The powers of the human mind

BY: RONNIE Myers

There is an old adage that says, 'A mind is terrible thing to waste'

An in-depth metaphysical research on the mind disclosed that we are all endowed with a three-dimensional mind, namely:

1. The Conscious Mind.

2. The Sub-conscious Mind

3. The Highest Mind

We observe that our conscious minds control our conscious activities such as,

Seeing, hearing, tasting, feeling and smelling.

Our Sub-Conscious Mind was designed to control our unconscious acts relative to dreaming, entering into trances, hypnotic states and the control of astral travels. Some of us also believe that our minds have the ability to move objects without physical contact, transmit thoughts, has perfect memory and incredible powers of concentration.

The conscious and the sub-conscious minds were probably created to work in a manner whereby only one mind should be in control at any specific time. This idea is best demonstrated by observing that in most cases only one person may sit comfortable in a chair or on a throne. When the conscious mind is on the throne, the sub-conscious mind should be off the throne and vice versa. If both should occupy the throne or chair at the same time such action may result in chaos. Certain drugs, deep breathing and sometimes music or other chemical or organic substances may induce or invite both conscious and un-conscious minds to occupy the throne at the same time. Can you imagine being under the influence of a drug such as cocaine that has the ability to put your Mind into the sub-conscious state; while the conscious mind is sharing the throne? Under such influence it may be possible to injury another person believing you are dreaming.

A popular school of thought is that the sub-conscious mind is the vehicle that ferry thoughts from the conscious to the Highest Mind and again from the Highest Mind back down to the conscious. We generally believe that the proper channeling of the flow of information back and forth between these levels of the minds normally results in enlightenment, in the form of divine inspiration.

A clear understanding of the working principles of the mind is vital to those seeking to develop intelligence from information gathered at the conscious level of the mind. Such intelligence will help to protect our minds from irresponsible waste.
