Conscience is God's presence in man.
Please critically evaluate this expansion.
CONSCIENCE IS GOD'S PRESENCE IN MAN. Put in simple words, conscience is the inner voice of a man coming from deep within the spirit. It is that source from which emanate the principles and laws which shape the contours of the life of man. It is the part of soul that guides him at every aspect of life as if there lived God within man. Almighty has proclaimed in His Last Book that He is nearer to man than his jugular veins. Thus, God lives within man symbolically in the form of conscience. Few would doubt this assertion since conscience is pious and piety is the attribute of God. Hence, whatever is indicative of God's presence in man, is conscience. For example, God Almighty has ordered man to follow the path of righteousness since he was created. Striking on a similar note is conscience in man that compells him to move along the rightly guided path whenever he goes astray. This is how God dwells within a man. Moreover, God Almighty orders his creation superior most to perform virtuos deeds aimed at the betterment of himself as well as the community surrounding him. Not surprisingly, conscience as well dictates man to do the works of noblety. Thus it speaks of God's presence within man. Besides, The Creator prohibits man from committing any sins. Conscience within man, similarly, prohibits him to abstain from any act that creates social chaos and the guilt within him. It is the conscience that warns him repeatedly against the undesirable consequences of the sinful deeds a man plans to commit. Does it not suggest his presence within man then? It does, indeed. In other words, conscience directs man to attain social, physical and spiritual perfection. This is exactly what God Almighty desires of man. Thus it would not be tantamount to any exaggeration that conscience is God's presence in man. |

Your language and sentence-making is excellent but what i noticed in your short essay is that you have not comprehended the meaning of the word CONSCIENCE. The word,conscience, is not used in the sense of framing principles or rules of life. Rather it is used to prevent oneself from immoral or unacceptable or sinful things because one thinks that God almighty sees him.
This is my perception; may be you are right.

Dear TheUniter,
I am very glad that you found time to comment on a few of my paragraphs. Therefore, I recognise your service rendered unto me. Coming to the expansion, my dear, I do not know much about philosophy. And hence the topics like this one make much troubles for me. However, I try to be as much relevant as I can. Conscience in my view, as you also mentioned in your post, is the sense that makes him decide between what is good and what is bad. I just extended it a little. We base our principles of life after determining what is good and what is bad. Isn't it? We can't keep extra marital relationship. Why? Only because our conscience (shaped by religion, customs and traditions) prohibits us from doing so. Thus, we make it a principle of our life. Therefore, in my view conscience is the base upon which we found many of our principles of life. Difference of ideas, my friend, is very necessary for their nourishment. We differ on certain issues and hence we exist as separate entities. Here goes my salam mingled with utmost respect for you. May you always remain closer to your friend, Kashif |
