Summary

The provided text is a channeled message discussing the nature of the subconscious mind, its creation through childhood experiences, and the potential for individuals to access and integrate their subconscious with their conscious mind through spiritual practices, ultimately leading to personal empowerment and a deeper understanding of life's diversity.

Abstract

The text delves into the concept of the subconscious mind as presented by an entity named Joshua, who is part of the author's energy group. It explains that the subconscious is a collection of thoughts, beliefs, and experiences that individuals choose to suppress, often starting from childhood. The message emphasizes that while society, particularly through organized religion, often dictates what should be consciously acknowledged versus subconsciously repressed, individuals have the capacity to access their subconscious mind fully. This access is said to be achievable through practices like meditation and yoga, which expand consciousness and self-awareness. The text suggests that such integration is crucial for personal growth and for experiencing the full spectrum of life, which is ultimately about diversity and the contrast between positive and negative experiences. It also touches on the balance of experiences across multiple lifetimes, including the balance of male and female incarnations.

Opinions

  • The subconscious mind is not inherently inaccessible; societal and personal choices dictate its concealment.
  • Childhood experiences, shaped by parental and societal influences, significantly contribute to the formation of the subconscious.
  • Organized religions often limit the exploration of the subconscious by defining strict boundaries of acceptable conscious experiences.
  • Spiritual practices that avoid dogmatic teachings can facilitate the integration of the subconscious and conscious minds.
  • The purpose of life, from the perspective of Source or All-That-Is, is to experience diversity, which includes the full range of human emotions and experiences.
  • Some individuals may choose not to engage in spiritual practices to fully immerse themselves in the highs and lows of life, which is a valid life path.
  • The concept of balance across lifetimes is important, including the experience of being both male and female, as well as alternating between spiritual and non-spiritual existences.
  • The ultimate state of consciousness is one where the subconscious mind is fully integrated and accessible, leading to enlightenment where distinctions between conscious and subconscious dissolve.

A Channeled Message from my Energy Group

How to Undo the Power of Your Subconscious Mind

Anyone can unlock to their subconscious mind, but we don’t want to for many reasons.

by Marco (cc-by, Flicker.com)

The following is a channeled message that I received on December 24, 2019. It is an excerpt from a chapter in my evolving online book, My Channeling Diaries (on Wattpad.com). Joshua is the guide who brought this message.

The Subconscious

JOSHUA:Subconscious” is an interesting idea. When we talk about the subconscious, what we are talking about is a part of your mind, your thoughts, and beliefs that you do not want to directly experience.

For something to be subconscious requires an intentional decision by the person to place a belief, thought, or knowledge in the subconscious. In truth, everything can be conscious for an individual in this 3rd Dimensional reality that you are experiencing in this life.

Any person can have total access to their subconscious. But they choose not to do that. And they choose not to do that for many reasons.

Creating The Subconscious

It starts when the baby, and the young child, is taught by its parents. Often, this is unintentional, as the parents are modeling their behavior. Certain things are taught to be acceptable, and certain things are not acceptable. Certain experiences and aspects in this physical, 3rd Dimensional reality are socially okay and accepted.

Other things are suppressed and not allowed to be perceived. And so, the young infant, the young child, learns that those things that are not allowed and should not be acknowledged. They are put into this category, into this box of the subconscious, because that is the easiest way to deal with it.

by David Barrie (cc-by, Flicker.com)

We are reminded of a story that you recently heard of a young child seeing a man in his parent’s bedroom who the parent could not see. Those kinds of experiences are very common with young children. They see things that are part of this 3rd Dimensional reality that other people do not see. Or, rather, other people have suppressed them and put them into that subconscious box. They intentionally blind themselves to those types of experiences.

And that is what the subconscious mostly is. It is the blocking off of certain things. Because that is what those of you born into this 3rd Dimensional reality have done. It is part of the “entering” process — that process of entering 3rd Dimensional reality. And then learning how to work in this 3rd Dimensional reality.

(…)

Childhood & Teenage Years

And that whole period of coming into this existence starts in pre-birth and lasts through childhood. At some point, the subconsciousness coalesces. This includes the “boxing off” of experiences, of what is allowed and what is not allowed, and of taking in the attitudes, the genetic codes even, of the parents and the place in which you were born.

Puberty is the ultimate transition out of that phase. And from then on, you are working with the issues that were set up at that time in your life — the thought patterns that were created.

Now, it does not mean that you cannot change those. That is what most of life is about: dealing with those types of issues that arose in those early years and seeking ways to address those issues. And that is what a lot of the exploration that begins in the teenage years, and expands into the later years, and into the rest of your life, is all about.

The teenage years are a period of exploring one’s individuality. Teenagers are known for taking risks. It is a time in which one is trying to feel out the limitations of what they have created in their pre-teen years. That all comes together in those teenage years. And so, it is in those teenage years where they start feeling what are the boundaries, how far can I go within these, within what I have set up for myself?

Psychological Dogma

Unfortunately, most of human culture, especially modern human culture, does not have a very good structure for doing that. There is some awareness that something like that is going on, and there is some leeway for allowing those kinds of things. But understanding how the subconscious and conscious divisions were created is not understood at all.

by Fiction of Reality (cc-by, Flicker.com)

And it is barely understood in adulthood. As seen in how psychologists and psychiatrists try to define and treat those hidden, subconscious parts of the mind. There is an assumption that the subconscious is not something that the conscious mind can directly access.[1]

We are here to say that is not true. The subconscious mind is accessible as one expands their energy levels, their consciousness, and their self-awareness. They do that through practices such as meditation (and yoga is a form of meditation) and various types of spiritual practices. Especially valuable are practices that open one up and do not have strong dogmatic preaching of what is right and what is wrong.

That is one of the problems with most organized religions. They are defining what is right, what is wrong, what is allowed on the conscious level, and what is suppressed and pushed into that subconscious box. Those kinds of traditions do have some value. There is no doubt that they can expand an individual’s consciousness — especially if the individual moves beyond the dogma of the religious hierarchy. There is quite a bit of potential in all religions for that.

For the masses, they are kind of stuck in that religion model. And that is not necessarily bad. Doing activities that open the consciousness is also opening up that subconscious mind. It is making parts of the subconscious mind more accessible to the conscious mind. That gives one a new level of personal empowerment to make this physical time-space reality a better place for the person and for everyone who meets that person.

Experiencing Diversity

Now I want to step back. I mentioned that it is not necessarily bad to be caught in an organized religion model.

That is because the purpose of life is to experience diversity. It is for All-That-Is (or Source) to create and then experience that diversity. And so, most people do not have that drive to become spiritual, to move into greater integration with All-That-Is, with their soul. (This is changing somewhat, nowadays.) Most people are living on that surface level of experiencing the good and the bad and complaining about the bad and enjoying the good.

Which is good. In fact, those extremes of emotion, of high enjoyment and high, or low, dis-enjoyment, of feeling bad and feeling good — that is part of that diversity of life.

And some people, when they are born into this life, this existence, this physical reality, that is their goal. They want to experience the differences to the max, to experience the highs and the lows. And one of the ways to do that is to not engage in any spiritual practices, or any practice that is going to reveal the truth behind the highs and the lows — the truth from the perspective of Source, or All-That-Is.

The truth is that there is no difference. There is no difference between what is positive and what is negative. It is all just an experience. It is an experience of the diversity of existence.

Balance

But for some people, that is the reason they came into this life — to have that experience. And they will go through their whole life with that. And at the very end, they might start thinking about some other things, some other more spiritual things. But that is fulfilling their dharma with what their purpose is in this incarnation.

by Nick Kenrick (cc-by, Flicker.com)

Now, usually, that is something that a soul and personality [an entity that is born into physical reality] choose for a particular purpose for an incarnation. And most likely, they are not going to do that with every incarnation that they have. In fact, when they have had something like that in one life, then it is very likely that the next incarnation could be the opposite. It could be one that’s focused on spirituality and the reintegration of that diversity with their inner oneness to balance things out.

In the same way, it is important to balance being male and female across different lifetimes. Sometimes, somebody will have a series of lifetimes (and again we are talking about time here as something real) in which they are male. In that case, they need to have some female experiences or vice versa. And so, they will do that. Other people are more balanced as they go through these different incarnations.

Closing

So, with that, thank you for being here. I am Joshua. We are a group of guides who exist at a different level of reality, a different dimension of reality. … We love your physical time-space reality and all the entities that exist within this time-space reality.

Goodbye for now.

Note

  • [1] Freud’s model of the mind includes Conscious, Preconscious, and Unconscious parts. “Preconscious” was that portion of the Unconscious that can, through shadow work, be accessed by the Conscious mind. Freud generally avoided using the word “Subconscious” and never defined it as anything separate from the Unconscious mind. — Contemporary psychology generally equates Subconscious with Preconscious. It is the part of your Unconscious that is more accessible and less “repressed” than the parts in your deeper Unconscious. — I believe Joshua used the term “Subconscious” to be everything that is below our normal Conscious mind. Our consciousness expands from our Conscious mind by bringing more of our Sub/Unconscious mind into the realm of our Conscious mind. Joshua suggests that at the highest states of consciousness (or enlightenment), the Sub/Unconscious mind does not exist, and we have full access to our entire mind.
