What is the greatest trauma that human consciousness has manifested and has had to endure? What do you think would be the greatest trauma that we could endure? Speaking in terms of the collective consciousness, the one mind; for what purpose would the collective consciousness create such a thing? It's easy to see suffering as an opposite to joy and happiness, but should we be following in the direction of something that is nothing more than the other side of the same coin; or should we accept these things as part of ourself for the purpose of integrating that into our beings so that we can become whole? I am curious about the destination that humanity is seeking. Is it for the ultimate realization of self, or are we blindly guiding ourselves towards an ideal way living in illusion?
