"Human consciousness can be seen as a ray, so to speak, of this Universal Consciousness" -E.Tolle
“All praises to the Supreme, universal consciousness, mighty Lord of the universe, who dwells in the heart of all. In this life, the grand opportunity is to awaken to the reality of that.” -Mooji
"In a true awakening, it is realized very clearly that even the awakening itself is not personal. It is universal Spirit or universal consciousness that wakes up to itself. -Adyashanti
"Thoughts are an Activity of the One Universal Consciousness" -R. Spira
That is, is there an observation of this consciousness which is not mine really, it is not my particular consciousness, it is the universal consciousness. -J. Krishnamurti
“Without understanding the universal consciousness present in all beings, in ignorance human beings vision gets struck in individual meager identity and titles. His mind remains deluded with individual false perceptions” -J. Krishnamurti.
""Universal consciousness that is your true identity" -Ramana
"We are the universe, a peephole through which the universal consciousness can experience itself in each of us." -Alan Watts
"The only real "you" is the one that comes and goes, manifests and withdraws itself eternally in and as every conscious being. For "you" is the universe looking at itself from billions of points of view, points that come and go so that the vision is forever new." -Alan Watts
"The truth is you really are nothing, but this nothing is full, whole, infinite in everything and everywhere. This nothing is consciousness itself. It is already whole, complete and fulfilled. This is the amazing irony." —Gangaji
"The Gangaji Foundation serves the truth of universal consciousness and the potential for the recognition of peace inherent in the core of all being."
"All life is conscious, all consciousness alive. Whenever a form is infused with life (prana), consciousness (chetana) appears by reflection of awareness in matter." -Nisargadatta
"Enlightenment is when the wave realizes it is the ocean" -Thich Nhat Hanh
"This universal consciousness is not separate from existence. It is part, intrinsic part of existence. Existence is one. Matter and consciousness are two extremes of one energy. Matter is a certain combination of the same energy as consciousness." -Osho
"Consciousness is a fundamental thing, the fundamental thing in existence – it is the energy, the motion, the movement of consciousness that creates the universe and all that is in it – not only the macrocosm but the microcosm is nothing but consciousness arranging itself." -Sri Aurobindo
"“The total number of minds in the universe is one. In fact, consciousness is a singularity phasing within all beings” -Schrödinger
"You are not a drop in the ocean. You are the entire ocean, in a drop." -Rumi
"At the deepest level I exist as consciousness. My consciousness, your consciousness, Gandhi's consciousness and the Universal Consciousness – the God – are all one." -Gandhi
"This is the heart of awakening. There is a shift in perception from seeing oneself as an isolated individual to seeing oneself, if we have a sense of self at all after this shift, as something much more universal—everything and everyone and every-where at the same time." -Adyashanti
