Second Post: Psychological Moon or Permanent Centre of Gravity in the Consciousness - (875)

What is it?

This post addresses the question of what is it really.

Question

What is the psychological moon or the permanent centre of gravity ion the consciousness?

Answer

It basically means that we have our consciousness steadfastly positioned at the centre of our psyche. Which implies that what is active in us is the consciousness, meaning that the consciousness in us is the one governing our psychological processes, opposed to the mind, ego or egos and personality being in control of our inner processes.

In other words the consciousness takes on the role of the governing or active principle in our psyche and the mind, ego and personality take a step back into the passive role.


Implications

For the above to happen within us, it must mean that the essence or consciousness is sufficiently large to displace the majority of the personality, mind and ego or egos, and if a large ego happens to take control, the consciousness can be used at will to displace it.

We could say that the size of the consciousness must be greater than the size of any ego that we have. Because in the end it is a battle of forces, where the stronger force prevails.

Apart from the size of the consciousness being such that it can displace the other egos the person who has the psychological moon or permanent centre of gravity in the consciousness must have disciplined his or her attention to make the consciousness active all of the time or the greater majority of the time.

End (875).
