Who are we?

To understand the power of the super-conscious mind and how it can lead us to a higher level, we need to understand the various dimensions of our composition. We have a physical body, a mind, a spiritual connection and emotions. For our overall wellbeing, all of the above has to be in a healthy state.

A thought in our mind is the beginning for us to have a feeling of hatred, anger, jealousy, love, compassion and so on. This thought is fuelled by emotions. The stronger the emotion we get, the heavier our feelings we will have. These emotions are the necessity force for us to fall in love, attack an enemy, start a business or do any other action.

May be some of our thoughts are coming from our conscious mind. But very often we get ideas when we are at sleep or in a relax state consciously not thinking about it. Suppose you might have lost your keys. While thinking about something else, you may have got the idea where you lost your keys. So at-least partially we are getting ideas from our sub-conscious mind.  

Now where are we getting our emotions? If we focus on the news, movies, or the common behaviour of the mass, we may get the feelings of anger, jealously, love and so on. So the external sources can have influence in our emotions.  But most of those emotions are just temporary.

If we focus within our self to do something great, we will get the emotion of compassion, love and thrive to do something good to the humanity. In this case, and in many other scenarios the emotions are coming from our sub-conscious mind.

For us to take actions to do something great we need a strong feelings to do so. The sub-conscious mind has a big role in this.

At times when we feel the things are out of our ability, we look forward to a higher source called God to guide us. At times, the thoughts and emotions we get are beyond our own experience stored in our sub-conscious mind. You did not train your subconscious mind to fall in love. You would have not fallen in love until you met that right person. So where the subconscious mind got the idea to flirt with her/him? It has to be knowledge beyond you. That’s where the connection to our super-conscious mind or the spiritual connection giving you the necessary feelings strong enough for you to take actions. This falling in love with a person is just one example. If you think of it, you would have got many other ideas beyond your knowledge to do something great.

To get the connection to your super-conscious mind work in your favour, meditation can play a constructive role. But can we just sit in one place and meditate to achieve all what we want? Not really. In the end we have to take actions to gain what we want. The bigger our goal is, the bigger the action we need to take.  Thru meditation, our mind will give us the thoughts, emotions and feelings for us to take the necessary actions to achieve what we want. At times it will be so strong that you cannot avoid taking the necessary action.

Chronological Age

Our physical body is continuously growing. Our skin is replaced with new one every few weeks. Most of our internal organs are replaced with new organs every few months. Overall, most of our whole body is replaced with new cells every 10 years. So the oldest person you ever met is physically only 10 years old.

The chronological age is the number of years from your date of birth. This cannot be changed. But this is of very little importance for our wellbeing and happiness.

As we get older, most of us think we cannot learn new tricks. There are many people who fear old age and are uncertain about the future, because they anticipate mental and physical deterioration as the years advance.

But that is only our perception. There are many who have done great achievement during their 70s, 80s and older.

• Marcus Porcius Cato, the Roman patriot, learned Greek at 80.
• Madame Ernestine Schumann-Heink, the great German American contralto, reached the pinnacle of her musical success after she became a grandmother.
• The Greek philosopher Socrates, learned to play musical instruments when he was 80 years old.

The above are just a few examples out of thousands or even millions of successful people. So the chronological age really does not matter.

Bialogical Age

Your “Body Mass Index (BMI)”, blood pressure, vision and hearing capacity and other measurements are used to calculate your biological age. This age indicates how well your body is functioning in comparison to most others of your same gender, ethnicity and your society. Healthy food and regular exercise is important for a healthy biological age.

This is more important than the chronological age.  But people of less than perfect health also have achieved greater success.

Mental Age

This is the age your mind truly feels like. Understanding how the sub-conscious and super-conscious mind works will make you realize that your mental age can even get younger. Thru the mind power, we can even get biologically younger.

Mind, Emotions and Spiritual Connection

What mostly important in the composition of who we are our mind, emotions and the spiritual connection. So we are a spiritual being. We are in this body to experience life. So enjoy every single day feeling young for ever.
