My way of trying to understand consciousness, is to see it like the ocean, we are like the waves upon the ocean, we as the waves believe we are separate from the ocean, as the wave we have our own conscious mind, but the truth is there is only the ocean, One Consciousness. To realize this and to experience this, is called Enlightenment, or Awakening, for it cannot be known reduced to a mere concept, in fact the mind can never know it, its beyond the mind.
