How much new consciousness is represented in today`s literature? |
Let us talk about new consciousness in today`s literature in broader perspective.New consciousness is being noted in other art forms also.What are the symptoms of new consciousness? What is real new consciousness and which is superficial?Whether the grab of new consciousness is being used to express old consciousness in the new works of literature?Whether a new senstivity is a pre requisite for new consciousness?All these questions need appropriate consideration and reply.It seems that the new consciousness is more like new fashion.Critics don`t like socializing.Exclusiveness is a sort of especiality which makes the person somewhat secretive and the people respect such secrecy.No offences are meant. Actually modern people are seeking personal pride and means used are not traditional and sometimes socially unacceptable.The code of this ethic is that nothing is impossible.Only two things are required-Tact and Contact.If tact is used contacts will devlop suo moto.Without tact and contact,no one can aspire to succeed. To survive and acheive,either form a racket or join some racket and be respected and gain more social status. The development of character and personality can be achieved by the integration of mind.The Indians have developed their psychology in the course ofreligious revelations by studying the methods for reaching the highest religious experience-the superconscious state of mind or Samadhi.It is the only way of understanding and controlling the mind in order that higher consciousness may be reached.In the course of concentration and deep meditation,the mind is so controlled and unified that it becomes thoroughly illuminated and can rise above the limitations of the nervous system.According to SwamiVivekanand,in Raja Yoga,the mind can immediately and directly reach the superconscious state in which it experiences reality.The mind can go beyond consciousness without feeling of egoism.When a person goes in deep sleep,he enters a place beneath consciousness.He breathes and moves his body all the time,perhaps, in his sleep without any feeling of egoism.When he returns from sleep,the sum total of his knowledge remains the same as before he went into sleep.But when a man goes into superconscious state oe Samadhi,he comes out as Sage |
