Consciousness is male mental energy of the mind, called thought.
Awareness is female emotional energy of the heart, called feeling.
My awareness of my emotional feeling is my emotional intelligence or EQ.
My conscious rational thoughts determine my intellectual intelligence or IQ.
A male dominant society defaults to the intellectual reasoning of rational intelligence, by suppressing the female intuitive senses of emotional awareness.
As our society becomes more & more conscious, it becomes less & less aware of its spiritual origins. Male dominated religious leaders espouse the female virtues of their submissive religious followers. Our religious theology has become a poor substitute for our spiritually intuitive awareness.
Science has lost its ability to be scient with intuitive knowing. Omniscience is reserved for God and believed to be unattainable by mere mortals.
Philosophy has lost its love of wisdom and replaced it with intellectual argument based on logic & ethics. As philosophy morphed into science, it has become obligatory to prove rational intellectual argument with the logic of mathematics.
As we became more conscious of our mental incapacity to know our truth, we lost the awareness to feel our emotional incompetence. As we became more conscious of our mental capacity, we forgot the importance of our emotional competence.
As Academia developed a total unawareness of both spiritual & emotional intelligence, it discovered what is called the Hard Problem of Consciousness. Without an opposing perception of awareness, our perspective of consciousness makes it impossible to define and understand.
We are currently unaware that our consciousness has no awareness because there is no distinction between the two. Science has not only lost its heart & soul but also the awareness that the conscious mental thought of our mind has an awareness of the emotional feelings of our heart.
We have become conscious physical beings instead of spiritual beings having a mental & emotional experience of conscious-awareness as our physical reality.
