' Consciousness has evolved '...

"When you realize what and who you are, completely, absolutely, and thoroughly, there's no doubt at all, and therefore, no suffering.

Suffering no longer exists for that person because they are no longer struggling with a conceptual me who is in opposition to what is.

The separate me is transcended.

Even consciousness is transcended.

That is a liberated person - liberated from ignorance of misunderstanding.

This is enormous in its implications for consciousness as a whole because every time one person realizes the Self, consciousness as a whole has evolved."
