Even the highest consciousness is not non-material (note from 2009)

Even the highest consciousness is not non-material, it is part of highly evolved living material objects. This brings down to earth the idea of transcendence beyond time and beyond biology of traditional involutionary religion and of some psychology. We simply have not yet seen the deepest material dimensions of consciousness, and more importantly, we have not seen the material dimensions of Godhood as the supremely evolved living object, or objects. We can transcend the ego and affirm our oneness with all life, but that is not non-material, and is not Godhood, and is also not Absolute Consciousness, which must be evolved to in the very material world.
