The Third Foundational Question of Consciousness:
What percentage distribution exists within total consciousness?
A natural follow up question to ask about my model of consciousness is: what percentages exist within each type of consciousness? At the moment, I don’t believe the percentages are fixed throughout a person’s life span development. Observations from reality indicate that throughout life span development the percentage distributions do fluctuate. Even so, the truth of the matter is that, all parts of consciousness are responsible for the entire consciousness of a person, at the same time. Meaning that, a person is always conscious of their reality, albeit to varying degrees, even when asleep. However, on the average, each type of consciousness is assigned to or agreed upon to focus on specific, specialized tasks.
For instance, consider the instantaneous moment of conception of life, and the initial nine month human life span development. At these stages of human life span development, it would not make sense to have 20% of a person’s total consciousness be concentrated or allocated within e-consciousness. There’s no need for much exploration. Reasonably, at this point in life span development, perhaps only 1% of total consciousness would be contained within e-consciousness, maybe even less.
However, as a person develops in life, more and more consciousness is allocated into e-consciousness. This process of consciousness distribution happens, for the most part, to all human beings. Not surprising, most individuals have limited working memory of their early stages of life span development. This is because such memories are not needed at the instantaneous moment of conception for e-consciousness.
At present, my current approximations for the distribution of percentages of an adult’s total consciousness are, on the average: 10-15% of total consciousness is primarily within e-consciousness; 75-80% of total consciousness is primarily within ava-consciousness; and, 3-5% of total consciousness is primarily within i-consciousness.
Notice, I keep using primarily. This is because, I believe that greater quantities of consciousness can and do concentrate into one of the lesser concentrated forms of consciousness, in particular within e-consciousness. Though, at the moment, the conditions for such redistribution may be limited to extreme needs only, but this may not be the case in general.
3. What percentage distribution exists within total consciousness?
The approximate distribution of percentages within total consciousness is, on the average, for an adult: 10-15% of total consciousness is primarily within e-consciousness; 75-80% of total consciousness is primarily within ava-consciousness; and, 3-5% of total consciousness is primarily within i-consciousness.
The Fourth Foundational Question of Consciousness:
What are universe components?
A reasonable question to ask at this point is: where does consciousness come from? However, in order to answer this origin curiosity, there are two additional questions that need to be addressed first. Namely, what are universe components; and second, what is one general interpretation of the big-bang?
Understandably, there exists no human being that: personally witnessed the big bang; personally witnessed the moments or events or things before the big bang; and, that personally witnessed, the infinitesimally small moments after the big bang, banged away.
This leaves room for much interpretation, and for much choice of axioms surrounding the time frame or events around the big bang. Meaning, I have the responsibility to apply my hypothesis of choice, based on my interpretations of the data, or lack thereof, to form my model of interpreting the big bang.
In a rigid belief, most assume that the big bang did not bang away from anything. Moreover, most assume that the big bang did not create a separation of some unknown unified thing. Or, rather, most cannot imagine a nonphysical space-like or time-like unification of pre-reality.
Yep, nor can I. But I don’t need to know the exact unimaginable pre-reality. Instead, in order to move forward, all that is required are rough approximations. Hence, I’ll approximate my hypothesis and choose my axioms, and create my wrong model of the before reality time. Hopefully, my incorrect model may shed some light upon the origins of consciousness, and maybe even answer some of the other mysteries of the universe.
At any rate, here are my approximate definitions to begin my very rough (most likely incorrect) model of universe components.
Pre-universe is the unified state of reality, existence, energy, knowledge, understanding and origin of all events and properties and agreements before the big bang, which is infinitely far beyond the imagination of any human being. It is a state of nothingness, or rather nothing physical, that still exists and that is infinitely far beyond human imagination, reasoning and proof.
Universe is the current approximate known—and unknown—reality, existence, energy, knowledge, information that is observable to human beings. This portion of reality exists as a type of non-unified part of the pre-universe.
C-universe is the complement of the universe. It is a type of opposite universe, with respect to the known universe, such that the union of the universe with the c-universe results in a state of pre-universe or a state of nothingness. This portion of reality exists as a type of non-unified part of the pre-universe.
Of course, motivated reader, you are within reason to question: why three parts exist in reality? Truth is, there may be more parts; but, since I am working within my limited mind, currently, I see only three main parts.
Moreover, even though I am describing three partitioned-type parts of overall pre-reality into present reality, I believe that these parts are still intertwined as one piece. Meaning that, each universe component influences all three portions of universe components. As a comparable analogy, consider that every person has developed distinct organs in their body that operate with distinct functions; but, collectively these distinct organs work in concert with the other organs in the body, to support one person. I believe reality to work in like manner.
4. What are universe components?
The universe components that exist in current reality are: the pre-universe, the universe and the c-universe.
