What if you woke up in the morning and you realized that you were out of
weed and it was going to be 100 degrees in the shade today?

No normal person is ever going to understand what you just wrote -
like flipping to the middle of a badly written manual on how to pull
an engine - way too involved, no context, and no understanding of the
terms flung about. Em ain't a TM fool like you and me.
Also it is a misnomer to call it Brahman Consciousness. Depending on
the perspective of the person yakking about it, Brahman incorporates,
or supercedes, consciousness. It is just referred to as Brahman. Why?
No fucking clue; why does she call herself, "Oprah"?

Yes, you are right. "Waking State" generally applies to an
unenlightened state of consciousness. First you have your waking,
sleeping and dreaming states of consciousness. Then you have your
cosmic consciousnesses, which is transcendental consciousnesses, along
with the other three - waking, sleeping and dreaming.
Then after a spell, and sufficient production of soma, you become
aware of the finest value of relative existence, aka, celestial
perception, known as God Consciousness, or glorified cosmic
consciousnesses. Then, it is said, that God, noticing someone
appreciating his creation to that extent reaches out, and bestows
unity consciousness upon the devotee.
And those are the Seven States of Consciousness as outlined by MMY.
There is also said to be Brahman Consciousness in which the wholeness
of unity continues to expand into a greater and greater wholeness.
I think I've got that right.
But yes, waking state is considered generally a (spit) less evolved
state. (-:

True, I was asking about the larger definition as it seems this term
is used to denote more than just the hours one's eyelids are open,
although that works too. :)
To prepare for fixing the toilet, which scares me, I will attempt to
find peace of mind listening to this. Have a good day.

"Waking state" is used to mean both "I am awake" (rather than sleeping
or dreaming) and to refer, as you suggest, to waking/dreaming/sleeping
as the totality of one's apperception of consciousness, i.e., not
including the transcendent.
Emily, I believe, was asking about the second ("as it is discussed on
this forum"), whereas Xeno assumed she was asking about the first. So
your response, it seems to me, is more appropriate in this context.

waking state, spans all activity, composed of being up and active,
asleep, or dreaming. It is a common state of consciousness. The
silence, or sense of buffering, and peacefulness, that comes from
deliberate acts for spiritual growth, like yoga, is either absent, or
easily upset. The subjective sense of self is largely limited to a
body-centric identity. That's "waking state", and it has very little
to do with what a person does in their life, whether a POTUS, priest,
or average joe.

Re: "You guys can't even figure out waking state, huh? LOL" Would
anyone be willing to define "waking state" for me as it is discussed
on this forum?
