The Essence Of Consciousness

Consciousness is reality, which all believe;
I think; therefore, I am:
there’s little, beyond; which all concede;
it is the epitome of man.

But what is the substance of which we’re aware;
does the world, surround us; or are we within;
does consciousness extend beyond here and there;
and, where does it actually begin?

Consciousness is reality, universal;
a substance of energy from light;
awareness came about; without rehearsal;
suddenly; in the dead of night.

The essence of consciousness is thought;
all of us exist in the present time;
though, both past and future are taught;
the seasons are memories sublime.

Consciousness is not a linear existence;
within it; not a near and far;
creating a reality in a cycle of persistance;
orbiting a medium sized star.

The essence of truth lies in its foundation;
Consciousness created new thought;
beings, he begat; destined for salvation;
new consciousness; He wrought.

The essence of consciousness is universality;
life’s cycle returns; to where all begun;
love’s wisdom is expressed as a duality;
the circle of life becomes One.
