at the first glance of your reply came a thought to my mind about collective consciousness...rather a question...does the collective consciousness exist independently...what does it mean exactly...to put it crudely is it the realisation that you are not the only phenomena..but what i feel is....it is very difficult to transcend ones own person...but is it important....why do we really get irritated with self absorbed or self seeking people....why do we condemn selfishness..in any sense...are we so insecure as to feel deprived because of that ...or is it something more.. i hope i make sense.. and i hope you get waht i am trying to ask...i would like all to answer...cos i really want to know....
