We can be certain that we are connected through consciousness. Just as muscles and joints, tendons and ligaments, connect to form the whole physical structure of an individual, so too our individual ideas connect at certain points and are strengthened when we work together, forming the many elements that make up collective consciousness. Consciousness is to cosmic awareness what the muscles are for gaining flexibility, but first consciousness must be strengthened as to muscles strengthened; the consciousness and muscles together create flexibility in mind and body.
