That's a deep and fascinating statement — "Unconscious know the True Consciousness."
Let's unpack it a bit:
1. Philosophical View
In many spiritual and philosophical traditions, the unconscious mind (or the deeper layers of awareness) is seen as the bridge to true consciousness — the pure awareness that exists beyond thoughts, ego, and sensory perception.
• Eastern philosophy (Vedanta, Buddhism): True consciousness (Atman, Pure Awareness) is ever-present, but the surface mind and ego obscure it. The unconscious—where intuition, memory, and archetypal symbols reside—can hint at this deeper truth when the surface mind is quiet.
• Western thought (Jungian psychology): Carl Jung saw the unconscious as containing not only personal repressed content but also collective wisdom — archetypes and truths that, when integrated, bring one closer to wholeness or Self, which parallels true consciousness.
2. Neuroscientific View
From a modern perspective:
• The unconscious mind processes far more information than the conscious one—most of our perceptions, emotions, and even decisions arise from it before they reach awareness.
• Thus, our "consciousness" is only a small island in a vast sea of unconscious knowing.
Some neuroscientists suggest that "true consciousness" might emerge only when the unconscious and conscious layers align — when the noise of surface thought subsides and awareness perceives itself.
3. Mystical Interpretation
In mystical language, your phrase could mean:
The unconscious — when purified of fear, desire, and illusion — remembers or recognizes the True Self, the timeless awareness that is consciousness itself.
