I am currently reading and absorbing Dr. David Hawkins' trilogy. This is the most amazing simplicity of what 'it' is all about:

The animal knows and loves that it is, but it has no knowledge of its source or destiny. The spiritual sage emerges as a consequence of that level of consciousness which discovers its source and proclaims the discovery of the information for all. The spiritual information then illuminates the possibilities of the soul's destiny at the cessation of human physicality.

Kind of reminded me of Bruce Moen's cosmograph - Curiousity:

A probe returned on its own.
