What is consciousness?

Evidence of conscousness

Does consciousness exixt in a rock? Where does conscioiusness originate? If we are to accept the theory that all life and all things seemingly inanimate come from a Supreme Creator, then it would not be unreasonable to suggest that consciousness also comes from this Supreme Being. What about the consciousness in plants and animals? What is the nature of that consciousness? Is it an original type of consciousness? or merely a reflection of that Great consciousness? One could surmise that all types of consciousness really come from one source and is therefore similar if not the same as that source for could the water at a river delta be different from the water at the source of the river? There may be differences in quiality, clarity and purity but essentially it is the same water. Which is to say that the conscousness of a created being cannot be its own creation or that the water at the river delta magically appeared there without the agency of the source

What then about the rock which seems oblivious to the wars, worries and strife in the world, which sits on the ground with the other rocks and pebbles and stones and sand and soil, placidly, unmindful and uncaring about the shifts in power and the suffering of beings with a slightly higher degree of consciousness than it? If it also springs from the same Supreme Creator then it must also share some qualities of that Creator like, consciousness.
