Consciousness creates realities through which to explore itself.

You are sculpting yourself — the sculpture analogy of consciousness.

Consciousness creates realities through which to explore itself. Each reality is an illusion created from the unified level of eternal consciousness — which religion calls “God” — by forgetting it is all selves and instead focusing on a particular self.

If you think of consciousness as the whole alphabet, then it knows it is every letter that exists. In order to create new ways of experiencing itself, imagine consciousness creating a reality with 26 individuals, with each person being based on a letter. To do this, it creates 26 bubbles of individuality that, when entered, cause it to focus on one particular letter by forgetting that it is also the other 25 letters. This is done to such a high degree of focus that each individual believes the letter it represents is All That It Is. This is how eternal consciousness creates new experiences for itself by using selective focus through the use of unconsciousness.

The mix of consciousness and unconsciousness in each individual is expressed beautifully through the analogy of a sculpture emerging from a block of marble. Imagine that the block of marble is infinite consciousness (God). Because this consciousness is All That Is, it contains the potential of everything. This means it cannot be added to because it already is all the marble in existence. It can, however, create new experiences by revealing the potentials within it. This is done by carving away the marble to reveal the infinite number of sculptures that exist — as potential experiences of self — within the block of marble.

In this analogy, you can think of an individual as a sculpture, and the part that is carved away being that which is made unconscious. So, the block of marble is ALL consciousness, and the sculpture is a selective focus that is revealed by making the carved away marble unconscious. This is to understand that every reality is, in fact, still the whole block of marble because that which is made unconscious isn’t actually taken away (it is just made unconscious, which can be imagined as making it invisible).
