Consciousness has two possibilities: In the first it can become a bright light in you, so bright that even the sun will look pale compared to it. It can be like 1000 suns have risen suddenly, and when you look it with no mind, all you see is eternal light. It is all joy, pure, uncontaminated, unpolluted. It is simple bliss, innocent. It is wonder. Its majesty is indescribable, its beauty inexpressible and its benediction inexhaustible. The other possibility is you can become self-conscious, and then you fall. Then you become a separate entity from the world. Then you become an island, defined, well-defined. Then you are confined because all definitions confine. You are in a prison cell, and the prison cell is dark, utterly dark. Theres no light, no possibility of light, and the prison cell paralyzes you. Self-consciousness becomes a bondage and consciousness becomes freedom. So drop the self and be conscious. That is the whole message of all of all the ages, past, present, and future. ~ Osho
