peace and hotep,

ayinde, when you ask:

"What is consciousness?",

consciousness is an distracted state of being "awake" and can be arrived at through 'a wakeful trance'.

ayinde, when you ask:

"How or when do you consider someone to be conscious?",

some one is conscious when thoughts and visions are not impaired and sight is clear of distractions or confusions.

ayinde, when you state:

"(Just give your views and not cut and paste stuff from the Internet or use quotes from others.)",

please forgive my infantile attempts at organization and re-organization. i am attempting to identify distractions (even the ones i own) and sight withe clear vision.

flesh borne into negative
i aspire to leave positive.

however, i can not resist my own programming (because there's so much sindrome, placebo syndromes created by those three blind mice. arrogance, ignorance and stubbornness. have you ever seen such a sight in your life):
