GOOD SENSE AND COMMON SENSE
The personal relationship with the dominant way of thinking, with established beliefs, and with all that is passively absorbed throughout life and never, or almost never, questioned. We tend to accept the world as it is, and we do so depending on the time and place in which we find ourselves living. Moral references are needed, however, otherwise we move like flags exposed to the wind.

INSTINCTUALITY AND SELF-CONTROL
The ability to stop and reflect and keep impulses at bay when the situation becomes delicate requiring self-control and rationality. Acting on instinct may help in certain cases, but in the long run it may not be an effective strategy and it becomes necessary to cultivate a more reflective attitude.

MATERIALISM AND CONSUMERISM
Knowing how to untangle between real needs and needs induced by advertising and by the exhibitionism of a consumerist society that is very focused on having and appearing. Developing a deeper consciousness involves the ability to place proper value on things, and also knowing how to detach oneself from them when needed.

14. If you could create an ideal world, what would you increase and what would you decrease?
INTROVERSION AND EXTROVERSION
The tendency to turn one’s gaze and interest toward one’s inner self, or, conversely, toward the outer world. The inner world asks complex questions, the outer world provides simple and comfortable answers. Introversion is often a sign of depth of soul, extroversion is frequently a sign of insecurity.

17. Which of the scenarios proposed below causes you the most discomfort?
18. Why do people seem to be more swaggering and confident when interacting virtually?
DOUBTS AND CERTAINTIES
Is it better to ask questions or focus on answers? The temperament of the spiritual seeker is doubtful; that of the worldly man is full of certainties. But have we ever wondered if those certainties taken for granted have any real foundation? The idea of questioning everything can be frightening, yet evolving also means being able to face one’s fears.
19. Do you prefer to ask yourself questions or give yourself answers?

RELIGIOSITY AND SPIRITUALITY
Religion, at least in theory, deals with the spiritual needs of human beings. However, religiosity and spirituality are by no means synonymous and, at times, can even be mutually exclusive. Belief and Intuition are two different things, and a dogmatic attitude is certainly not favoring the path to soul awakening.

25. What do you think about Reincarnation?

DUALISM AND DUALITY
The human mind is divided into two hemispheres, and this is probably where the dualistic worldview comes from. Black and white, true and false, good and evil. However, the universe does not follow the rules of the mind, and the spiritual seeker knows how much thoughts can distort the perception of reality and lead us away from the path of truth.
29. Free will may be defined as:
30. Choose the noun combination that makes the most sense to you:

33. Last and most important question, it can completely overturn the outcome of the test (*): how do you rate the questions on this test?
HOW ARE THE RESULTS CALCULATED?
Each question contributes a certain number of points to the final score. Some questions weigh more than others, meaning that one question deemed important may be worth as much as two deemed less impactful.
The Awareness score (xx/200) is given by the algebraic sum of the points obtained in the individual questions.
The calculation of the Awareness level (e.g., Spiritual), on the other hand, is based not only on the algebraic sum of the points obtained in the individual questions, but also on any contradictions detected by the system in the replies provided by the user. What does it mean? In essence, the software is capable of discerning whether the individual is operating without logical coherence, presenting some responses that are notably conscious and others that are entirely impulsive. In such instances, it will apply a smoothing algorithm, lowering the final result by one level while keeping the overall score intact. By doing so, the system prevents users who respond impulsively, or attempt to cheat, from achieving a high level of Awareness.
