What Is Super Consciousness?

[Elton]

Is it enlightenment or is it a flow state?  I've experienced neither,or is it something else all together?

Maybe the future, or the distant past, or maybe completely mad theories based on concepts that come out of absurdity.

Man can be understood as a seven-story building: three stories are underground, three stories are above ground. One story, the middle one, is half underground and half above ground. This fourth story is where we are. Sigmund Freud calls it conscious mind.

When Freud started working with sick people, he became aware that there is something underneath the conscious mind. He called it the unconscious mind.

Carl Gustav Jung worked even harder, went deeper into the psyche of man, and found another story underneath the unconscious. He called it the collective unconscious mind.

But in the East, below the collective unconscious mind, we have discovered the last story -- the cosmic unconscious mind.The reason is clear...because the search in the East and in the West differed fundamentally. The Western psychologists were concerned with sick people, insane people; naturally, they have to go below the conscious mind to the unconscious. But if there was somebody who was even more insane, they had to go to the collective unconscious. But it is very rare to find a man who is so mad that he has reached the cosmic unconscious mind. If somebody goes that mad, he will be almost a rock. That's why they have not been able to discover the cosmic unconscious mind.

But, in the East, the search was totally different. They started looking into the minds of meditators, not madmen. As they worked, they found that above the conscious mind there is a superconscious mind. And many religions have stopped there, thinking they have arrived -- it is so beautiful, so peaceful.

But a few seekers continued to fly higher and higher, and found another story on top of the superconscious mind: the collective superconscious mind. Most of the seekers stopped there; the joy is too much, uncontainable. It is unbelievable that there can be anything more. But only a few have gone to the very end, to the highest peak -- and they have found the cosmic conscious mind.

The cosmic conscious mind is called the state of enlightenment, the state of buddhahood.

after the post 8th (jhana) junction point there is a temporary attainment called 'super-watcher' in which you get a very thick presence feel and can just bask in there.
or maybe you are just refering to arahatshit i.e. permanent nondual awareness ;

To study higher states of consciousness nobody is going to pay you.  The lower states, where a person becomes insane, are paying. Now, it is the business aspect of psychology that is preventing it from studying higher states.

At the level of superconscious mind, all thoughts, all feelings disappear; you start living in an absolute silence. But this silence is a little bit empty. It is beautiful; just to be silent, utterly silent, has a beauty of its own. But when you reach to the collective superconscious you become aware that silence can remain and yet it can become full; it need not be empty. It can become full of joy, it can become full of love, it can become full of creativity.

But there is still one higher stage: the cosmic superconsciousness, where your individuality disappears like a dewdrop falling into the ocean. Suddenly you become the whole ocean. At the stage of cosmic superconsciousness you start experiencing the ultimate truth of life, the meaning of existence, your unity with the whole.

Things are no longer outside you, you are no longer outside of things: all divisions have disappeared. In some strange way the sunrise is within you, and the stars are within you, and the flowers are within you. You have become spread over the whole cosmos.
