The Dimensions of Consciousness

In the evolutionary scale of the human creature coexisting dimensions, or levels of consciousness, which manifest in the here and now of its existence, however, the experiences of their day to day, they are extremely connected or conditioned by the consequences of their past or its expectations about the future, in the sense of moving today as if it were a mere parenthesis, between what was and what it longs to be.

Today, the society as a whole raises a number of measures pertaining to diminish the high level of violence seen in the attitude of children, attitudes that tend to bring overflows deemed unacceptable for harmonious coexistence in a society that prides itself as civilized and progressive.

The interesting thing about these discussions is that they seem to have focused on one aspect, among those who would lower the age of criminal responsibility of minors and those who claim that such a measure - lowering the age of accountability - not at all solve the problem and also would put the country into conflict with existing international standards on the rights of children and adolescents.

So we hear arguments about the best age to charge offenders behavior to social norms, claiming each other with very strong arguments about the need to "agiornarse" about the changes that have occurred in society as a result of the technological revolution and its impact on the sources of information, especially regarding the "rights of the minority."

We focus on the rights of each, and neglect all obligations related to the exercise of the right means, when we got to this point we are at the border of two dimensions, we might well call "the double entry door "that is, rights are balanced with the obligations assumed under the same act, both values ​​add up to equal, any difference between them, mean that we have fallen into default or guilty of abuse.

We have learned that man is essentially a social being, which means that their survival, the mere fact of being alive, is the unavoidable consequence of the action and will of other congeners, perhaps other living beings are born and developed in isolation, but in our case, if we are able to act as humans, is inevitably caused by other humans in some way made it possible, notwithstanding evident from this statement, we live in a world where we have not reached the dimension of thanks and gratitude to those who have made it possible to have some notion of the true meaning of "Being"

From the beginning of time, we have been taught some lessons that still, despite the time elapsed, we have failed to understand in all its dimensions, we refer to the knowledge of our origins and our reason for being on this planet as we welcomed temporary residents, like passengers in transit to other places, whose passage clearly marks the date of arrival, but nothing specific about the date, time of departure and where we're headed.

Religious thought, tells us that we are "living souls" and when asked what is the soul? We reply that the soul is the combination of the physical body, inherited from our earthly parents, and spirit, which is our true Self, which has come into this world directly from the presence of God.

Again implicitly tells us that come from another side, which is to say that we are aliens, and in this state where we are, take care, as a means of transportation, a physical body, that is: we have a body But we are not only the body, as if the body does not mean anything other than a vehicle in which we conduct through life, like any car, which model is best for more equipment you have, if we enter into it, would be unable to move.

Those who have purchased a car to move, we must somehow learn to use commands, demonstrating through tests and aptitude tests that we are able to drive it, only then we can integrate to traffic in conjunction with other means of transportation, and once authorized to do so, we impose strict rules to control us through signs indicate very precise, the rights and obligations that we respect the move.

So the first lesson we learn from humans, is that the vehicle we use is a heritage, a legacy, which are beneficial owners of an asset, we have not paid for it, and to use it, we demonstrate that we are able to lead, no one asks a qualifying, but the mere fact of trying to move along the path where other fellow transit, means that we take responsibility to respect the rules for proper circulation.

The degree of evolution of our consciousness is evident in our social behavior in our relationship with him or the others who make up our environment, when? In the here and now, is not taking refuge in the events of the past or postponing our actions for what to expect in the future and past events and the future were simply not there, so that if we do not enjoy the fact to be present, unless we assume our fair share in the daily events, time, that does not stop, will continue its relentless march, regardless of our deluded alleged escape.

Our return, as happens, you can be full of gratitude for the experience, for the happenings of each new morning has, like a stage curtain imaginary, being partners in this wonderful divine work of creation, whose script and argument is transmitted from generation to generation, like drops of rain or waves, which will never be the same yet look the same.

If for any reason not attempt to describe feeling as if your days are spent in a succession of complaints, if you are inadequate, or otherwise, as part of a calendar whose leaves are piled at the edge of the bin of your life, then, my friend, which will have to depart from souls, longing for what once might have been wandering amid the vastness, covered by the dust of the past that prevents you from seeing the bright light by which you came .

They say a few words to the wise is sufficient, if the reading of this article is somewhat difficult to understand, then you should look at the edge of your consciousness, the level of development you have achieved and what were the dimensions that you inner being visited.

One morning many years ago, in the month of September, in my younger days, I was sitting on the seashore watching a group of people, waiting, reverent dawn when the sun emerged on the horizon, all broke the silence with the solemn words: "I remain."
