To solve our problems, we need to raise our level of consciousness (quotes)

  • When you bring consciousness to anything, things begin to shift. Eve Ensler
  • As one’s level of consciousness rises, so problems dissolve. Anthony Lambert
  • Our world is in crisis because of the absence of consciousness. Terence McKenna
  • A problem cannot be solved at the level of consciousness in which it occurs. Albert Einstein
  • The crisis is not out there in the world, it is within our own consciousness. Jiddu Krishnamurti
  • There can only be one solution to any problem: a change in attitude and in consciousness. Gregg Braden
  • Consciousness will not always solve the problem, but it may make the suffering meaningful. Marion Woodman
  • No matter how many levels of consciousness one reaches, the problem always goes deeper. Shulamith Firestone
  • Religion is consciousness-raising. It raises you higher than the problem, it gives you a bird’s-eye view. Rajneesh
  • The old will disappear. Human level consciousness by itself can no longer resolve the complexities it has created. David Spangler
  • The solution to the problem of the day is the awakening of the consciousness of humanity to the divinity within. Hazrat Inayat Khan
  • Spiritual consciousness does not make your problems go away; it does, however, help you view them from a different vantage point. Iyanla Vanzant
  • Today, it is more important than ever to raise human consciousness, so that technology becomes a means of empowerment, not destruction. Jaggi Vasudev
  • What is most needed right now is evolving human consciousness. Without that, science, technology, development, everything will go waste. Jaggi Vasudev
  • I believe it is essential for our planetary future to develop tools that can change the consciousness which has created the crisis that we are in. Stanislav Grof
  • As we raise ourselves in the spiritual consciousness, we are better able to solve the problems of life. We are happy. We are at home in every environment. Harold Klemp
  • If we don’t have historical consciousness we can’t really understand problems in all their dimensions, and if we can’t understand problems than we can’t find solutions. Dale Jamieson
  • Causes of endemic problems reveals that they are merely the reflection of the prevailing level of consciousness of that population. There are no other external ‘causes’. David R. Hawkins
  • Most people who have a problem concentrate on the problem. They take it to bed with them and stay awake all night thinking it over. Let go of that problem. Rise above it in consciousness. Emmet Fox
  • The world we are experiencing today is the result of our collective consciousness, and if we want a new world, each of us must start taking responsibility for helping create it. Rosemary Fillmore Rhea
  • If a man can permanently establish his awareness in contact with that pure field (of consciousness), then problems wither away. It’s a very simple thing. When the light comes, then where is the darkness? Maharishi Mahesh Yogi
  • The problems that stand in the way are not of economical or technological nature. The deepest sources of the global crisis lie inside the human personality and reflect the level of consciousness evolution of our species. Stanislav Grof
  • I will work on myself, since the work on myself is going to be the highest thing I can do for it all, since I understand that as man up-levels his own consciousness, he sees more creative solutions to the problems that he’s confronting. Ram Dass
  • Now that we have greater power of consciousness, we are able to reach down and handle problems at the deepest levels of consciousness. These may be such problems as those concerning the source of our identity or concept of self. David R. Hawkins
  • In the world there’s a thing called collective consciousness. All of us billions of human beings together create that collective consciousness. With all the problems in our world, you can see that the collective consciousness is not so high. David Lynch
  • The semimetaphysical problems of the individual and society, of egoism and altruism, of freedom and determinism, either disappear or remain in the form of different phases in the organization of a consciousness that is fundamentally social. Margaret Mead
  • Love takes care of everything. Love is the same as absolute awareness, pure intelligence, or the power of God. When you have enough love inside, there are truly no problems. Problems only arise when you believe you are separate and lacking love. Robert Adams
  • Science and technology have amplified the effects of the dysfunction of the human mind in its unawakened state to such a degree that humanity, and probably the planet, would not survive for another hundred years if human consciousness remains unchanged. Eckhart Tolle
  • Ultimately there is no inner, nor outer; the light of consciousness is both the creator and the creature, the experiencer and the experience, the body and the embodied. Take care of the power that projects all this and your problems will come to an end. Nisargadatta Maharaj
  • If ordinary people really knew that consciousness and not matter is the link that connects us with each other and the world, then their views about war and peace, environmental pollution, social justice, religous values, and all other human endeavors would change radically. Amit Goswami
  • The world we have created is a product of our thinking; it cannot be changed without changing our thinking. If we want to change the world we have to change our thinking…no problem can be solved from the same consciousness that created it. We must learn to see the world anew. Albert Einstein
  • In fact, everything that emanates from source emanates from a source of well-being. When we take on this ego consciousness, when we take on hate rather than love in our hearts, we create all of this divisiveness, and we create all of the problems, the struggles, the difficulties, the diseases, the poverty. Wayne Dyer
  • As you pull back into the consciousness, this world ceases to be a problem. It’s just something you’re watching. It keeps changing, but there is no sense of that being a problem. The more you are willing to just let the world be something you’re aware of, the more it will let you be who you are—the awareness, the Self, the Atman, the Soul. Michael A. Singer
  • The problems that we are facing are multiplying on the planet – economic, environmental, social, political upheaval, the list goes on. It’s a time of change and transition and, as I see it, we are entering a new state of consciousness. It’s a transition between one state of consciousness and another. It’s an evolutionary leap that is happening. Eckhart Tolle
  • When we must deal with problems, we instinctively resist trying the way that leads through obscurity and darkness. We wish to hear only of unequivocal results, and completely forget that these results can only be brought about when we have ventured into and emerged again from the darkness. But to penetrate the darkness we must summon all the powers of enlightenment that consciousness can offer. Carl Jung
  • The doing and the happening is in fact a single process; because you are one with the totality of consciousness, you cannot separate the two. But there is no absolute guarantee that humans will make it. The process isn’t inevitable or automatic. Your cooperation is an essential part of it. However you look at it, it is a quantum leap in the evolution of consciousness, as well as our only chance of survival as a race. Eckhart Tolle
  • The greatest and most important problems of life are all in a certain sense insoluble. They can never be solved, but only outgrown. This ‘outgrowing’, as I formerly called it, on further experience was seen to consist in a new level of consciousness. Some higher or wider interest arose on the person’s horizon, and through this widening of view, the insoluble problem lost its urgency. It was not solved logically in its own terms, but faded out when confronted with a new and stronger life-tendency. Carl Jung
  • I want to let you in on a little secret. There are no problems. There are no problems. There never were any problems, there are no problems today, and there will never be any problems. Problems just mean that the world isn’t turning the way you want it to. But in truth, there are no problems. Everything is unfolding as it should. Everything is right. You have to forget about yourself and expand your consciousness until you become the whole universe. The Reality in back of the universe is Pure Awareness. It has no problems. And you are That. Robert Adams
