Do you consider consciousness -
- to be analogous to a monotheistic god concept?
- to be an orientation tool?
- to be active and/or passive?
- to be evoked and/or eliminated?
- to consist of strong and weak forces?
- to function like electromagnetism?
- to be time/space limited?
- to be a psychosomatic idiosyncrasy of homo?

You repeated but I noticed the order didn't change..
As for what your asking. Every question can lead to another, so there is always that which is and that which has not been uncovered. The known and unknown- so potentially there is no answer here, just questions that fit some where in the inclusion of consciousness creating itself infinitely...:)

You don't have to apologize I don't mind that you did.
You can press edit and delete but you will have to put something else in the box as you would need admin to wipe it completely.
Actually your edit button would be gone by now, so no go me thinks.

Consciousness is a label used to define that which has no definition, in the same way that an eddy in a river has no concrete self. And yet that eddy is still an eddy, and we are still conscious. To label is to draw boundaries where no boundaries exist.

Not necessarily but consciousness may be such a concept. E.g. one may postulate a universal consciousness and the individual consciousnesses being instances of it.

yes. without cosciousness no "I" and "I" is a spacio-temporal coordinate.

Both. Passive in that cosciousness is stirred by stimuli and active in that it synthesizes.

It is evoked and eliminated continuously, moment by moment, in that its objects change.

Don't understand what "forces" might stand for.

Time and space are aspects of consciousness or conscious being. So the question is whether consciousness is limited by itself. Consciousness is conditioned so the conditioning is what limits.

No, an aspect of human being which is conscious being.

If we apply to consciousness the term force - as in physics - it could have a strong aspect (like love) and week aspects like desire and envy.
"Electromagnetic force, is a type of physical interaction that occurs between electrically charged particles."
This is to tickle those who claim that Consciousness and its physical aspects are independent.

Consciousness is awareness. What is the story?
What do we take from it.. and what does it offer?
If the lights go out forever one day... well.. is that not our dilemma.
I am for now....

Consciousness has a label stamped in you.

No way out... of the eternal light of the soul. |
