The 10 Rules of the Subconscious Mind "There is only one journey. Going inside yourself." -- Rainer Maria Rilke Our subconscious mind exerts a powerful influence over our lives. It preserves and runs the body. It stores and organizes memories, emotions and energy. It controls and maintains all of our perceptions. Over 95% of what we do, think and say comes from old programming in our subconscious mind. Unless you make a conscious effort to direct the immense power of your subconscious, its robotic and limited programs will run your life. It will sabotage your best intentions. And yet, it's not difficult to work with the subconscious. You just have to know what you're doing. Here are a few things you should know about the subconscious: 1. Despite its power, the subconscious is a servant of the conscious mind. It follows orders by acting on whatever is fed to it. It cannot distinguish between what is real and what is imagined. It has no sense of humour and takes everything very literally. Your conscious mind is the gate- keeper. For personal power, you must be aware of what you are allowing into the subconscious. And you can intentionally program it to manifest what you want in life. 2. The subconscious mind responds with instinct and habit. As thinking and behavioural patterns deepen, they become habits and they become harder and harder to change. 3. Use repetition, authority and emotion to program the subconscious. Affirm and visualize often what you desire. Be strong, wilful and in command. Draw on your passion and emotional power to affirm what you want, as emotions have a very strong impact on the subconscious mind. 4. The subconscious mind does not process negatives. For this reason, all affirmations and statements must be positive. Do not say, "I will not gain weight." The 'not' is not recorded - the subconscious mind only hears "I will gain weight." 5. The subconscious represses memories with unresolved negative emotions. The memories will get buried, yet the beliefs and feelings associated with them will still control your reactions. This is why it is important to become aware of and resolve strong guilt, resentment, fears, anger and depression. 6. The subconscious mind works with symbols and metaphors. Watch your dreams closely for symbols that will offer clues to underlying issues that need to be resolved. 7. It takes everything personally. It keeps a photocopy of everything. Whenever you criticize, resent, judge and project negative thoughts and feelings onto others, you experience the negativity as your own. 8. The subconscious works on the principle of least effort. It follows the path of least resistance. Without purposeful direction from our conscious mind, it follows the easiest, usually more negative path of our engrained habits. 9. It has a need to be moral. The subconscious mind is also the source of a higher aspect of yourself. This God force, Soul energy or whatever you want to call it supports your evolution towards love, unity, beauty and truth. Consciously working with the subconscious opens us to higher levels of wisdom and love. 10. It knows only the present time. There is no future or past in the subconscious mind. All stored experiences are processed as NOW. Know that the past affects you NOW, as the subconscious replays past programming in the present. So affirm in the now, not in the future. And understand that you have the power right now to re-write sabotaging programs from the past so you can claim a better future. The Initiation teaches us how to direct the immense power of the subconscious mind. We learn to revamp old, limited programs so they realign with the higher powers available to us. "When you choose to understand the workings of your own mind and choose to exercise control over the functions and attributes of your own mind, you will be empowered to create your own reality, to be completely self-reliant and totally prosperous." - Delfin Knowledge System |

30 Ways to Distinguish Intuition from Lower Levels of Information "It takes courage to grow up and turn out to be who you really are." -- e. e. cummings The more aware we become, the more intuition develops for us. The more we can access our intuition, the faster we grow and change. The key is to understand the language of intuition. How can you tell if the 'inner voice' is God's, other beings, other people's projections or your own judgmental thoughts? The tips below will help you discriminate and discern the TRUTH. Read the list over often and get a strong sense of how to discern higher guidance. Expand your inventory of how you sense the higher or lower information that comes into your physical and non-physical senses. LOWER LEVELS OF INFORMATION ----- HIGHER LEVELS OF INTUITION demand obedience or surrender ----- suggest, advise - you make your own decisions conflict with one's personal ethics ----- no conflict with personal ethics create fear, negativity ----- create love, inspiration, empowerment are generalities, long winded ----- are relevant, short, intelligent, unique are conditional ----- are unconditional, appropriate and natural to you appeal to curiosity, ego ----- appeal to goodwill, beauty, unity from confusing, competing voices ----- from still, single knowing voice affirm ultimate authority for itself ----- counsel surrender to higher power require no personal effort ----- need personal effort guidance from subconscious ----- guidance from the Soul emotional desires, glamour ----- higher spiritual guidance benefit the receiver ----- benefit the good of the whole fixed interpretations ----- many levels of interpretation create dependencies ----- create interdependence promote separation ----- reflect oneness, wholeness, unity are self conscious ----- are other conscious affirm mediocrity ----- promote making a difference reflect a part of the whole ----- reflect the whole are emotional, mental ----- are intuitive focus on things ----- focus on essence and values result in loss of self ----- result in self discovery focus on desires, wants ----- focus on soul needs address individual ----- address community deal with form ----- deal with symbols, truths concerned with self will ----- reflect divine will create victims ----- require accountability are sporadic ----- are disciplined create stress ----- create peace of mind are personal ----- are impersonal are restrictive ----- are expansive are particular ----- are universal are controlling ----- are allowing focus on self ----- focus on others or Soul focus on destination ----- focus on process are exclusive ----- are inclusive are judging ----- are accepting are scattered ----- are focused are limited ----- are unlimited focus on material ----- focus on spiritual are reactive ----- are proactive are concrete ----- are abstract focus on past, future ----- focus on now deal with personality ----- concern Soul produce inertia ----- generate growth stuff in ----- draw out focus on quantity ----- focus on quality are selfish ----- are altruistic are superficial ----- are deep create resistance ----- create flow focus on lack ----- focus on abundance are static ----- are dynamic focus on me ----- focus on humanity create illusion ----- reveal truth focus on work ----- focus on service focus on mine ----- focus on God's use force ----- use power focus on effect ----- focus on cause take ----- give produce fear ----- experience love emphasize doing ----- emphasize being "Follow your bliss and doors will open where there were no doors before." -- Joseph Campbell |
