How can we gauge whether we are unaware or unconscious at any moment ?

A simple toolkit by Vernon Howard to gauge our state of consciousness at any given point of time.


Quote:
"Q. How can we tell when we are unaware of ourselves?

A. Nothing is simpler. Whenever you feel worried, nervous,
pressured, you are living from imagination, not from aware-
ness. These negativities do not control a conscious man."

-- Vernon Howard (Pathways to Perfect Living, p. 90)
