Consciousness - the New and ONLY topic

Consciousness, the topic - when divorced from your own personal life and circumstances - is just EMPTY words. "Consciousness". Philosophers, even some psychiatrists, and now even neuro-scientists - not to mention Gurus, and Rishis and Roshis and other such "spiritual-types" - talk about consciousness, but in most if not all cases, their talk is not about themselves, personally in the moment, in the Right Here and Right Now, but only in the abstract - as a TOPIC. Thus, from one viewpoint, it is all just EMPTY WORDS.

One's life is "full of" this and that to be sure, but there is an abundance of regret (from thoughts-about-past-actions) and an abundance of hope (from thoughts-about-future-actions). In the middle of all that, in the right here and now, is none of that. No regrets. No hopes. We are quite literally a moving "point of energy-transfer" enlivening our physical bodies in ways we are mostly unclear, and our minds in ways we are even less clear about. That is, we are ALIVE - we are certain about that - but HOW and WHY we have no idea at all.

This moving point of "something" is our connection to the All and Everything - The Eternal Seamlessness - but how that is happening is a complete mystery. Thankfully, we have brains that produce thoughts on command to answer any question. So here goes...

Consciousness of one's connection to the PAST and to the FUTURE within the ETERNAL NOW, in the sense that one is an Eternal Being, one with all life here and wherever it may be found, is 1) something we as humans being DO NOT HAVE, but 2) CAN HAVE, but it doesn't come easily or naturally, because the only thing that does come easily and naturally is DEATH and the termination of thoughts...

...at which point (if there is such) the GAME is reset, and one starts PLAYING yet again in a newly fashioned set-of-clothes (body). How many times one must play is certainly unknown and unknowable, BUT, to achieve everything possible in ONE LIFETIME, is certainly built-into the GAME. That's a fact.

HOW (to achieve everything possible in ONE LIFETIME)?
Can you talk about that here?
Will you talk about that here?
YOU MUST TALK ABOUT THAT sometime.
This place and this time is as good as it's likely EVER to get!
