Consciousness Isn't Doing Anything, It Never Changes

A man says he has been on the progressive path for years. He came across Rupert's videos, and he's finding it harder to play his role since learning about the teachings. He asks about consciousness localising itself in order to experience the finite. He wonders if that is a metaphor. How can we know? It seems rather anthropomorphic. Rupert responds that it's not possible, ultimately, for the finite to know the infinite. He uses the metaphor of viewing a glass from multiple perspectives. It is anthropomorphic from the point of view of the individual. Consciousness isn't doing anything, it never changes. Beyond that, we cannot say anything.
