Race consciousness poses no real barrier to one who is functioning in awakened spiritual awareness
Mr. Fillmore is referring here only to the undesirable content of race consciousness which needs to be detected and rejected. Not all of race consciousness is negative or undesirable. There is also much good in it. Spiritual discrimination and good judgment enables us to discern the difference between true and false, positive and negative. And our illumined will enables us to make the right choices. Our consciousness can say "no" to the unwanted elements in race consciousness. Our faith can affirm "yes" to the true and useful. Race consciousness poses no real barrier to one who is functioning in awakened spiritual awareness. Ed Rabel, Metaphysics 1, Consciousness, Race Consciousness"
