RT @nick_routledge: @lukeburgis @slatestarcodex Across many traditions conscience is regarded as supra-personal: it isn’t generated by the ego, and it doesn’t terminate at the skin. An organ of participation by which moral intelligibility discloses itself, it is indistinguishable from intuition—knowing written upon the heart.
@Plough There's more. Conscience, a universal human endowment, is the supernatural virtue of authenticity in the domain of thought, a vector of divine presence and purpose, and an embodied conduit whereby divine guidance infuses and transforms history and reality in its co-creative lure.

Copy of tweet and quote tweet here: The true authority of the illuminated conscience. "The spirituality of our times requires a shift from merely awakening consciousness to the awakening of the conscience, which encompasses a realization of interdependence and interconnection between all beings." - Pir Vilayat Khan 7/ What is it then, to reconcile our autobiographies to the enormous force of the spirit of an age, to wed consciousness to conscience in the concrete embodiment of a personal response proportionate to the needs of our era, concomitant to awakening to life's intrinsic wholeness?
