Consciousness leaks into awareness. Causes what is called, knowledge.‏

Consciousness overwhelming, all-surpassing. Its limits never imagined before. In fact, its boundless nature mind-numbing, hurting the brain. It exposes the futility of the pursuits capitalist societies adhere to, renders meaningless the ideals of the very nature of the western civilization, out of which consciousness current notions were spawned out of.

Consciousness housed within the confines of the brain. The brain being built out of the specifications required to accommodate consciousness's enormous capacity. Renders the current notions of anthropic principle, dwarfs, barely touching base with the true extent consciousness is about.

Reductionist vs. holistic or side by side?

We have to break it apart and put it back again. We need to know what is made out of, how each little bit works, how it influences every other bit of the whole and how it is influenced by every bit of the whole. We do that with the knowledge that it works only if all is put back together again. Nothing is obsolete. Everything is needed no matter how inconspicuous, how insignificant it might appear to our senses, to our awareness, to our consciousness. It can only act as a whole.

And in the process we build our consciousness up.
