Consciousness is so-called an ongoing process of acquiring yourself;
A newborn baby is incapable of being either conscious or unconscious.
Amazingly enough, he or she will soon be aware of their own flaring existence.
Growing up, hearing the voices of the adults around,
Boys and girls will gradually notice the other existence of unconsciousness,
Something weird who never speaks, staying just around themselves.
Some do not notice it even when they grow up,
Some call it the unearthly ghost or superstition.
Meanwhile, every morning we wake up from a night's sleep.
For it is a custom of our society, of our body from birth.
Even some more will be indefinitely convinced to take for granted,
Unconsciousness (e.g., sleep) first, then everyday awaking.
Therefore, little do we think in our daily life that;
The sea of your unconsciousness--you are just unaware of it-- is actually
Connected to the shore of your consciousness of which you are aware right now!
Consciousness has been yourself, which is your clear and sound landscape.
How pitiful it would be, however, if you alienate your rich and prolific depth,
As if it were not you, yourself...
Unconsciousness has been with you since you were born.
It is living inside, beside you, though it is dumb at all.
Unconsciousness is taking care of you in your perception and memory.
So the reason why people feel sometimes narrow and hearless is,
Because they behave like battering their own unconsciousness. ao
