Gita and Arthasasthra - War, Panpsychism and Protoconsciousness

Consciousness is a fundamental part of matter. Substrate of everything is of mental character. Mind is the first and most direct thing in our experience and all else is remote experience. The fact that all matter is conscious solves the hard problems of consciousness. Consciousness cannot arise out of unconsciousness. The states of violence and war results from suppression of the cerebral cortex and dominance of the cerebellum leading to a cerebellar cognitive affective disorder. This leads to a states of transcendence and connection to the universal protoconsciousness field which gives the states of war a sense of sacredness. This is exemplified by the Mahabharata war and Gita as well as rituals of Zen Buddishm and Sufi warriors. The modern concept of religious terrorism has also relation to these states of transcendence. The Hindu rituals of animal sacrifice and other modes of worship can also have their substrates in this mode of transcendence.
