Unconscious Mind Quotes

“Delve into the unconscious, to learn the codes inside the unconscious, to discover what are its views of reality. No amount of conscious desire for something can overcome an unconscious belief that if you had that thing, it would destroy you. Think of your father who implied that he would not accept a son who earned more money than he did. You might remember the time you had a nervous breakdown when your first love broke up with you. Or was it when you got into a schoolyard brawl and realized at some level that you wanted that kid dead, perhaps as you pummeled him into unconsciousness? Or perhaps what occurred was much more subtle during the early years of your adolescences, as you very deeply inside began to have sexual feelings for your sister and became disgusted with your body and sex in general. Gradually de-layer the unconscious beliefs that reside silently, but deadly, in your unconscious. In trying to help you to survive, the unconscious could be in fact destroying you. Recall again the diagram of the iceberg in this book; how meditating on it reveals that the world is, in reality, made up of almost seven billion unconscious minds interacting with one another.”

“The ultimate barometer for what’s actually going on inside you is to reverse engineer your unconscious intentions by the RESULTS you consistently keep getting and the current state of your life – not by what you consistently keep telling yourself.”

“When you don’t trust life and so you start testing it and looking for signs, then you’re not really testing life (because the truth can’t be tested – it just is) – you’re just testing your own ability to be selective with your attention and to tell your unconscious mind to keep a look out for things that could potentially mean something (based on your own criteria of what’s ‘meaningful’ which is almost based on your relationship between your ego and your shadow).”

“They say that the personal transformation that gives rise to self-realization – the transcendent function that leads to the highest echelon of human attainment – takes place on the border between consciousness and unconsciousness, and that when we dream we dissolve the boundary between consciousness and unconsciousness. In other words, we dream a world into being, and we are the collective product of our lifetime of immanent dreams. If the oracles are correct, I dreamed you into being, and you represent the real point of intersection between dream and reality.”

“The conscious mind and the unconscious mind jointly govern human beings’ desires, thoughts, and behavior, which unified totally in a singular human body houses what we term the self. The conscious mind frequently assist facilitate the agenda of the unconscious mind. Incompatible cravings of the conscious and unconscious mind generate tension and emotional turmoil, which can manifest itself in erratic behavior that produces self-doubt and self-questioning. One of the main conundrums of human beings is that the unconscious mind, which guides important aspects of human behavior and motivation, is virtually unknowable. The power of conscious thought – the ability to rationalize – misleads us into thinking we are primary logical entities, when we live most of our lives by unconsciously scanning external stimuli and reacting to events in real time without conscious reflection.”

“Our conscious self is what we admit to being. Our unconscious shadow is the part of us that we attempt to suppress, the part of us that our family, friends, employers, coworkers, associates, clients, neighbors, and society tells us to discard. Our shadow emerges from the unspeakable things that we discover about the world and ourselves. Both the magnificent as well as the bizarre residue of prior experiences lies buried and unconfessed in the fissures of our unconscious mind. The less a person’s shadow is embodied in a person’s conscious life, the blacker and denser it is.”

“The world is full of lots of people play acting and hurling stuff about, unconscious of the effects. And there are large group karmic things going on through history that none of us should ever take personally. Rushing about trying to rectify the sins of the past is not productive. The best you can do is to be present as the new you in the now, holding your light as a steady candle to add to the beam of calm and love now spreading to help wake more and more people up. Hopefully we will evolve as a species to eventually cease the unnecessary conflict between different groups of ourselves.”

“And then it struck him what lay buried far down under the earth on which his feet were so firmly planted: the ominous rumbling of the deepest darkness, secret rivers that transported desire, slimy creatures writhing, the lair of earthquakes ready to transform whole cities into mounds of rubble. These, too, were helping to create the rhythm of the earth. He stopped dancing and, catching his breath, stared at the ground beneath his feet as though peering into a bottomless hole.”

“The reason you might not be creating the life you want is that you are making most of your decisions unconsciously, and most of your subconscious policies (programs and rules) are fear-based and inaccurate. These inaccurate policies are sabotaging your success, because they don’t want the very things you think you consciously want.”

“Писатель Джулиан Дюгид описывает процедуру, предложенную ему человеком, с которым он познакомился на борту корабля: «— Вы хотите писать рассказы? — спросил он. — Нет ничего легче. Ваш инстинктивный разум помнит каждое событие, когда-либо происходившее с вами... Он сам создаст из ваших переживаний сюжет. Вам нужно лишь потереть лампу. — А техника этого? — спросил я. — Наш инстинктивный разум никогда не спит. Это только высшие уровни мозга отключаются, когда мы ложимся спать. Вы достаточно легко можете проверить это на себе. — Звучит интересно. Что я должен сделать? — Это действительно интересно. Перед тем как отключиться, просто сообщите своему подсознанию, чего вы хотите. Наутро рассказ будет готов... Кстати, — сказал он чуть погодя, — здесь нечего бояться... Раб лампы — ваш слуга... И было бы неплохо звать его по имени. Я решил, что буду звать этого незнакомца, таящегося внутри меня, Помощником». Дюгид «Меня убедили», 1941”

“Los dos efectos más importantes que tienen las hazañas y las anti-hazañas es que afectan dos cosas 1) el orgullo 2) el prestigio social. Por ello, por deducción, podemos predecir 2 grandes clases de mentiras relacionadas con hazañas y anti-hazañas: 1) Mentiras para proteger prestigio social o aprobación externa. ¿Esto existe? Sí, se puede comprobar a simple vista. El pescador que vuelve del lago, agranda el tamaño del pescado que dice que pescó (hazaña, agranda su hazaña) para aumentar su prestigio. El nene que vuelve del colegio esconde su boletín con baja nota avergonzado (anti-hazaña) lo esconde, y miente, para proteger su imagen. Son las mentiras “al otro” para que no vea nuestra anti-hazaña, y proteger el prestigio social o la aprobación, o mentiras para exagerar o inventar hazañas. 2) Mentiras para proteger el Orgullo. Esto ya es un poco complicado, pero al ver que es cierto lo anterior, se deduce que también tienen que existir mentiras para proteger nuestro orgullo. Estas mentiras son sobre toda clase de anti-hazañas como anti-hazañas externas. Por ejemplo, el jugador de tenis arrogante “ve” que la pelota pico en el fleje, pero como eso afecta su orgullo ya que no la pudo atajar (anti-hazaña), se engaña y “ve” que picó afuera del fleje y realmente cree que fue mala. Sería el caso de auto-engaño para no ver una circunstancia externa. Sin embargo, a veces la anti-hazaña, puede ser un sentimiento, una emoción, o un deseo, un recuerdo. Es decir: la anti-hazaña es una experiencia interna. Un ejemplo puede ser un deseo homosexual que en nuestro M.A.S. se considera anti-hazaña y tal vez en el M.A.P. de la persona también. Entonces puede esconderse de la mirada de los demás (mentira para proteger el prestigio) o esconderse de la propia mirada (mentira para proteger el orgullo). Este tipo de anti-hazañas internas abarcan deseos, recuerdos de experiencias q y otras sensaciones, y precisamente este territorio es el inconsciente freudiano. En la época de moral victoriana de Freud el deseo sexual fuera de los preceptos morales era gran anti-hazaña según el M.A.S. Por ende, es posible imaginar inicialmente el inconsciente como poblado por deseos prohibidos. Pero en nuestra época otras son las anti-hazañas internas como por ejemplo “el no placer” (las mujeres deben disfrutar el sexo), o por ejemplo el sufrimiento (parece que fuera una vergüenza sufrir), o también algunos recuerdos o experiencias. La técnica del psiconálisis, mediante la asociación libre, puede reconciliar a la persona con esas anti-hazañas internas.”

“Build pockets of stillness into your life. Meditate. Go for walks. Ride your bike going nowhere in particular. There is a creative purpose to daydreaming, even to boredom. The best ideas come to us when we stop actively trying to coax the muse into manifesting and let the fragments of experience float around our unconscious mind in order to click into new combinations. Without this essential stage of unconscious processing, the entire flow of the creative process is broken.”

“It is as if the formation of patterns within the unconscious mind is accompanied by physical patterns in the outer world. In particular, as psychic patterns are on the point of reaching consciousness, the synchronicities reach their peak; moreover, they generally disappear as the individual becomes consciously aware of a new alignment of forces within his or her own personality...It is as if the internal restructuring produces external resonance, or as if a burst of 'mental energy' is propagated outward onto the world.”

“I know playwrights who like to kid themselves into saying that their characters are so well formed that they just take over. They determine the structure of the play. By which is meant, I suspect, only that the unconscious mind has done its work so thoroughly that the play just has to be filtered through the conscious mind. But there's work to be done - and discovery to be made.”
