Part 14: The Most Appropriate Approach

This article is part of the Unified Consciousness Framework series. To gain the maximum benefit from reading this series it would be wise to read them sequentially.

In the previous part we looked specifically at why our typical approach to trying to discover the deeper secrets of the cosmos have generally been so unsuccessful at arriving at any definitive answers. We looked at understanding why this is the case and also the fundamental difference between acquiring and accumulating knowledge versus shifting our internal perception. Looking at the difference between these two concepts helped the potential of a new approach begin to emerge more clearly in our awareness. It is in this part of the framework that we will look at this alternative approach in more detail, coming to understand some of its key characteristics. We will then take a moment to look at a very practical example which will help us to understand why this is the most appropriate approach for us with regards to developing increasing levels of clarity in our conscious perception.

An important thing to briefly point out to the reader is the fact that this approach holds within it the ability of the individual to still make progress in a variety of different ways, phenomenally speaking. For example, it may be entirely possible for this individual to continue with certain scientific experiments and investigations and still for them to be doing this whilst being engaged with this new approach. Changing the approach that we adopt results in us being engaged with these activities from a clearer state of perception, which in itself brings about a huge shift in the way that that individual engages with those activities.

In the previous part we primarily outlined the importance of understanding the difference between acquiring knowledge and shifting our perception. It was clearly shown there that there is often some correlation between learning information and shifting our perception, even though it is not always necessary for the process to occur in that sequence. We also then identified some of the key differences between quantitative and qualitative approaches and the inherent limitations that are a part of any quantitative approach, as it will invariably based on the foundation of acquiring knowledge. In this part then, having already established these various different points in the previous part, we are going to look at how changes in our conscious perception can come about, what type of approach is most conducive to producing these shifts in our conscious perception, and what these may practically look like when they are established.

The Contents of The Cosmic Room

Hopefully the reader is starting to see things in a far clearer manner already. If they are, the idea that there is nothing to truly know in order for them to develop themselves internally will be starting to make more sense. What originally perhaps started off as a strange notion to even contemplate upon is somehow beginning to make complete sense. We could even conclude that this seemingly illogical approach has, as a result of a shift in the reader’s conscious perception, started to appear to be something quite logical. The reader should bear in mind that it is largely the context that we have created in the framework so far which is allowing this perception of things to become established for them. This should all help the reader to be able to see how, in a very practical sense, the process of reading certain content can eventually lead to a shift in conscious perception.

The way that this process is connected to by us and the way it unfolds for us is something that will constantly be referred to throughout the framework, primarily because doing so has a significant impact on the reader’s internal realisation of the framework, aiding them in making progress with the process. Internally realsing the framework is something distinctly different to memorising it all or knowing it. Such a thing may be beneficial to us if we found ourselves being examined on what is contained within the framework, even though its considerable length would likely make such a task difficult. Scoring excellent results in such an examination would not necessarily mean that what is outlined in the framework was  representative of your own perception of the world. Internally realising the framework would result in our experience and perception of the world coming into alignment with the various different principles, ideas and concepts that have been highlighted in it, even though we may be able to recall none of the content contained within it.

Remember that some gaps are likely to still exist for the reader at this stage of the framework, and will likely continue to exist for a significant period of time still. This is one of the reasons why many of these points are being emphasised over and over again. The link and connection that exists between these points is not going to be completely apparent to the reader instantly at this stage of the process. Points being made at this time are likely to become clearer much later on in the framework, especially once the link between our desires, our own perception, and our self development have become more clearly established.
