The more developed the brain then the more seemingly developed the Consciousness, but of course that is all bollocks.
I agree with you in the context of how you are saying the above, and if i got it right, you are saying that humans are not more advanced (spiritually?) than animals just because our brain (or intellectual) capacity is more advanced?
I do agree with that, and really i think it's like comparing apples and oranges somewhat anyways. While all Soul energy is connected, because all consciousness is One, there are different levels to Creation.
Some levels have more potential freedom of movement from one level to the next, and particularly speaking of the Soul energies that inhabit humans and other humanoid like Beings throughout the Universe. Btw, interesting to note how universal that pattern is when it comes to advanced intelligent sentiment life, no?
Other levels, like animals, seem to be a more "closed loop" kind of program wherein there is not quite the same degree or amount of potential or probability for freedom of movement from one level to another.
But since it's all connected, it's possible that one level can share it's info, knowledge, and experience with others despite that perhaps one level in the equation may not have directly experienced something.
It seems to me from what guidance i've received about this that the Soul level that inhabits animal forms,
was specifically created to inhabit those animal forms. Whereas our Soul level was not specifically created to inhabit these human forms. It's something that organically happened, and while it may have been a potentiality or even probability, it was not specifically set up that way by some force outside of us. It was the freewill choice on part of many individual Souls of that level.
And really, many of us became stuck once we got involved with the physical, and so a program of creating the right vehicles for our expression and eventual disengagement was enacted by the Co-Creator (working with very spiritually mature E.T. groups) of this world.
Which leads me to another aspect of line of thought that your post, specifically the last sentence, sparked within me.
Physical and Consciousness are not as separate as we tend to think and perceive them. You could say that physical is a type of consciousness with it's own peculiar qualities and tendencies. Physical and nonphysical are for lack of better terms, fields that superimpose on each other, they are connected and yet they are different because they have a very different rate of vibration.
So, there is an interconnection there, and this leads to some interesting revelations when one really thinks holistically about these related but different fields within the Total, One Field of Consciousness.
Speaking of humans. Say you take a random group of humans with different genetic backgrounds and separate them from the rest of the masses and the influence of the rest of humanity as much as possible.
This group of humans are taught and trained differently from the masses from birth, and they live very different lifestyles.
Say for example, they have special diets designed to optimize physical health and balance. Say they all partake in daily physical activity and get plenty of natural exercise.
Say, they are open to nonphysical reality and perceptions and teach this from an early age in a balanced way and practice both meditation and prayer.
Say there are certain common high ideals of the group, and certain common "morals" wherein it's understood by most individuals that it's important to be sincere-honest, loving, patient, etc. and disciplined in ones thoughts and feelings along certain lines. Mental and intellectual training is also stressed, though not to the degree of the spiritual and ideals part.
Say also, individuals voluntarily agree to allow the more intune seers of the group, to suggest mating partners based on the right mixing of genetic and energy patterns in order to produce a healthier and more balanced offspring. Say this is an act of PUL and not personal love.
With such a balanced holistic application of right spiritual, mental, and physical activities and attunements, eventually the bodies being born into this unusual group will become different than the norm.
The bodies and genetics will become healthier, more balanced, more easily able to allow the faster vibrating fields of consciousness to stream through or rather vibrate the slower vibratory field to a faster rate.
The brains will become more advanced in the sense of greater brain capacity and balance between the left and right hemispheres. Eventually, they will all become "good looking" as well.
In essence, form follows and is molded by thought and consciousness, and what we do and think while in the physical has its definite effects on the physical and the physical has some effect on our consciousness as well.
Now, such a group as the above sounds very unlikely and unusual to most ears, but interestingly, i know of two main time periods and two main groups which DID all the above to great benefit for themselves and humanity in general.
The first group was a group of Ancient Egyptians that lived many, many, many years ago in the linear time sense (about 12, 500 years ago). They co-created a Golden Age which in many ways has long been forgotten and covered over. It was a great collaboration of many individuals, which created a state, a nation that was quite collectively intune for a relatively long time.
The 2nd group was much more recent in the linear time sense. This group is known to us today as the "Essenes" and their holistic spiritual-health programs over some centuries led to the experience of the fastest vibratory, most balanced and intune BODY so far to be born into the Earth.
That fastest vibratory, most balanced body was a fit and fitting vehicle for such an mature, Source attuned consciousness that was born into it. Such an endeavor on behalf of the Essene allowed and created the right opportunity for such a Consciousness to manifest AS IS within the physical plane.
So, sometimes the more advanced the body and brain, sometimes the more advanced the consciousness attracted to that body and the more they can fully express the fruits of the Spirit directly within the physical.
This is why some spiritually mature E.T. groups are working with the genetic patterns of certain humans in the Earth. They're getting ready for the Changes, and those certain humans are forerunners of a new, improved pattern within the Earth.
So, this is both a consciousness (primarily) and also a physical/body developement. Form would eventually follow consciousness anyways, but it's helpful at times to help speed up the process especially at critical junctures like we are at now.
Eventually humanity in the collective sense, will organically develop to live in much the similar ways that the prehistory ancient Egyptians and the latter Essene's were more specifically directed to by usually spiritually mature and aware facilitators among them. In the future, it will become much more collective and group oriented in nature, which is well symbolized by the symbol/sign Aquarius of which we are starting to phase into.
