What is Consciousness?
Consciousness is the basis of life and existence. It is not something that you can do. It is not an act. It is not an idea. It is not even a quality. Consciousness does not happen by doing something. You simply have to allow it to happen. Consciousness is not of the mind. If consciousness is fully on, you can make your life whichever way you want. This is true freedom - freedom to make anything out of life. And to move towards this, you should come to a state of abandon!

Predetermined Answers – A Zen Story
A Questioner narrates an interesting Zen story to Sadhguru, and also shares an explanation about it. Sadhguru tells us that we can not make a moral out of a Spiritual process. Spirituality is about a way to be, and not a way to do. An action is only relevant to the situation one exists in. So, there is no right or wrong answer, there is no right or wrong action - there is only appropriate action and an appropriate answer. Approaching any situation with predetermined answers is not appropriate. Sadhguru says, this is the essential difference between morality and consciousness.

How Does Anesthesia Work?
Though it's been almost two hundred years that man has been using anesthesia, still the medical science does not really know how it works. In this conversation between Sadhguru and an anesthesiologist, Sadhguru sheds some light in it. He tells us that anesthesia does not take away even a bit of consciousness. It is only taking away pain and memory, and even in memory it is only blocking the recollection process, not the recording process.

Sadhguru says that any intelligence is good, whether natural or artificial, organic or synthetic. He says - "Without intelligence, there is no truth". In near future all work will be done by robots. Technology will also create artificial thoughts and emotions. However, Sadhguru says - "But that is only intelligence. That is not consciousness. Our thought, our emotion, these have nothing to do with consciousness". A robot, or artificial intelligence can never have consciousness.
