Billions of years ago, the mind separated from The Source. During this separation, the soul came into existence. But why? Consciousness details the history of man and which states of consciousness human beings have gone through in their evolution, and what is still ahead. The time between our lives on Earth is explained and the author elaborates on questions like: What does being born and dying actually mean? How do they pertain to karma and the life plan? And how does the energy system of chakras and aura work?
