I have questions about Truth to believers(nonbelievers don't answer please). What is Universal Mind?What is the relation between Universal Mind and Universal Concsiousness?Are they same thing?When i am thinking something,am i thinking with Universal Mind or "body mind"?Also what is body mind,is it seperate from Universal Mind,is it different than Universal Mind,where is it located? Is consciousness and awareness same thing?What about spirit and soul,are they same thing?Is consciousness,awareness and energy same thing?What does exactly spirit and soul mean?Is soul consciousness or God or energy?What is relation between God and Universal mind and Universal Consciousness? I am very confused with terms Also i want to ask,do only New Agers believe that "i experience what i believe" thing or are there other philosophies-religions which tell the same thing?Do all New Agers believe to subjective reality or some of them think that they create part of their reality? Is there only one world which all of us share,or does everybody have their own worlds? If all of us have our own worlds,then for example,why we see the samethings?For example,my mother can see the wall which i see,she has the wall in her world at the same place and i have the wall in my world at the same place?How is this possible?For example,Eiffel Tower in Paris,why do we all have this building in Paris city in our worlds?Why our worlds look same?Maybe our current feelings are different,beliefs are different.a beatiful sight may not make me excited as you,but we all have Eiffel Tower in Paris in our worlds,why we created the same building in our worlds?If i imagine that Eiffel Tower will fall down,and if it falls in one way and if i see it in the news,does it mean that it fell down only in my world and not in your world?

Universal mind and universal consciousness are the same thing. There are two levels of universal mind or consciousness. On one level, it is the collective consciousness of all beings in existence. On another level, it is the subconscious mind of Spirit or God that runs the universe. When you think a thought, you are thinking with the individual mind within the universal mind. The individual mind is individuated from the universal mind. Just like a wave in the ocean is individuated from the entire ocean. The wave is both wave and ocean at the same time. Consciousness is simply mind on all levels. There are subconscious, conscious and superconscious levels of mind. Awareness is the state of consciousness you are in. When your awareness is in the subconscious, you are dreaming. When your awareness is in the conscious, you are physically awake. When your awareness is in the superconscious, you are experiencing psyhic phenomena like clairvoyance and telepathy. "You create your own reality" is a universal truth that applies not only to New Age but basically all religion and spirituality. Subjective reality is the fundamental understanding behind all teachings of spirit and consciousness. The physical world is a shared reality where all our individual consciousness harmonize together to experience the same things. We created our own reality within this shared reality by the law of attraction. We attract situations into our lives that matches with our thoughts and feelings. The universal mind always works with the collective intents of people to direct the flow of the universe. If the collective intents of people to destroy a particular building is stronger than the collective intents of people to preserve it, the building will be destroyed. Unless divine intervention overules collective intent with its own intent. Usually the divine lets the collective consciousness run the show in most areas, while it oversees, influences, or overules it when necessary. Everyone has the ability to influence collective consciousness to go one way or another. You are able to affect reality in areas that bypass collective awareness.

Good way to describe what is really going on, however the divine intervention part leaves me wondering. By admiting there is a divinity that can change things or stop things happening implies that ultimately there is something bigger than us (which I accept) that can control us at will (which I don't accept) That takes away total and full responsibility for us, it means that at anytime for any reason you lose control, therefore you never have control at all. SR is too hard for me to accept (I don't want to be God) but your explaination is a good one that helps me understand what other people really are to me. I see the higher power as a system without bias, more like a non AI computer program rather than a purposeful entity that has control at will. Jeff |
