There are two different basic levels of consciousness; "I am a body" (which is illusory (false)) or .I am a soul," (which is real). When the feeling is "I am a body," the thought process is trapped in the limitations, problems and vision of the physical identity. Its reaction to others is on the same level.
Given below is an awareness-thought-decision-
Awareness
Body Consciousness: I am the father. I know the most.
Soul Consciousness: I am a soul. My natural state is love and peace.
Thought
Body Consciousness: My son should listen to me as he is my own flesh and blood.
Soul Consciousness: My son is a soul too. As a soul he is my brother.
Decision
Body Consciousness: I will teach him a lesson.
Soul Consciousness: I will respect his idea also.
Action
Body Consciousness: Father argues with son.
Soul Consciousness: Father and son discuss with respect.
Result
Body Consciousness: Ill feeling between father and son.
Soul Consciousness: Respect maintained.
