Conscioussness and Awareness

1. Tom, absent in the class - denotes the relative absence of Tom and the absolute presence too.
2. Tom, even if absent, has the absolute potential to be present at any time. This is awareness. Awareness, the absolute potential, always is. Awareness is not an entity to shower grace upon you.
3. Tom, when present, is the manifested consciousness. Conscioussness - the relative presence, comes and goes. Conscioussness is not an entity to give you blessings.
4. Tom, to listen to the class, needs to be relatively present. To experience anything, you need consciousness manifested.
