Whatever happens now is crucial to the future of the planet and the people who inhabit it. There is great turmoil as a result of a great need for change. Thus, the changes that are happening now will bring about even more change as they shift the status quo, the reliable structures and the consensus reality that you have so relied on for centuries. The changes now underway are pushing open the doors to new life ahead. And just as each new season brings change, so is each new day now bringing change. Keep focused on the change toward good, making your own good decisions and taking good actions, keeping your thoughts focused on what is right and what will benefit the most people.
Continue to stay focused on healing, on helping, on harmony within and without. There is no greater inner work than the work of healing that is instigated within and sent far and wide. You may not even know the person you are intending healing for, but your own good healing energy can penetrate the atmosphere, far and wide, and find its mark, even one that is only a thought in your mind. The mind, when trained and focused, is a powerful tool. Use it for healing and reap in return the simple rewards of a job well done.
Victor Frankl, survivor of four concentration camps during the Holocaust, gifted the world with the empirical truth that the inner freedom to think can literally save one’s life. Additionally, he established that no circumstance, however dire, could take that power to think away from anyone. Frankel’s discoveries are particularly relevant to our current world, itself approaching conditions of holocaust on many fronts.
Freedom to think is distinct from freedom to speak. Freedom of speech is extremely perilous in our present world, as it can be met with serious consequences, even death itself. Speaking is extraverted and therefore outwardly expressive. By contrast, thinking is an introverted, inward thought process that impacts the subconscious mind in the realm of the transpersonal Soul.
It is true that unspoken thoughts are themselves energetic entities that crowd the subtle atmosphere and attract the attention of receptive minds, such as through the practice of intentional healing prayer. However, even in this positive instance, targeted thought suggestions to the subconscious mind of another person will only be received if they resonate with that person’s values and beliefs.
Nonetheless, controls upon free speech and extreme propaganda, at the heart of the influencer industry, barrage the human mind incessantly with falsities targeted to control human belief and behavior. These persistent messages can take root and cloud access to one’s inner freedom to think clearly.
To avoid this type of barrage we are wisely advised to limit our exposure to emotionally charged rhetoric that seeks to hook our attention through fear mongering, and to direct our attention instead to our own inner thought processes. Inwardly, we are best advised to find calm in meditation, and truth through inner reflection and connection with our own true Spirit.
Robert Monroe, before each of his journeys into the subtle realms of infinity, always stated the intent that he would only accept an interaction with an entity that was at his level of morality and knowledge, or beyond, and that they should hold only benevolent intent. We can present these same suggestions to our own subconscious mind, with the intent to include both subtle thoughts and interactions, and to protect ourselves from outer world influencers as well, thus insuring maximum protection from undesirable influence, within and without.
The power of thought that Victor Frankl tapped into was the ability to manifest the life he suggested to his subconscious mind on the plane of the imagination, which he could live in and be supported by, as he navigated the horrors of life on the physical plane of existence, until the war ended.
His positive dissociation was hardly schizophrenic nor in denial of physical reality. Victor Frankl was already a practicing psychiatrist by the time he went into the concentration camps, acutely aware of reality in time and space, but he was able, through the power of imagination, to live in two planes of reality simultaneously.
In truth, we all exist simultaneously on several planes of existence. The current state of the world is concurrent with our awakening to the rarified energetic conditions of life on the astral plane, where the power of thought is the key to manifestation. As we move deeper into the Aquarian Age, our utilization of this power has the potential to completely change physical life on this planet.
We are presently at the beginning of such knowledge, but as shown in the accomplishments of Victor Frankl, we can utilize the extreme conditions of now to access the stupendous empowerment of our freedom to think, to both survive now and to manifest the world we truly want, through the power of the subconscious mind.
Best to keep your relation to your subconscious mind sacred and personal. That which we talk about inevitably attracts the energy of resistance. The containment of a suggestion within the womb of self allows it to mature, without interference, and to be born when it is truly due.
May your suggestions also be impregnated with the intent for the greater good of all.
I have been a serious student of the psyche for the past 50 years. By my early 20’s I had amassed a substantial portion of Jung’s Collected Works, some of which I’ve yet to fully read!
I’ve spent an equivalent amount of time immersed in the shamanic world of Carlos Castaneda, which provided me the tools and knowhow to explore the energy body, what religious traditions have called the Soul.
Both Freud and Jung explored the therapeutic utility of hypnosis, which accesses the power of the subconscious mind. Ultimately, they both abandoned hypnosis in favor of more reliable outcomes obtainable through their new discipline of psychotherapy.
Ancient knowledge of the power of trance and suggestion can be found in the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali. Hindu literature is filled with warnings about the power of suggestion to control and manipulate human behavior. One is coached to choose one’s guru wisely.
Beyond these concerns about the potential limitations or abuses raised about hypnosis, the more fundamental truth that hypnosis reveals is that the human mind operates largely through the power of suggestion. What we tell ourselves and truly believe is what we become. Our lives are run by autosuggestions that we deliver, or take in from others, to our subconscious minds
Joe Dispenza’s book, You Are The Placebo, is a testament to the power of belief and autosuggestion to heal. The placebo effect is what truly heals. If you truly believe something can happen, it will. Mainstream scientific experiment emphasizes placebo as evidence that something didn’t work, rather than absolutely marveling at, and delving into, the power of the mind to make something happen.
Healers and philosophers of the 19th and 20th century New Thought Movement in America believed that Christ was a teacher who emphasized the divine in all individuals versus a divinity unique to himself. They culled the secret to his healing power in biblical stories: an individual must believe within themselves that they can be healed, and only then shall it come to pass. The secret: the placebo effect.
As surmised by New Thought practitioners, the power of this simple truth so threatened religious institutions that they withdrew the notion of divine power from humans and instituted the reigning power of dogma, with dependence upon institutions outside the self being the only way to be guided in wisdom and healing.
We are currently living through a time of unraveling, where core beliefs that have sustained the human race for centuries are being replaced with new beliefs, suggesting a whole new world. The role of the thought police, in controlling what can be stated, written and talked about, is increasingly evident. Suspending all judgment, it is truly a remarkable example of how suggestion and belief create a world.
The subconscious mind has the absolute power to manifest a physical reality, for better or for worse. Although it is largely suggested to by the accumulated wisdom of the instincts and the archetypes, the subconscious is powerfully impressed upon by the beliefs and desires of the conscious mind. Thus, the inexhaustible wealth of the subconscious mind is best accessed through a mature conscious mind.
The ultimate check on how we exercise our power of suggestion is karma. The divine power of the subconscious mind will acquiesce to any belief impressed upon it, but it does not control the outcomes of these effects. We reap what we sow, for better or for worse.
The subconscious mind records and stores every bit of experience we have had in this life, as well as in past lives, and, at the deepest levels, the entire history of the universe and beyond. Edgar Cayce provided diagnoses and healing prescriptions for thousands of unknown patients while in trance. Everything is accessible if one believes it to be possible.
In shamanic recapitulation one can access all the details of a forgotten life, as one intends a healing journey and trusts the guidance and promptings of the subconscious mind.
The subconscious mind is our greatest means of invisible support. If we approach it with faith and gratitude for all that it does for our physical and mental bodies, we are surely to be supported in the changes we seek.
Never to be underestimated is the power of the conscious mind, which is solely responsible for the life it suggests and manifests through its suggestions to the subconscious mind.
Please note that my affirming always the suggestion of the greater good is hardly the shallowness levied at positive affirmations somewhat in vogue now as expressed in the phrase toxic positivity. What I have outlined here is a paradigm shift in the understanding of the structure and dynamics of the psyche which highlights the power of divine action taken by the subconscious mind in response to human desire and true belief. That action is undeniably real and with it comes the divine responsibility to be in alignment with the truth.
Intend always the greater good, for self and other, Chuck
Opposition within our human mind is being reflected, and physically enacted, in all the destructive events currently unfolding on the human playing field. Thought is the prime cause of physical reality. What we believe is what comes to be.
This opposition in mind is rooted in two rival attitudes within the conscious mind. In one corner is the rational mind that holds that seeing is believing. Logic is law, and observable reality is the only fundamental truth.
In the other corner is a conscious attitude that believes in supernatural powers inherent and programmable in the subconscious mind. This attitude does not dismiss the value of the rational mind but broadens it to include a conscious relationship with the spiritual dimension of the subconscious mind.
A conscious attitude that embraces the existence and power of a subconscious mind is the enemy of rationality. Nietzsche expressed simply the truest belief of the rational mind: “God is dead.” Reason has no place for unseen powers and spirituality. Reason lives in a material world—period. Beyond physical life is lights out.
Everyone is challenged with these two attitudes. Who doesn’t turn to material solution when confronted with a physical issue? Who can state, with certainty, that unseen spiritual forces exist and can change physical life? These conflicting attitudes are in a war without compromise. As reflected outwardly, we see no war on the current human stage amenable to compromise.
Perhaps the greatest institution of rational thought and scientific discovery in the modern world is Harvard University. Look at the current full-throttle attack on Harvard, as well as all similarly established institutions of higher learning.
Of course, we can point to actual personalities causing this standoff, but at the deepest level this struggle is the physical expression of the battle raging within the human psyche for control and exercise of the human mind. The irrational is deeply challenging the rational at the university level.
Pure reason’s arch rival is called the power of suggestion, which holds that through the employment of conscious suggestion to the subconscious mind, physical reality is impacted. In this paradigm, the subconscious mind is imbued with divine power and is in divine obligation to manifest the word, or intent, impressed upon it by the conscious mind.
This warring backdrop of mind is actually an evolutionary struggle in a developmental process of maturity of our collective mind. At the early stages of human evolution the subconscious mind was the only mind that directed life, through manifesting instinctive suggestions impressed upon it. This level of control still largely runs the systems of the human body.
With the advent of consciousness came the rational mind with its ability to override the automatic instincts lodged in the subconscious mind. Reason gradually took dominance over decision making, which, through its unknown power of suggestion upon the subconscious mind, generated our current world of dominant rational belief. This dominance of the world’s mind by reason is now flagrantly being challenged upon the world stage, and we are all experiencing it.
The developmental stage we are currently embroiled in insists that the power of reason and spiritual potential be reconciled. Many a journeyer into the deeper realms of the collective unconscious has been overwhelmed by encounters with non-ordinary reality at the subtle energy dimensions of our being.
I personally, as a young boy, was terrified nightly by the disintegrative impact of such encounters. Had I not my rational mind’s ability to create a structure that allowed me to navigate the vastness of infinity, my fragile ego would have surely disintegrated into nothingness.
Paranoid schizophrenics are telling the truth when they say that television characters are speaking directly to them, as they are experiencing the synchronous interconnectedness of all things. Unfortunately, the impact of such a broader view overwhelms their narrow ego foothold upon reality and they succumb to psychosis, flitting about in infinity without a captain at the wheel of their floundering ship.
Without reason we are severely handicapped at the spiritual dimensions of our being. With only reason, we can never know and experience the fullness of all that we are.
We also need conscious reasoning to assume responsible control for the suggestions we submit to our subconscious mind. The world at present is experiencing the effect of impulsive suggestions controlling the world’s subconscious mind, manifesting incessant changing realities on a minute-to-minute basis. The power of the subconscious mind is available to deliver both balance or chaos.
The developmental challenge at the moment is for the rational mind to choose right action in its directives to the subconscious mind. This is bringing truth to power. We are all challenged to choose the greater good over the equal potential of choosing all for self-interest only.
Be empowered to realize that the outer state of things has its roots in the inner state of things. We all have the ability to solve the state of the outer world by solving the state of the world within. And as you explore your inner powers be like a true alchemist, share your findings with no-one. When we share our beliefs and experiences we invite the thought police.
Just as the world of journalism is losing its ability to express free speech, when we share our experiences we invite the reactionary beliefs of someone else’s conscious and subconscious minds, which then impacts our own subconscious. We are then barraged telepathically, as well as outright verbally, with beliefs that instill doubt or burden us with the hostility of others.
When engaging the power of your own subconscious mind, tell your rational mind to suspend judgment. Allow that mind to release its grip as you relax the body and become groggy. Then state your suggestion and allow your imagination and emotion to impress your subconscious with its desire.
Note your results privately over time. As you discover the validity of the process via your results, your rational mind will step up to the plate and embrace the greater truth of its former rival attitude. This is how these two attitudes are reconciled. Ask your growingly confident rational mind to stay suggestive only to the intent for the greater good for all.
This reconciliation of warring attitudes within will ultimately reflect in a changed world without, as we evolve consciousness to further include all that we truly are.
