Mental Science-No. +
Before taking up the formal study
OF the mental faculties, tits necessary
to discuss the conditions OF the mind
that are not considered distinct
modes OF mental activity and there
fore, not mental faculties. These
are consciousness and attention.
The word consciousness" is de-
rived from con, meaning with and
scire, TO know. Thesunix nessmeang
the state OF being. Consciousness,
then is that state of the mind seXist-
ness by which it is not a faculty: not
d distinct form OF mental activity,
but simply an attribute or a quality
inherent in the mind. Mind cannot
exist without it. We not only know
but we know that we know; we are
conscious OF our mental acts; and
not to be conscious o. them is not to
know. 1t is thus at the foundation
OF all mental activity: the basis o..
all knowledge. It can not be reduc
ed to any Other state or condition;
it is the ultimatum of all attributes
of the soul. | see and | know that !
see; / am sad and / know that | am
sad; / reason and | know that | rea-
son. Not to know that | see, am
sad or that | reason is not to see,
feel sad, or reason.
The term is not to be Confounded
with the word conscience and yet il
is related to it and formerly meant
all that we attribute to that term;
j. e., the inner principle that ap-
proves OF that which we consider
right and disapproves OF that which
We consider wrong,
Writers speak of two degrees OF
consciousness: The natural or that
which the mind necessarily possesses
in knowing its own acts and states
and the artificial or the Intentional
bending OF the mind in upon itself to
observe it's own acts and states.
In consciousness we have given us
actual knowledge; it is immediate;
it may be recognized as a past occur
renee but the representation in the
mind is present, actually existing.
These representations come and go;
they fit in and out but conscience
ness is ever on the alert to recognize
them.
Not only are we conscious OF the
things that rise in the mind but we
are conscious OF ourselves as the ba-
sis of all these conditions. The ego,
or self is ever present and does not
result from any thought on our part.
What we know, we know as our own,
as belonging to ourselves.
We are thus conscious OF ourselves
as the basis OF all thought; OF the
mental operation; and OF the result
obtained by this mental process.
