I don’t quite understand about “the physical consciousness” being obscure.
The physical consciousness is that part which directly responds to physical things and physical Nature, sees the outer only as real, is occupied with it – not like the thinking mind with thought and knowledge, or like the vital with emotion, passion, subtler satisfaction of desire. If this part is obscure, then it is difficult to bring into it the consciousness of deeper or spiritual things, feelings etc. even when the mind or the vital are after these deeper things.
There is a flower called “Aspiration in the Physical”, what does it mean?
Aspiration means aspiration for the Divine, for higher consciousness etc.
