We never go 'somewhere' to access consciousness, it's always with us, around us and inside of us. As the observer, you are the observation point of consciousness, sitting here writing this I can see consciousness, it's my present moment awareness, my container, the computer, the room, the bird outside chirping, the hands I can see pushing the keys, I'm looking to it all through the eyes of consciousness, I might call it Max Power and Max's room and house and wife and kids, but everything in awareness is consciousness.
To access it, you just have to admit the most obvious truth, you are it, you are not strictly speaking your body/mind, you are everything inside the container, inside present moment awareness. When you cease to identify with your body as your identity and see that everthing is you, then you'll have easy and direct access to consciousness and then you can create better, by using simple choice.
When you think about something, that thought is a creation, it's a validation of a choice. Choice creates, thoughts validate. Consider that choice is the fundamental creative power and all the thoughts validate the choice. You maybe having 60,000 thoughts a day, but how many choices do you make?
Choice maybe considered to be thought, but it's more powerful than thought, it's more like knowing than thinking, a good way to explain choice is to say it's like thought, but on steroids, you can change thoughts, but choice cannot be changed, only another choice can be made. People say that all the thoughts add up to creation, like if you think about something often enough it appears, but what's happening is that a choice is made and then thoughts validate the choice, because there are so many thoughts, we consider they did the creating, I just don't beleive that and want it simply and easier.
Choice creates, thoughts validate. Make a choice, let it go, get out of the way and enjoy the observation.
