One apparently cannot determine the state of consciousness of
another from their actions; probably given the observer/observed
uncertainty one can never adequately determine the state of
consciousness of another, if one is not functioning at least from
Brahman and willing to completely "be" the other, or know the other
as oneself. Even in Unity there is room for inaccuracy, as one is in
U.C. still potentially perceiving from the POV of an unchallenged
or "unslain" small-self.
Only in Brahman is one aware of the spatio-temporal ("impermanent")
and egoic nature of all the standard seven SoC (and thus sees that
there is no real difference between "ignorance"
and "enlightenment"), and even in Brahman one is or may be
functioning through a "resurrected" small-self, which itself still
may be quite capable of inaccurate perception-filters and so on. :-)
