________________ Vol. XXXVI, 2013 Consciousness : A Critical Observation 29 Conclusion From the above discussions, it can be maintained that Brahmākumarīs perspective is more rational, experience-based and easily accessible while discovering the true nature of 'Consciousness' in the metaphysical milieu. Spiritual view displays a clear and authentic theoretical evidence for sound understanding about the subject-matter. Henceforth, it is stated that Consciousness or spiritual energy is quite different from the material forms of energy manifested in the mundane world. The super-mundane entity soul, self, spirit or psyche is eternally existent and conscient in its nature and acts and reacts to the stimuli and also thinks, feels and reaps the fruits of its actions. Therefore, one should always endeavour to recognize one's own true identity i.e. divine, pure, conscient, infinitesimal point of metaphysical energy giving up identification with the physical or the material, then that paves the way towards perfection. And by acquiring the completely true knowledge of Self, Supreme Self and the Universe, one should definitely approach to a holistic world-view. End Notes 1. S. B. Pra.
