,  then shrunken consciousness, then budding consciousness, then blossoming consciousness, then fully blooming consciousness.

The animals and other various creatures are  categorised ,  they are considered to have covered consciousness, anu maya , and   the unthinking human who is living like a sophisticated animal without any philosophical position is in shrunken consciousness , pranna maya . The human who considers life and its purpose correctly in terms of having a philosophical outlook are considered to be in budding consciousness , jnana maya . The human who has realised to. some degree of the glory of consciousness in connections to Divinity is in blossoming consciousness , vijnana maya .  Finally, the human who has established a relationship in love with God is in fully blossoming consciousness. Ananda maya .

So literally, the science of consciousness and self realisation has been summarised, and each of these categories is  given a thorough analysis, and  progressive and systematic steps are given by various Vedic thinkers and teachers . Those steps are recommended according to specific stages of life , to suit . This enables and empowers everyone in their consciousness ,  thus step by step guidance . One should seek an expert who is in Ananda maya consciousness to help , or any person who is further progressed than ourselves will help by association.
