What is the subconscious?
For most of us, our subconscious, depending on its composition and quality, decides the circumstances in which we live our lives. Our subconscious mind can be our best friend and our worst enemy.
It is vital to our work to gain a full understanding of the structure of our subconscious, along with developing the tools to clear and purify this “jungle within”.
The subconscious, located primarily in the solar plexus area, is divided into three chambers. The size of each room varies according to the psycho-mental development of the person.
A chamber is the repository of vital energy (etheric energy). Another chamber, so often a dense jungle, is the body of elementals that we generate and regenerate in our personality. The third chamber is the seat of the Spirit-Soul, which includes our ability to act most quickly and wisely when emergencies arise. Moreover, from this room, each of us intuitively knows the value of goodness and has the ability to discriminate between good and evil.
What is Intuition?
Intuition is the power of attaining direct knowledge without rational thought and inference, knowledge that is not formed because of known facts or evidence.
What conscious effort could not do can be successfully performed by the mysterious movement of the deeper layer of mind (see Subconscious).
An important point about intuition is that it does not arise deliberately but spontaneously, not voluntarily but involuntarily.
Intuition seldom occurs in a pure form but almost always in association with desires, emotions, and egoisms, which blur its message.
It is interesting to note that intuition is at its soundest when it takes a negative rather than a positive direction. It speaks to us mostly to forbid a certain course of proposed action, not to recommend one. Its voice is usually a warning one.
