Consciousness vs Conscience

It is very important to understand the true difference between these two as that can help improve your way of living and in seeking higher knowledge.

Conscious refers to awareness about yourself and your surroundings or intellect (Budhi). All are controlled and regulated by the perishable power of the five great elements of nature (VASUS): earth, fire, air, water, and sky.

Therefore consciousness is confined knowledge that we acquire through knowing our surrounding, and it not only limited, but it is not even fully perishable.

Conscience: on the other hand, is eternal wisdom (Chita) that goes beyond perpetual five elements of nature. It even includes three imperishable elements; Sun, Moon, and Stars. These are the true source of external and internal light which generate all forms of light to displace darkness or ignorance.

The knowledge we gain through illumination is infinite. It works through our subtle faculties, like our mind and heart, which allow our embodiment to go beyond and overpower any physical limitations.

The combination of the eight great elements of nature is called “As Vastu,” which help individual physical embodiment to attain Enlightenment, like Buddha, Christ, Muhammad, Moses and many more, who come to serve humanity as the avatar of Godhead.

Such knowledge was first transcribed in Rigveda during 3000-2000 BCE and will be elaborated within my next book, ”In search of Absolute Truth.”
