The Power of your Sub-Conscious Mind

[Ramai]

This is an excerpt from the book The Power of your Sub-Conscious Mind by Joseph Murphy.

1. Think good, and good follows. Think evil, and evil follows. You are what you think all day long.
2. Your subconscious mind does not argue with you. It accepts what your conscious mind decrees. If you say, “I can’t afford it,” it may be true, but do not say it. Select a better thought, decree, “I’ll buy it. I accept it in my mind.”
3. You have the power to choose. Choose health and happiness. You can choose to be friendly, or you can choose to be unfriendly. Choose to be cooperative, joyous, friendly,lovable, and the whole world will respond. This is the best way to develop a wonderful personality.
4. Your conscious mind is the “watchman at the gate.” Its chief function is to protect your subconscious mind from false impressions. Choose to believe that something good can happen and is happening now. Your greatest power is your capacity to choose. Choose happiness and abundance.
5. The suggestions and statements of others have no power to hurt you. The only power is the movement of your own thought. You can choose to reject the thoughts or statements of others and affirm the good. You have the power to choose how you will react.
6. Watch what you say. You have to account for every idle word. Never say, “I will fail; I will lose my job; I can’t pay the rent.” Your subconscious cannot take a joke. It brings all these things to pass.
7. Your mind is not evil. No force of nature is evil. It depends how you use the powers of nature. Use your mind to bless, heal, and inspire all people everywhere.
8. Never say, “I can’t.” Overcome that fear by substituting the following, “I can do all things through the power of my own subconscious mind.”
9. Begin to think from the standpoint of the eternal truths and principles of life and not from the standpoint of fear, ignorance, and superstition. Do not let others do your thinking for you. Choose your own thoughts and make your own decisions.
10. You are the captain of your soul (subconscious mind) and the master of your fate.
Remember, you have the capacity to choose. Choose life! Choose love! Choose health!
Choose happiness!
11. Whatever your conscious mind assumes and believes to be true, your subconscious mind will accept and bring to pass. Believe in good fortune, divine guidance, right action, and all the blessings of life.

Hi Ramai,

Isn't it interesting how words like subconscious could easily be replaced by other words depending on the path one chooses?

For example Matthew 6.33 in essence says that if you set your mind on the kingdom (which I interpret as the Silence) before everything else and all else will be given to you.

The fact that we are in our most real being through persistent meditation practice rooted in the silence at our very core seems for many the most elusive truth of our life. The problem usually is distractedness and our possessiveness.

My overwheming sense on this journey however is that the Spirit waits patiently for each of us in its own eternal stillness. Our pilgrimage of meditation teaches us that in spirit and truth we are there already.

Our awakening to this reality is the expansion of our spirit. With expansion comes liberty, the liberty of spirit that pushes forward the range of my limited consciousness.

I have come to know that this knowledge is not theory or speculation but contact with the most immediate and personal reality. In my experience, we are not meditating long before our eyes begin to open upon epiphanies of love in our life that before we were too short-sighted to perceive or not generous enough to receive.

Once this realisation arises, this seems to open a door to abundance.

Nothing but the best...

Hi Olmate,

One might answer that it does not matter which path one chooses; - as they all start, point and eventually end in the same place anyway. IMO, it seems to matter only which reality we chose to live, from above (conscious) or below (subconscious).

In meditation I felt a loving peace that was “out of this world”. I was visualising sending peace from the core of my being, when the Source gave me a glimpse of itself. It felt as if The Source was showing me (teaching me?) what divine peace feels like in comparison to my perception of peace, you could say “shown to know”.

Love,
Ramai

Its true.

I think about it as a vibration that everyone has, and which influences other vibrations. If im happy (lets say vibration "a") and someone is mad and yelling at me (vibration "b") then id normaly get into his vibrational state, but if im aware of it, i can choose. As most people share the same vibration, its sometimes hard to keep ones own vibration, but its always our most inner choice. Like attracts like, so its a good idea to think about the vibration we want to live with...
