The Nature of Mind

What follows is the channeling of possibility, a realm of understanding that is beyond what science or biology can offer from the limited stance of defined "fact". The information I offer is what I have come to realize through contemplative meditation, relation to the processes of Nature, and research into the scientific, spiritual, and biological works of others. We can dive into possibility and see what feels right, yet there will always be mystery enshrouding the Absolute truth of the minds workings. For this is how creation works, we leave just out of reach the realms of which comprehension would result in separation from the reality we share. My only hope is that those who would seek so find a resonance within that sparks a curiosity about life and It's fantastical workings, that we may share this endeavor of life as a mystical and perfect process.

The Mind is Nature's greatest gift to It's Self, a point of expansion where creation has found the ability to become Self-realized. By "Self" I am referring to the world of experience, the content of life of which we observe and interact with beyond Being. Through the growth and resolution of an individuals mind we become a point of reference for all else external while also solidifying out own position within creation. We become Nature awakened within Nature, a catalyst for the highest potentials to be realized.
As all else in life, the mind is made of divisions within divisions. None are any more important to recognize and develop as the next beyond that which is for the individual more relevant. We have Unconscious, Subconscious, and conscious Mind, of which our state of Being is decided. Then there is Ego, ID, and Super-ego, the parts of mind of which our interaction with the external is decided. Each of these qualities and realms of awareness are unique and vital to the rest, the structure of the mind is truly an immaculate one.
Let us take each of these six aspects and briefly delve into comprehension of the possibilities. As I normally suggest, Truth can only come from within the individual, and so it is for your own point of observation and interaction that the following can contain importance, relevance, or realization. What is true for me may be quite different for another, and although there appears to be certain Absolutes we can agree to share at the depths of introspection, even there do we find difference in application and meaning.
The unconscious mind has to do with the structure of reality, and very much so the shared reality. The world where each person interacts and leaves an energetic imprint for the rest to observe is the space of the unconscious. Now, we normally refer to "unconsciousness" as when there is a lack of awareness, and this can also be true. Yet when we use the term in this way we are talking about action as a result of subconscious process. We enter a space of which comprehension escapes us, of which awareness has little to do with what we are creating or observing.
Unconsciousness in the mind represents a space of which intuition is drawn from beyond our own conscious reason. This can mean that we are reacting to emotional data without applying rationality, this can also mean, very simply, that we are not aware, that we are driven by an underlaying program. This program lay in the subconscious, yet holds roots in our deeper reality independent of choice.
Perhaps unconsciousness is the most difficult to put into definition, as inherently such is without definition. The dark space of the mind, that which the light of consciousness must trickle from the subconscious inwards. The deepest reaches of mind, where the fabric of existence is integrated into Being, where the integral structure of Being rests.

The subconscious is a whole different story, the subconscious programs the unconscious as an intermediary for what we can acknowledge in our own active thought. This is where most of the magic happens, at least the magic that enables us to experience the unconscious structure through the portal of consciousness. We are not talking semantics, we are actually referring to depths of mind to which the Entity of consciousness experiences life. There are many ways to comprehend each level, yet only the subconscious realm can act as a platform for our travel into the depths of the unknown.
As children we are driven by unconscious process to program the subconscious, to create our minds layout, the ego, super-ego, and ID as we mentioned before. While the unconscious is the raw materials of a city, the subconscious is the content which fills such, the streets, buildings, parks and places of our life. We can repave, remove, or build new roads entirely, but the unconscious Earth still remains the platform to build such upon. So we begin to see through relation how the mind functions.
In this way consciousness is not only the great "I Am", the spark of awareness that observes what the Being creates, but also the active force of which all other levels of mind are tuned and aligned. The subconscious is the space of which the arrangement occurs, where we can apply the light of consciousness, the truth of which we have abstracted feeling from logical comprehension, and can therefore apply our free will.

Free will is not an illusion, although on most all dimensions of such we experience it as such. Emotional data wells up from the subconscious, through the checking upon experience, or the programs provided by an individuals life experience, and is then brought into the heights of which thought can access such. This can be an unconscious stream of thought of course, where we are simply relaying data as such is processed, without even a moment of direct interaction.
A state of intentional existence, where we directly apply a foundation of conscious truth to the subconscious, there by offering a new structure for the unconscious to integrate, is by no means an simple or easy place to reach. Free will is available to everyone, yet the content of our lives, the infinite information of the DNA and the bloodline that has developed such is pervasive. It is the light of awareness, the breaking down of structures which do not serve, that allow us to apprehend and apply this force.
We have safely hidden free will behind a perfect program of Nature. The design of which brings us to the path of which choice becomes an active factor. We must reach this passage, we must be given this opportunity. Wether or not we can abstract enough from the subconscious into the present moment and into our awareness to illuminate this potential is a matter of the individuals process, or karmic path.
Do not resign that the path of which You walk is that of unconsciousness, that of a perilous and inevitable reality. The recognition that what is created is a result of all else is the major portal for entering into a fully conscious realm. Only a sliver of acknowledgement is needed to break the thin yet pervasive layer of which free will rests behind destiny. For it is our charge as the living consciousness of Nature to transcend the original design, and become Ultimate creators within creation.

At this point the ego-super-ego, and ID comes in, the three depths of interaction. The resolution of these qualities of mind are what determines the amplitude of an individuals will. When I say amplitude I am truly speaking of vibration, for all is a spectrum of vibration, where consciousness and life can be related to the workings of sound.
The mind can be appear feeble and only slightly intriguing when we only consider such as a biological component, a limited, finite bit of matter. When we recognize that the sensory data of Being is interpreted on an incredibly deep level, that of which a matrix of vibration is transformed into physical reality, and such is not just an arbitrary thing we call "energy", we open up the possibility for amazing leaps in awareness and comprehension. The idea of energy can expand into an incredible array of potentials, or we could simplify such into just electrical charges, whereas no justice is done to the apparent truth.
As everything else in life, the three qualities of which our Being is integrated into life can be resolved into a high vibrational state. We will get into these in another blog, for we have traveled far and wide already, and there is much to consider. Possibility has become our ally, we have considered the unknown on a scale to which we are normally not offered.
Through this work we can find that the unconscious is not a bad thing, nor is such just a state of Being. The unconscious is a depth to which the immaculate structure of connectivity, of our shared reality, is enabled to be. When we do not apply consciousness, and instead simply react to what is happening, we are following the design of Nature, and we cannot falter. As we find the lessons do not come as easy in this way, they come direct and sometimes with great repercussions. Yet one way or another the unconscious mind will bring us to the path of free will, we need only to recognize this and actively choose to ignite a fire that has smoldered within as potential.
The subconscious has become the layout for how we rewrite the story of life. Our chemistry set, our city, our playground for unfolding the potentials of consciousness. We need nothing, and yet if we are inspired to do so we can radically shift existence through conscious interaction with the subconscious.
Consciousness, oh beautiful Entity of existence, how great you are. Magnificent and infinite child of Creation, eternal flame of the Divine...what will you create? Thank you for choosing to be born into a body, for choosing to illuminate life with your radiance. Thank you for Being, for reading this blog, and considering possibility, for we are each a drop in the ocean of the all, and yet as we are inseparable from the ocean, we are also this vast well of Creation.

Blessed Be,
Nathan
