I believe consciousness comes from consciousness
When my consciousness is conscious of itself; that is the nature of self-conscious. This is the parameter and context that consciousness exists on; consciousness is only known to oneself;oneself being the soul; the soul being is an inner entity that everyone possesses, but in fact most of the population are not fully aware of; for various reasons both intentional and unintentional; both realized and unrealized; mostly because people are not conscious of their own soul as well as the vastness of spiritual knowledge.
So why does consciousness have such value? Consciousness is one symptom of the soul; there are various symptoms of the soul but only consciousness can be aware of any and every symptom of the soul and it is the mechanism to which they are acquired ; spiritual knowledge is acquired when consciousness is conscious of itself; and recognizes consciousness as the most important function of a soul, because consciousness is the one symptom of the soul that remains stagnant when other symptoms of the soul are malleable and changing in their nature; the contents of the consciusness change but the nature of consciusness is always the same; in a sense eternal in this world until our death, that is when our consciousness be conscious: when the nature of consciousness changes, ceases to exist in this experience. That is why it is the most important symptom of the soul; that is why a transcendental mode of consciousness achieved through a mode of satva is valuable over a mode of passion or a mode of ignorance.
That is why spiritual knowledge is valuable over material knowledge.
