The short end of the stick is that all inner change or personal transformation happens at a deeper level of consciousness. No matter how brilliant our thoughts and ideas are, they are not sufficient to bring about real change. When it comes down to making powerful and positive shifts in our life, knowledge by itself is superfluous. That means that you can conceptually and rationally grasp the secrets of the universe but you can only put them into practice by integrating them into your totality of self.
The idea of course is nothing new. Ancient spiritual practices such as meditation and Yoga or modern practices such as hypnosis and neuro linguistic programming (NLP) have at their core the common goal of accessing deeper levels of consciousness and using those states to reprogram the mind. Deep healing, intuition, tapping into your amazing source of creativity and changing counterproductive beliefs are some of the things that are easily achievable through tuning into your deeper states of mind.
The Unconscious that is very Conscious and well Connected
Psychology talks about the notion of the subconscious and unconscious as facets of our psyche that lie beneath the threshold of conscious thought and reasoning. I prefer to use what Robert Wagonner refers to as ‘the conscious unconscious’ in his book ‘Lucid Dreaming: Gateway to the Inner Self’. Ultimately these are just labels to parts of ourself we know very little of, but I choose Wagonner’s term because it implies that there is a vast part of ourself which rather than being unconscious or subconscious, it is wiser, larger and more conscious of the bigger picture than our waking states of consciousness can ever be. I also like how dream therapist Robert Moss talks about the big self and the little self – The big self comprises those deeper levels of our consciousness which are ultimately connected to the source and to everything else, hence why many refer to it as our divine infinite self, our spirit or our multidimensional being.
Just post the damn story here and quit being a click whore.
