Most clear expression of our collective consciousness is team spirit. We naturally form teams in all actions we do collectively. An example would be a team working on a research project. As the team forms, a team spirit is formed too, which is different than the sum of all individuals. Many people are very sensitive to the interests of the team and to the formation of team spirit. Although many of people could be materialistically thinking individuals, they could naturally and intuitively sensing team spirit and interacting with it one way or another. Many people voluntarily or subconsciously succumb their individual interests to the interests of the team and allow team spirit to work through them.
