BRIDGE TO HIGHER CONSCIOUSNESS
The fact that we’re conscious is obvious. But what may not be so obvious is how our consciousness works and how to make the best use of it.
Consciousness is more than the mind. It’s an intelligence taking place at every level of our being, from the quantum (subatomic) level to the cellular, culminating in the brain. The brain is the control center of consciousness; it produces the inner activity we experience as a thinking mind.
The experience of thinking is what gives us our sense of being a conscious person in control of our actions -- as we act out our thoughts, we take ownership of them even though we often don’t consciously formulate or choose them. Most of our thoughts arise spontaneously from our subconscious, triggered by beliefs, mindsets, and fractured parts of ourselves (sub-personalities), each having its own cause and ‘will’ (sub-will).
When triggered, these elements of our subconscious automatically spring into action and shape our behavior. To take true control, we need to become very mindful and observe ourselves with detachment. As we do this, we bring into focus a higher level of self and mind -- a Master Mind Self.
At a Master Mind level of Self, we may truly take responsibility for our actions and choose which thoughts (or feelings) to follow. We could also choose to focus at other higher ‘channels’ of mind -- i.e., intuition, prayer, meditation, and divine union; all lead us to ‘miraculous’ outcomes when entered authentically.
Thus, detachment is the bridge that takes us from a lower, automatic functioning mind to a higher, Masterfully functioning mind. Ironically, it’s through detachment that we gain our greatest creative power and connection with life.
