Does Mind Really Exist?

Does Mind Really Exist?

In Psychology, we have learned about Conscious mind, Sub Conscious mind and Un-Conscious mind.

When thoughts are created by Consciousness using intellect, we call it as mind.

In fact, there is nothing called as mind which exists as a separate entity. We fight against a non-existing mind which is just a shadow of our own Consciousness. It is said, it is difficult to control mind because you cannot win a fight with your own shadow. If you want to control your shadow, you have to control yourself. We cannot win over the non-existing mind.

The Creator, Controller and the user of thoughts is Me, the Consciousness through the intellect.

One is to be Self Aware or Self Conscious and then create thoughts. Another is to become careless and keep creating thoughts without any attention or conscious control.

Our thoughts are subtle energies. If we use it consciously through our Intellect, our every thought becomes useful and beneficial. And it saves our more subtle energy known as spiritual energy. It also reduces the chemical reactions that take place in our brain and body.

If we keep creating thoughts without our conscious control, then those thoughts are called as waste thoughts, un-necessary and unproductive thoughts. It consumes our precious Life Energy leading to many neurotic disorders like anxiety, fear, depression and becomes one of the cause for stress related  Non-Communicable diseases like Hyper Tension, Stroke, Heart Diseases, Cancer, Diabetes and addictions combined with Unhealthy Life style.

Q n A:

What is the power of Sub Conscious mind?

Habits are created by repetition of thoughts using affirmations or by behavior like learning driving. It stores information in our long term memory known as subconscious or unconscious mind. It is a process of creating new neural pathways in our brain, something like programming a Robot or a Computer. Most of our instinctual behaviors like fight and flight responses take place from this level of memory.

But being a human being we should learn to unleash the power of self-Consciousness and live more consciously in our day to day life, if we have to lead a happy, healthy and blissful life.
