MIND IS LIFE

Our subconscious mind is the part of our mind that contains our thoughts, sense experience and emotions that we have been through since we were born. It is the storage facility of our consciousness. The subconscious never forgets (unless it is overwritten), and it is the storehouse of memory. The things we attract in our life is the thought contents that are still operating on this sub-level of our mind. Our life is our subconscious mind pushed out, or projected outwards. Our task then, to be creators who shape our own destiny, is to find effective ways to influence our subconscious.

The subconscious, although powerful, intelligent and vast, is the feminine aspect of our mind. It is submissive to command of our conscious mind. Our conscious mind or logical mind, is the decision maker. But too often we go in life confused because we are influenced by the limitations reported to us by our 5 senses. We become reliant on facts. We see limitations and obstructions. If we are unaware of the unlimited powers and capabilities of our subconscious mind, we will not be open to the possibilities that outside the knowing of our limited 5 senses.

Our 5 senses are confined by space and time. We cannot see, hear, smell, touch, taste anything that is outside of this present moment. Our conscious mind knows only the information that it has gained from the 5 senses in the past and present. Anything outside of that is not accessible by the conscious mind. The task we should ideally give to our conscious mind is the part of the decision maker. “What do you want?”

But how do we get to the destination? How do we achieve the goal we have set? If the steps are clearly known and logical, then the task can be taken up by our conscious mind. But most of our goals are so far fetched from our current limited view, that it becomes an overwhelming task of bring the right target, the right place, the right person, the right event, right timing – all of these need to be synchronized to open up the doorway to the fulfillment of your goal. That big task can never be organized by your conscious mind. You have to leave it to your subconscious.

For those who have not yet learned to focus their thoughts and attention, or to meditate, the convenient way to influence your subconscious is right before you sleep at night. By impressing your subconscious with your goal and target, you are give it 6 to 8 hours to work on your goal without the interruptions and doubts from your conscious mind. While you sleep, your conscious mind is in a state of rest. Very often, one good sign that your subconscious is working on a goal is when you start to dream about your goal. If in your night dreams you find yourself in the achievement of your goal, it is often a very good indicator. For example, in 2005  I wanted to get an apartment in the city center right in the heart of Sydney. I did my mental work and one month later, one morning I had a dream that I was living in a different apartment, with long narrow entry and cream coloured walls. That day in the afternoon, through a series of coincidences and what you would call ‘fate’, I found an apartment with all the characteristics I wanted – right in the city center, high level with terrific views of the city and water and lower than market rent. Most amazingly, when I stepped into the apartment, as I looked back to the entry door that I just came in, it was the exact scene I saw in my dream that morning – an entry door at the end of a narrow hallway, with cream coloured walls.

One day, Mark Twain was searching in his house trying to find a newspaper article about him from a certain date. He needed them as reference for an article he was writing but he couldn’t find them. His desire for them was so great that he unconsciously summoned his inner mind to find them for him.

A few weeks passed, and one day he was walking down a busy street in the city, when someone emerged from the busy street crowd and called out, “Mr. Clemens!” (Mark Twain’s real name was Samuel Clemens).

“Mr. Clemens! I’m so glad to find you here! I am a great fan of yours and I’ve been collecting every newspaper articles about you for many years. And this morning, while in my house I had a feeling to give you some of these clippings. I was going to go to your house, and it’s such a coincidence to see you here! Now I can just give you these!”

He put the newspaper clippings into Mark Twain’s hand. Before Mark Twain could say anything more, the man shook his hand, walked away and disappeared into the crowd. When Mark Twain went home to inspect the clippings, he found that one of them was the very newspaper article that he had wanted so urgently weeks ago! That is a clear demonstration of the law of attraction and synchronicity. Mark Twain’s location was synchronized with that of his fan who had possession of the very articles he wanted and the man was mentally motivated to give it to Mark Twain. In reality, Mark Twain’s strong desire and intention had influenced the person who could fulfill his desire.

How often do you evaluate your belief systems and habits to see if they are serving you or obstructing you? Very often, a mental clean house is all you need to make a change in your life.

Perhaps you could decide to radically change your thoughts and beliefs, go on a mental diet and see what radical change you can create in your life? Give yourself the gift of a change.

Just a simple change in your daily habits can add up to become a powerful force that changes your life. Think, if you improve just 5% each week in any area of your life –  your health, mindset, career, time management, finances etc., what will the accumulated change add up to over the course of 3 months, 6 months, 1 year? You could make tremendous changes in your life towards the direction you want.

If you decide to stop spending 3 hours watching tv every night after work, and spend the time doing something else such as read self-improvement books, think how many books could you read in 1 month? Perhaps 5 or 10? I usually read at least 5 books each month, and that is on a slow month while I’m working on another project. How about spend time learning a new skill such as how to invest, or how to build a business, or how to improve your health? See, we have to take time to evaluate how we are spending the time in our life away. Do you want to count how many sitcoms and tv dramas and movies you’ve watched and how many hours you’ve wasted sitting in front of the box? That is exactly how many precious hours and days in your life that you could have used to do something or learn something useful. Time is an investment for a greater gain, or else it is poured down the drain for nothing in return. The choice is always in our hands.

We all need to write down on a piece of paper, the benefits of the new habit we’re planning, and the disadvantage of the old habit we’re trying to stop. This is the first and very important step. Without it your mind is unable to see the long term gain or loss of each habit. Without a clear goal and clear reasons, the mind finds it hard to make a decision. The most successful change is always followed by a strong “why” to back it up.

You have heard about the Law of Attraction. It not only works on the level of your thoughts. But it also response to your actions too, because your actions is a declaration of your thought and decision. It is a reflection of what’s in your mind. Faith without action, is dead. A very powerful thing to do to activate the Law of Attraction is to decide something and then follow thru with an action to symbolise your faith.

Stop and think for a moment, imagine the distant future. Imagine you’re 60 or 70 years old reflecting back on your life. How would you wish to have lived differently? When you come back to the present, realise that the choice is yours now. Only you have the power to change yourself.

Today I will talk mainly about changing our habits. I will be posting a follow up about changing beliefs and mindsets soon.

After a stressful and hectic week, I had a bad case of flu over the easter weekend. Spent the weekend in bed drifting in and out of sleep. My body was tired, but my mind had enough rest. So as I drifted in and out of sleep, I was in a state of reverie.

I recall this happened in one of them. I was in the great stillness in my mind, and suddenly bright multicoloured light energy balls appeared in the scene. In curiosity I reached out to one of them. As I touched that energy ball, a past event in my life flashed before my mind. Instantly the whole event and its effects on my thoughts, feelings, psychology, beliefs all replayed itself- the event and my reactions to the event flashed in my consciousness in its entirety in an instant. As I pulled myself back and disassociated myself from it, I could see many floating luminous light balls of thought. Touching another thought ball lightly accessed another memory.

It is then I understand these are the thought balls that the author Robert Monroe (the author of Out of Body Experience and Far Journeys) talked about. He called them ROTE (thought ball/thought energy/a packet of thought/total memory/information ball).

The next thought ball that I touched opened up a memory from many years ago, and the memory was one that I wished I could have elicited very different actions from me. But this time as the event replayed itself in my mind, I was actually there. I was in the thought ball reality as if it was happening. This time I changed my action to one that satisfied me. I changed it. As I got out of it it felt different. The event had changed. And I suddenly awoke.

The concept of ‘faith’ is repeated over and over by mystics, metaphysicians and teachers of success. In the bible it is said faith is the substance of things hoped for. Jesus stressed the importance of faith of those who wished to be healed. By their faith they are made whole.

Faith is a belief that what you are praying for is coming true. Faith is a knowing that is is done. When you reach a state of mind called faith, a few things happen.

Firstly, you cease to doubt. Doubt in the ancient days is personified by Satan. Satan is the Doubter, while the Savior or God is Faith. If you want to achieve something and you begin to doubt, you are neutralising the progress you have made and neutralising your positive thoughts. Doubt demagnetises what you want. The mystics said “Let not the double minded man think he can receive anything from God”. This is so because the double minded man is self defeating. His negative thought neutralises his positive thought, and he does not reach his destination.

Secondly, when you have faith, you cease to wonder how or when it will be achieved. From our Conscious perspective, asking how and when means “I haven’t got it”. One rule about manifesting work is this : Do not outline how it is to be achieved. The parameters of the thought processes of Infinite Mind (Universal Mind) is out of the scope of our limited conscious mind. From our Conscious perspective, all we see is evidences of the known – what we can detect with our physical senses. But to Infinite Mind, when you have faith that a thing is so, the opportunities necessary to accomplish it is created. The right people, right timing, right event is orchestrated in Space and Time in perfect order to manifest your faith. Yes, faith is a substance, and it is manifested as result.

Faith requires persistence. It requires the emotion of certainty. But the biggest foundation stone of faith is knowledge and understanding how mind creates reality. When you understand it, you know it is a law that your thought creates, just as sure as the law of gravity pulls things towards the earth. God is love, but God is first and foremost Law and Principles.

To understand the spiritual mindsets that create what you want, refer to my new book The 10 Spiritual Wisdoms To Create Your Personal Reality: Powerful Mindsets To Manifest and Fulfill Your Dreams.
