# cosmos consciousness

 

 

 

Das Bewusstsein ist das Geschenk des Kosmos an alles, was zum Leben gehört. In Wahrheit existiert in unserer Welt nichts ohne Bewusstsein – die Vorstellung einer ‚toten Materie‘, wie sie die Naturwissenschaft postuliert, ist ein Irrtum. Nichts und niemand kann im Leben sein, ohne Bewusstsein zu besitzen. Das menschliche Denken ist dabei lediglich eine eigene Kategorie, die uns Menschen auszeichnet; das Bewusstsein selbst hingegen ist keine rein menschliche Eigenschaft, sondern durchdringt alles Sein.

 

 

 "What Europeans would have the courage to pool their resources to buy
land or other means to pull up fences and turn land back to the cosmos to
mend, declaring it belongs to none other than life? And fight for the right to
hand the land back, as well refuse their children educations intended to
prop up a state that exploits with endless development? To be willing to
have their children taught an alien language incorporating values far
removed from Western Civilization and its historical ideals?
Who, between the two communities preceding, would have the courage to
care for and depend on each other in a growing environment of trust where
the White child is educated no differently to the Red; where the only idea
worthy of spiritual reverence is the idea this world is not ours, it belongs to
all life, where we have clearly demonstrated to step out of place is to step
out of everything it could possibly mean to live in any positive way. And tell
everyone else ‘there is no place here for stupid’
Even with all of this accomplished, it falls short, if you cannot clearly grasp
your life is no more important than a beaver your ancestor either trapped or
traded for. There are no innocent parties. So, what is consciousness?
Certainly it is not the ‘self-aware’ preoccupied ego (‘it’s all about me’) of
European concept. Consciousness is the gift of the cosmos to an entity that
is an organism of many parts .. in which humans have become a cancer.
Consciousness is nothing more and nothing less." Ron T. West
