In the enlargement of consciousness, we begin to recognize that the coherence of the universal entity of being is the only consistent source of well-being.
All particular finite goals are incomplete and imperfect means to true love.
We become more aware by facing reality without any judging, condemning, or struggling.
We know that our individual being is the recipient of the infinite love of universal unity of Being, and so we grow in our love of what is, that is Reality, Truth, God-- which is eternal, light, and good, not what is transient, heavy, and selfish.
In the unitive phase of the third stage of self aware consciousness, we are conscious of thought in the plane of the spirit, which leads to understanding of the conflicts of all lower planes.

When we struggle aggressively or strive idealistically to be better, we cannot see the truth and thereby grow in goodness.
The better is an obstacle to the good. Any effort to become better keeps us from entering the full state of constant awareness.
Awareness that is nonjudgmental and choiceless characterizes conscious thought in the spiritual plane, which is the unitive phase of the third stage of self awareness.
We automatically grow in goodness when we recognize the truth, whereas we block growth when we try to be better.

A Glance At Mental Health Practice
Behaviour is often a complex phenomenon irrespective of how goal directed it is.
A lot of what humans do is to regulate emotions through several stages of cognition and accompanying action.
Mental health disciplines have often tried to medicalize behavior and give biological basis for mental disorders, there are often drawbacks for the medical view as it fails to yield sensitive and specific delineations of these conditions.
These days behavioural syndromes and endophenotypes are commonly used in research as they are thought to aggregate in families and give more meaning to interpretation of behavioural illnesses.
Several checklists have been developed over time to make diagnosis and case formulation more streamlined but the problems with these lists are that they rarely look into the biological problems of mental illness and often appear as poetic medicine or at best a social science having a vague understanding of neurobiology.
Some other problems with biological models is that they give little room for self enhancement through learning and are often focused on the relief of acute symptoms, most times except in cases of depression and anxiety, subjective feelings are reported without recourse towards understanding the possible psychosocial and biophysical foundations for such.
The good news for mental health is that there is a lot of research going on especially in the developed world and each practitioner will decide on whether to add to the progressive body of knowledge and make use of it or just stick to elementary and reductive knowledge.
