Gemstones and Awareness
Gemstones and Awareness
by Abhijita Kulshretha
The subconscious of the human mind is a very vast territory. It is that portion of the mind which remains unexplored as most human beings ‘believe’ that they operate from the level of conscious mind only (this of course is a very small component of the actual mind).
However, even in an individuals most unaware state of self, it is the subconscious mind that drives most of the decisions, choices and courses of action. One may be paddling ones boat in an illusion of control but the reverse is quite true. It is the impressions of the unknown past that drive this engine.
The ancients realized this early as they sought to understand themselves and the world around them. And the most profound truth they came was this – II Yat pinde, tat brahmande II …that which is within defines the world around you! That the body is the microcosm and the universe is the macrocosm. In other words “As above, so below”. It is ultimately the consciousness that is the center of all things.
The power of creation mirrors itself in each creature. The conditions that we nurture within our bodies becomes out world. If an individual is given to vices, the tattva or the essence of all that is consumed by him/ her by any of the senses – sights, sounds, smells, tastes or actions – gets assimilated and begins to alter the nature and fundamentals of the microcosm.
