It
occurred to me recently that I didn’t have a definition of the term “Christ
Consciousness.” I only had a knowingness
that I couldn’t explain much beyond the consciousness and actions and words of Jesus
Christ being the example of it. In fact, a mistake people make, seems to me, is
not considering the words claimed to be those of Jesus Christ from a cosmic
perspective.
When
I did an Internet search of the term “Christ Consciousness,” I found various
meandering words, but not much in the way of simple, concrete words. I did find that Edgar Cayce, a psychic and mystic
who worked from Virginia Beach, Virginia much of his life, saw Christ
Consciousness as the pattern set by the example of the life of Jesus
Christ. That definition matched my
thoughts more than any other (although not my full knowingness). I also found in the results of my Internet
search that “Christ Consciousness” is considered by many to be synonymous with “Cosmic
Consciousness.”
When contemplating "Christ Consciousness" later, I remembered Norman Paulsen’s 1980 book titled “Christ Consciousness,” which is among my permanent collection—not to be loaned or given away as I have done with many others. Here’s an excerpt from the introduction:
Christ
Consciousness, or Cosmic Consciousness is a higher state of consciousness than
self-consciousness, or simple-consciousness, which pervades the races of
humanity on this planet today. Christ Consciousness is, in fact, 180 degrees
away from self-consciousness and exists upon the highest plane of reality. In
humans, there are three states of consciousness in evidence today.
The
first is simple-consciousness, which is possessed by human beings and also
higher forms of the animal kingdom. In this state, the entity is aware of its
body, its needs, and the fact that it is separate from all other forms of life
around it. Simple-consciousness is driven by instinct (Mother’s and Father’s
nature), to go and acquire food, shelter, and bodily comforts. Simple-consciousness
groups together for survival and procreation.
Self-consciousness
is all of this and more. Self-consciousness begins to fully express
selfishness, for it distinctly sees the physical body as totally separated from
the creation which surrounds it. Self-consciousness begins to store mental
images of all which it beholds and now desires to possess. These mental images
are expressed in verbal languages and writings (i.e., the arts, crafts, sciences
and religions). These self-consciousness abilities raise the creature human far
above the highest state of simple-conscious expression. In fact, an enormous distance separates the
two.
Christ
or Cosmic Consciousness is the third state and is as far above
self-consciousness, as self-consciousness is beyond simple-consciousness. In
this state, the creature human is now aware of the two former states of
consciousness, as both are still functioning within Christ Consciousness.
Therefore, full understanding of all life-forms and images is now available [emphasis added]. Christ or Cosmic Consciousness implies [emphasis added] an
illumination or understanding of the whole cosmos, the expanding Sphere of
Creation. Along with this tremendous
enlightenment comes the intellectual illumination, the incredible ability to
speak and describe all which it sees as if from the center of all created
images and thought forms. The creature human has now become a member of a new
species on earth. . . . There is a quickening of the moral sense which is a
contribution to the whole human race along with the enhanced intellectual
powers; the most profound of all is the soul’s sense of immortality, the
consciousness of eternal life. This is not a conviction that one shall have
this, but the absolute consciousness that one already has it. . . .”
What
I have learned over the years of reading, studying, discussing, experiencing,
assisting others, etc. is that people can be of Christ Consciousness in varying
degrees. It’s not he or she is or he or she isn’t; it’s not all or nothing.
Norman
Paulsen’s “Christ Consciousness” is 496 pages, with about 100 illustrations,
drawings, and maps, and is easy to read. It tells the story of his life and experiences
(beginning with coming into the body as fully conscious and remaining so) and
relates the thoughts and experiences of others.
Some of the 48 chapters are: Life with Yogananda; A Vision of Christ; A
Face-to-Face Encounter with “I Am That I Am”; The Ancients in Central and South
America; The Gods from Space; Vision of a Ghost Ship; The Initiation in the
Desert; The Destruction of Mu and the Western Civilizations; The Creation of
the Race of Adam; The Baptism of Fire. I’ve
read it at least two times over the years and read parts of it many times more.
It is still available if you’re interested.
