"No-one can heal another. ALL healing is an inside
job. To heal, one must first search within the mind and the spirit for
the origin and the causes of the undesired condition.” Hugh Harmon, Ph.D.
"There are many pathways to enlightenment. One must
know how to get out of one’s own way to walk a path long enough to discover
its truths. To do this, one must know Self. To know Self, one must know
mind and spirit.” Pamela Chilton, C.Ht.
LEVELS OF
MIND
(AS PRESENTLY
UNDERSTOOD )
Mind is the “servant” of spirit.
Mind carries out the will of spirit.
Mind is the “builder” of spirit. Mind manifests the creations of
spirit. Mind “houses” spirit. There is only one spirit, but the mind divides
and separates spirit - as directed by spirit - into levels of spirit within
the mind.
CONSCIOUS MIND
Sets goals. Wills action.
Beliefs at this level are not fixed, but change continually. Directs and
programs the subconscious through its will. Is “outwardly focused” - focused
on physical reality - in “normal” states of consciousness. Is “inwardly
focused” - focused on the non-physical realities of the mental and spiritual
realms - in “altered” states of consciousness, The degree to which the
conscious mind “lets go” of its focus on the “outer world” of physical
form affects the depth of “altered” states of consciousness. Merges completely
with the subconscious in unconscious states such as sleep, death, out
of body experiences, and unconscious trance states. Is the “seat” of the
lower self. (See Levels of Spirit.)
SUBCONSCIOUS MIND
Acts upon and carries out
the goals and actions willed by the conscious mind without question
if there are not other directives blocking this. Will accept the directives
of others if these suggestions are not blocked by the conscious mind or
its own prior programming. Beliefs at this level are “fixed” as clusters
or patterns of linked thoughts that ensure “automatic” responses to specific
stimuli or “triggers”. This is important to its job of directing and regulating
the body and its energies, which must be kept functioning regardless of
changing situations. As circumstances change, a different pattern of thought
is triggered and an automatic response to that pattern is carried out.
This is a time tested survival mechanism strongly protected by the subconscious.
This mechanism of fixed beliefs are responsible for habitual conduct and
addictive behaviors. Directs all the functions and processes of the body
and the brain. Records experiences and stores these as memory in its memory
banks as well as “hard-wires” certain memories into the brain and body.
Is the “gatekeeper” of all the energies - physical, mental, emotional,
and spiritual. Translates the language of the mind and spirit - symbols
- into the word language(s) spoken by the conscious mind. Will act upon
opposing directives if there is no directive blocking this. Examples of
this are: The conscious mind expressing doubt or disbelief that what it
wants can or will manifest. One or more levels of the conscious mind not
wanting what another level wants. Cell consciousness is part of the subconscious
mind. Majority of social programming and programs of self-esteem are,
in most cases, set by the time a child is age seven. Thoughts and beliefs
held while in the womb, during birth, and early childhood set this programming
as do the thoughts, beliefs, words, and actions of caretakers, peers,
and authority figures. The subconscious mind does not change its programming
unless directed to do so by the conscious mind of self or another. Such
changes are difficult to impossible to alter in “normal” states of consciousness;
i.e. hypnosis is necessary and usually a deeper state than one can achieve
through self hypnosis.
SUPERCONSCIOUS MIND
Sets the
programming of the subconscious for the “lessons” and “purpose” of the
soul. each incarnation of the soul. Is the level of mind activated in
certain “altered” states of consciousness such as “awakened” states of
ecstasy. Is the seat of the Higher
Self. (See Levels of Spirit.)
COLLECTIVE MIND
Sometimes called the collective
unconscious. Can be thought of as the subconscious level of the mind of
all spirit. Manifests the objective world of physical reality through
the programming given it by spirit. The programming given it by universal
mind and by the collective thoughts, beliefs, emotions, and actions of
spirit create and affect the collective experiences of spirit. As the collective consciousness of humans,
for instance, changes the collective experiences of humans change. Thus,
the future is not fixed, but changes as the collective mind changes.
UNIVERSAL MIND
Can be thought of as the superconscious mind of all of
spirit. The records of the physical embodiment of souls are kept in universal
mind. These records are frequencies of energy. Much like television frequencies,
these frequencies can be arranged into images by the mind, which is why
so many psychics think of the records as books or scrolls. These records
are alternately called The Akashic Records, Soul Records, The Book of
Light, and The Universal Records. Are accessible through the Higher Self
and higher levels of spirit.
THE ASTRAL LEVELS
While levels of spirit they can also be thought of as
levels of the mind. They are levels of non-physical energy that are closely
associated with the physical levels of energy. These are the levels within
the subconscious and/or collective mind to which the soul travels when
the body sleeps. These travels are “remembered” as “dreams”. Thoughts
are manifested instantly in these levels as us traveling. When you think
of being somewhere in the astral levels, you are there - even other planets
and other times. As time and physical form pass away, their energy “imprints”
remain. The astral levels of Earth are where fairies”, “sprites”, “elves”,
“leprechauns”, and other creatures of “myth” dwell. Life on many planets
are in the astral levels only. It is possible to materialize a physical
form from astral energy with sufficient “life force” made available. It
is also possible to “time” travel and to “space travel” by dematerializing
physical energy into astral energy for traveling and then materializing
back to physical energy when ‘arriving”. Astral energy affects physical
energy and physical energy affects astral energy. (See Levels of Spirit.)

SPIRIT
THE
CREATOR is THE SOURCE of all that is. SPIRIT is an aspect of THE
CREATOR, but is not, itself, THE CREATOR. Much like sunlight is
part of the sun, but is not, itself, the sun. The essence of SPIRIT
is LIGHT. SPIRIT, as an aspect of THE CREATOR, and as such has will.
SPIRIT uses its creator energy - LIGHT - to manifest its will.
There are many, many levels of spirit. Among these are those listed below.
LEVELS OF SPIRIT
(As Presently Understood)
SOUL
All spirit is one. Mind separates
the spirit into seemingly separate aspects, or parts, of spirit. Among
these aspects are individual spirits often called the soul. It is interesting
to note that neither LIGHT nor HIGHER SPIRIT use the term “soul”. They
use the term spirit, but understand humans use the term “soul” for the
levels of spirit that embody in physical and/or non-physical forms.
LOWER SELF
Your individual spirit - your
soul - has far greater energy than can be embodied in physical form. Thus
only a part - or aspect - of your soul embodies. This part is the aspect
you consciously know to be “you”. This part is what might be termed the
“lower self” aspect - or part - of your soul. Another term often used
for the “lower self” is soul personality.
The lower self embodies in physical
form by surrounding the physical form with its energy. This energy enters
the physical body through “openings” in the energy fields of the body.
These openings are popularly called “chakras” or “energy centers”. The
energies of the lower self affect the energies of the body and the energies
of the body affect the energies of the lower self. The subconscious mind
is part of both the lower self and the body to which the lower self is
attached. Both the body and the lower self influence and are influenced
by the “programs” of the subconscious mind, including the physical and
emotional programming. It is the lower self that builds what is popularly
called “karma” or “lessons” - both “positive” and “negative” - through
the choices it makes in thought, belief, and action. These choices become
part of the subconscious programming.
This programming can be changed, however, for the programming to
remain changed it is necessary for the consciousness that created this
programming to accept the change.
There are many aspects, or levels
of consciousness, of the lower self. One of these is popularly called
the “inner child”. However, there are many levels of the “inner child”,
each corresponding to a change in consciousness. Before the age of 20,
these correspond more or less to every age you have been, as consciousness
changes rapidly in these ages. These inner ages do not “go away” as you
age. They continue to exist as an aspect of your lower self. Ideally,
they are in harmony emotionally and mentally with one another and with
the “present age” you. When there is not “inner harmony” this negatively
affects the energies of the lower self and the body. .
HIGHER SELF
The greater whole of your soul,
or individual spirit, is the Higher Self. You are a lower self aspect,
or soul personality, of your Higher Self. The Higher Self chooses, before
the embodiment of the lower self, the purpose and the lessons for the
lower self in that embodiment, a.k.a. incarnation. These choices become
part of the subconscious programming for the lower self. The Higher Self
desires knowledge as its greatest desire is to grow in awareness and understanding.
The Higher Self does not “judge” the choices made by the lower self as
all experiences bring greater knowledge. The Higher Self guides and influences
through this guidance the lower self to
the extent allowed by the lower self . The Higher Self surrounds the
lower self with the energies needed by the lower self. The lower self
remains connected with the Higher Self and to the body through what is
popularly called a “golden chord”. This is simply a greater concentration
of Higher Self energy that “nourishes” or “feeds” the lower self and the
body through the “crown chakra” or opening in the energy field at the
top of the head. The Higher Self is not affected by the subconscious programming.
Nor is it affected by the energy fields of the body or the lower self.
This is why your Higher Self guidance is so valuable. It knows your purpose,
your lessons, your abilities. It knows what is and what is not to your
higher good. The Higher Self brings to you the assistance and protection
you need to meet your purpose, your lessons, and your goals. “True” spirit
guides are “assigned” by the Higher Self for this, and these spirit guides
will change as your needs and desires change. Your experiences are observed
by your Higher Self which gains in awareness and understanding (consciousness)
from these experiences. The Higher Self uses this knowledge to guide its
lower selves. For example: Your “past” and “future” lives - whether on
this planet or others - are lower self aspects, or soul personalities,
of your Higher Self. Knowledge gained by the Higher Self from these aspects
can be used to guide you. “Past life” and “future life” personalities
are not you in the sense they have their own personalities and characteristics
and consciousness. They are you in the sense they are aspects, or soul
personalities, of your Higher Self.
DISCARNATE
A lower self that was once embodied
in physical form. Has the soul personality developed in its embodiment.
SPIRIT ATTACHMENT
A spirit that attaches to the
physical body of another. Usually a discarnate, but can also be an alien
(see below) or astral being created by the mind (see below).
"E.T." (EXTRA TERRESTRIAL) &
ALIEN SPIRITS
Lower selves that identify planets
other than Earth as their “planet of origin”.
ASTRAL SPIRITS
Lower self aspects of the soul
that dwell or journey in the astral levels of spirit . Thought forms of
beings or creatures created by the mind also are in these astral levels.
Astral forms are non-physical but are closely associated with the physical.
For example: A house has an astral energy field that is not visible in
the physical world but is visible in the non-physical, or astral, world.
All physical objects have their counterpart in the astral world, including
the human body and the physical bodies of animals. When the body in the
physical world dies, its astral energy dissipates, but the mind of the
lower self aspect can reassemble this energy from memory in the astral
world when it desires to do so. Thought forms manifest instantaneously
in the astral world. The “world” of dreams are part of the astral world,
as are hallucinations and visions.
SPIRIT GUIDES
Spirits that are given the “assignment”
to protect, guide, or assist lower selves. There are many spirits that
“assign” themselves roles as spirit guides. Whether a spirit guide is
or is not to the higher good of a lower self can be determined by the
Higher Self.
ANGELS
Name given by some to spirit
guides and given by others to spirits that are messengers of Higher Spirit.
HIGHER SPIRIT
Highest level of spirit consciousness
and spirit guidance. Does not incarnate. Receives and passes on to other
levels of spirit the direct communications of THE CREATOR.
THE LIGHT
The essence of spirit. Creator
Energy. Creator Consciousness. As the death of the physical body, lower
selves move into “THE LIGHT”, meaning they move into the higher consciousness
levels of spirit. Which level this is depends upon the level of consciousness
- awareness and understanding - attained while in the body.
