意識是我們對自身和周遭環境的感知和認識。個人的意識水平，決定了集體的智慧水平。意識的水平反映我們的清醒程度，因此也代表對生存意義的理解和掌握自身利益的能力。在面臨衝突時，意識能讓我們獲得最佳的結果。
個人是集體的一部份，兩者的利益通常一致，但有時也會衝突。當發生衝突時，我們的反應和行動都應該遵從意識。有意識地行動代價最低，因為意識所作的決定，都會考慮自己真正的利益。
為個人得到更大的利益，我們才組成集體，因此集體的要求也必須與個人的需求維持平衡。如果一個集體反過來傷害個人的利益，那麼個人就會傾向離開這個集體，即使身體沒有離開，心理上也會疏離。
很多時候，我們被迫按集體的規範來生活，受集體的支配，意願也被忽略。無論對自己的人生多麼扭曲，我們也要去滿足一個集體的要求，否則就不被視為正常人。
在一個集體中，個人所面臨的嚴重問題，是自己的需求與集體的要求差距擴大。當集體維護了個人的利益，每個人都會感到安心和自豪。但當集體有了新的要求，並忽略個人的利益，就會讓每個人內心充滿矛盾，導致許多錯誤的決策。
然而，個人是集體的基礎，也是保障集體穩定發展的關鍵。只有那些具備足夠意識的個人，才能連結成強大的意識核心。由獨立而穩定的個人所組成的網絡，才是一個有靈魂的集體。否則，所組成的只能是一個無意識的組織，最終都會損害每個成員的利益。
一個人可以感到不安、沮喪或高興，這些情緒會反映他們的意識狀態。一個和諧的集體，必會經常了解個人的情況，聆聽他們的聲音，並支持他們發展個人的意識。這就是集體治理的本質。如果每個人都能清晰地思考，並運用批判式思維過濾信息，那麼，由他們所組成的集體就是一個充滿智慧的集體。
我們需要將個人和集體的關係，看成是一個互相支持的關係。這個關係必須建立在平等和尊重的基礎上，也包含一個合理的目標和行動指引。當每個人都為共同的目標而努力，相互理解並實現有效的合作，我們的集體將會立於不敗之地。

Personal consciousness determines
collective wisdom
Consciousness is our perception and understanding of ourselves and our surroundings. The level of individual consciousness determines the level of collective wisdom. The level of consciousness reflects our level of sobriety, and therefore also represents our understanding of the meaning of existence and our ability to master our own interests. When facing conflict, awareness allows us to achieve the best outcome.
The individual is a part of the collective and the interests of the two are usually aligned, but sometimes conflict. When conflict arises, our reactions and actions should follow the consciousness. Conscious action is the least costly, because decisions made consciously will consider one's own true interests.
We form a collective to obtain greater benefits for individuals, so the
requirements of the collective must remain balanced with the individual's
needs. If a collective in turn harms the interests of individuals, then
individuals will tend to leave the collective, even if they do not leave
physically, they will become psychologically alienated.
Many times, we are forced to live according to the norms of the collective,
dominated by the collective, and wishes are ignored. No matter how distorted
our lives are, we must meet the requirements of a collective, otherwise we
will not be regarded as normal people.
In a collective, the serious problem faced by individuals is the widening gap between their own needs and the collective's demands. When the collective safeguards individual interests, everyone will feel at ease and proud. But when a collective has new demands and ignores individual interests, everyone will be filled with conflicts, leading to many wrong decisions.
However, the individual is the foundation of the collective and the key to ensuring the stable development of the collective. Only those individuals with sufficient consciousness can connect to form a strong core of consciousness. A network composed of independent and stable individuals can be a collective with a soul. Otherwise, what is formed can only be an unconscious organization that will ultimately harm the interests of each member.
A person can feel uneasy, depressed, or cheerful, and these emotions reflect their state of awareness. A harmonious collective must continually understand each person's situation, listen to their voices, and support their personal consciousness development. This is the essence of collective governance. If everyone thinks clearly and use critical thinking to filter information, then the collective they form is a collective full of wisdom.
We need to view the relationship between individuals and collective as one of mutual support. This relationship must be based on equality and respect, and also include a reasonable goal and action guide. When everyone is working towards a common goal, understanding each other and achieving effective cooperation, our collective will become invincible.
