What is truly meant by consciousness, or what is the principle back of that term? There are many ideas which cannot be expressed properly for lack of words, or lack of terms. The word consciousness is really derived from the Latin root scio, to know, and con, together; so the word consciousness from the derivative meaning would signify: to know together. We use the term generally in the sense of being conscious of a fact. That is, consciousness means knowing an object, as it were; knowing something. But the word consciousness really indicates two things-subject and object. It implies the duality of existence. There is one who is the knower, the subject, the ego, the perceiver. I know it; I am conscious of it; I perceive it; I think about it. Therefore there is always the subject, the ego-I-as the background of any form of consciousness.

Shifting from a deep depression to a spiritual awakening experience and seeing Divinity everywhere is not something that anyone expects or that someone sets off to accomplish. But that is what happened to Lindsay as she does everything she can think of to feel better. It is quite an amazing journey of discovery. While this type of spiritual experience is not exactly main stream, she has been able to make sense out of her life story and connect with people who seem to have had similar experiences. To those who are awakening to an expanded version of self, Lindsay wants to say, “You are not alone. Everyone is waking up into greater consciousness and eventually to experience Oneness.” For those who are trying to make sense of this epic shift in consciousness that is happening through us—Lindsay offers some insight and choices. The message she wants to share from experiencing God or Cosmic Consciousness is this; “I want everyone to know that everything that happens is perfect. We are perfect and loved just the way we are. There is nothing that you need ever fear, because you are loved beyond anything that you can imagine. You are one with that love and all that is.”
