' The World-Mind consciousness '...


Our innumerable ideas are a kind of division of the mind but do not really involve its exhaus­tion for the ideas not only arise but must vanish back into it.

Al­though the mind perpetually empties itself into thoughts, it is never less itself, never less its own single presence.

Nor are these thoughts separate at any moment from the mind.

In the same way, except that it is not affected by the transiency which affects all thoughts, the Overself is not separate from the World‑Mind.

Every Overself exists in the World‑Mind just as different thoughts exist in one and the same human mind.

The World‑Mind’s conscious­ness may multiply or divide itself a million times but its stuff is not really divisible; it only appears so.
