The human species collective consciousness

species-being: A concept (Gattungswesen) employed extensively by Hegelians in Germany in the 1830s and 1840s, used primarily to argue for the absolute uniqueness of man due to man's possession of consciousness: not just consciousness of self, which other social animals possessed, but rather consciousness of species or essential nature. [...] The contemplative life was distinctly and exclusively human. Indeed, man was taken to transcend a merely animal individuality in thought and for some, like Feuerbach, this meant that human individuality was not selbst‐sein, being oneself, but mitsein, being with another. [...] Marx extended the concept of species‐being. While he accepted that man was unique, he also believed that the distinctively human attribute was not thought or consciousness per se, but rather free and conscious material production. It was, therefore, free labour which constituted man's active species life.

If one accepts the existence of the collective human unconscious as a living biosystem, four-billion dimensional, then it is a living entity -- indeed, a great superentity, of which our own personal consciousnesses/personal unconsciousnesses are parts. Thus each of us is a cell in this great entity.
