INTRODUCTION

We think therefore we are. We live everyday in the conscious mind level which we developed as our body formed in our mother’s uterus, and that is what we think is all we are during this life. There is more to us than that, for the mind is like an iceberg and the 15% above the water is our conscious mind for everyday use, the rest the other 85% is the unconscious mind with our other levels of consciousness.

We look at ourselves, with our consciousness functioning at several levels, and try to unlock our understanding of Man, that great mystery of the planet. We need to look into these levels and methods of thought, and at the Spirit behind them and in them, to gain this insight.

Philosophy is defined as the study or the science of the principles underlying all knowledge and being. The understandings contained within this book are the interface of Science, Medicine, Religion, Philosophy, and Spirituality.

Your identity, the core of your being, is your Life Force powering your body; an energy form which is not born and doesn’t die, it is your Eternal Self in the Unconscious-mind of everyday life. There may be little to remind us of this in daily society. The eternal nature of the human spirit through the birth-death-birth cycle of the many lives we pass through needs to be an everyday perception. This Life Force brings our consciousness and destiny along: it is a part of the power which holds the universe in being.

We can now see that we are in one of the many dimensions of life and reality in the universe, and that our thoughts are energy, and this power lasts through time. Things are changing; we are reaching the age of Hope and Love.

This work studies the functions of unconscious areas of our mind and the concept that we work from both conscious and unconscious areas. In the 1800’s the subconscious was described as a factor in mental disease, and initially all the unconscious areas of the mind were thought of as the subconscious; we now realize there are other deeper parts as well with important functions, and refer to them also. We are now able to utilize our subconscious actively in assisting our life journey; you can influence yourself for confidence and success, and choose to have happiness and health; to find joy and love in all things. True wealth lies within reach.

In learning to see the way we each relate within to our deeper unconscious areas of the mind, and seeing the way we are influenced throughout life by our Self Image, you can see then that the way we think of ourselves is vital for our well-being. The way we join into our unconscious-mind during the relaxation of sleep is both a joy and a mystery for each of us. We are able to learn to utilize this deeper consciousness and see how it successfully organizes our life. Our Eternal Self within is also called our Soul, and the understanding of how it works is helpful in knowing who and why we are; to see that we each have another life at a different conscious energy level, and that in that level we are loved and cherished.

In this complex modern world, there is nothing to fear, for you in your deeper unconscious being, are an eternal entity of loving energy which is part of the Source, God, All That Is, the Force; the Eternal Energy Field that holds the universe in being, and is within you, giving origin to your conscious thoughts.

The nature of this loved self which you are, is not easy to comprehend while thinking with a human brain and mind, and I hope in this short text to give some of the essentials. We are each on an individual journey through this human life in which it is easy to get lost, and lose sight of the goal. Knowing what the game is about and understanding your role in it can help you remain connected, to the love and kindness which is behind it all. That which you seek you already are, for God is all things, and you are that.

All this is just words: it is so easy to get trapped with the tyranny of words creating their own bondage. The grandeur of the human spirit, and the love behind all creation, the deep love in the energy of life; these are the essential forces to remember. This knowledge is ancient but we need to upgrade the way we use the words to see and understand.

You are here in this dimension of life coming into a family, a country and culture which give your life its intended set of experiences, reactions, choices and meanings; from which you learn and profit, before moving on through the doorway called death, to your next life-form destiny.

Know your Eternal Self within, for you are a loved part of the eternity in all things; you are never alone, never without hope; for you have God within, in the deeper part of your consciousness; unconscious in the everyday, yet there giving life, hope, love, power and joy.

CHAPTER ONE

THE SEARCH WITHIN

Acquire knowledge of the Self.

The identity we recognize as our own is the one from our birth into the family of man which gave us the name we wear. While we may appear similar to our family members, we are individually different, and on our own journey propelled by a different set of imperatives; for we each in our deeper levels, are an eternal spirit, with a special way of seeing things. Our real identity lies in our deeper consciousness, as a part of the Unconscious-mind, something we access in sleep and in many other ways each day.

Our worldly identity is secured from our family racial culture and we are guided through life by these thoughts and operating instructions fed into our early thinking by childhood education. The thoughts of our Everyday Conscious-mind Level 1 with its decision making and Ego are mistaken as being all there is; for the conscious-mind Level 1 is generally unable to think beyond the body. However there is more, for the deeper knowledge coming from our unconscious-mind is influencing the conscious thoughts we form, and this deeper unconscious is our real identity. Access to the unconscious is always available, sometimes ‘without thinking’, with flashes of inspiration, new ideas from ‘nowhere’, the sudden gift of ‘insight’; coming to us also in the course of sleep or with reflective thinking,

From earliest childhood I have been gifted with an inner knowing, which has led me through a surgical career, and a retirement career as sculptor, painter, and writer. Now as I survey this beautiful world and our current civilization, with its great technical advances and its loss of moral truth and certainty, I see the need to attempt to portray the insights I have been shown, over many years of searching, and to convey knowledge of the philosophy to guide us forward; for there cannot be anything more useful than knowledge of one’s own self. This is the knowledge of one’s higher consciousness, one’s Eternal Self, our own divinity. To know the Eternal Self within is to know that in the unconscious-mind we each are God the Eternal Spirit; the creative energy in all things. This is hidden from us in many ways in everyday life and one can pass a whole lifetime before the truth becomes clear.

Who Am I

We are born and we are alive within our body, which is a mass of multiplying cells that create effects with the hormones produced; and with thoughts which create influence. We mould our circumstances, and pass through life’s stages, until we reach the end. But who are we? Where and what did we come from? And why?

My father believed there was no before and no after, and told me when I was aged 9 years there was no such thing as God; at the time a voice in my head was saying ‘he’s wrong you know’. As a child in the 1930’s with the busy town doctor as a father, I earned my pocket money repairing everything about the home when it broke. When I needed to know how, I learned that if I just sat and waited with what was needed, the thoughts on how would just arrive, from ‘nowhere’.

After a busy medical and surgical career I still needed to answer the old questions for my own understanding, and sought to prove to myself the existence of the spirit world, perhaps the source of my lifelong inner knowings; and began to look at past life experiences with a clairvoyant, recommended by a friend with whom I had written a book. She worked with meditation sessions and refused to charge money but was able to show me much of myself, through the spirit entities who helped her, and together they gave me over the years a wide introduction to the understanding of the other worlds we live with. I augmented my medical life understanding with knowledge of the other energies and dimensions, helped by the wonderful entities I was privileged to know and be educated by. This opened wider the door to the beyond we come from, and my widening view and education never stops.

A teaching of spiritual philosophy to show who we really are and what we are doing here in the life-death-life cycle of living on our beautiful planet, becomes a necessary way to reintroduce the joy and love which are meant to be central to the human experience. We must regain that Hope which sustains us.

Moral Standard

We need a new moral standard through education first in the home and then in the school and the work place.

Guidance of the young growing consciousness shapes our future. Know the nature of your reality within as the unconscious-mind containing the eternal spirit in each of us, allowing for fulfilment of life’s purpose.

Establish yourself in this firm conviction and unwavering faith, as you look into the nature of the wonders of the human mind.

We enable the light of this new understanding to guide us into the energies of the new centuries.

The reality of our cycles of life and death through our many human lives, contrasts strongly with the current materialistic philosophies in civilizations of the recent past centuries; something has to change. The old philosophy that the end justified the means is no longer valid because in this dimension there is no end, for each individual is eternal, and we come and go from this dimension of life and matter, which is constantly changing, evolving, and renewing.

Many Dimensions

We are surrounded by other dimensional energies which we may not be aware of.

Everything is vibrating with life and that vibration determines which of the many dimensions it is held in. This earth and visible cosmos is in one of the countless dimensions which are around and through, overlapping and beyond; fields of created matter each held in an energy system: Independently yet relating in their energies. We are unable to detect these other dimensions around with our sensors. We live in this one world and it is our reality, but it is just one of many overlapping dimensions each held in place by the vibrational frequency in its particles and atoms. Quantum physics is now discovering more of these multiple dimensions and energies (Chapter 6).

Look Within

To understand ourselves we need to look within into our conscious levels. We are a mixture of the conscious and the unconscious, functioning in these basic levels: The reason for this separation into different levels is to give us the freedom to BE in our daily conscious life; while not being dominated by our past, or by the grandeur of our Eternal Self in the unconscious-mind. While we are in this life in the body, we grow and learn, progress and mature; and finally return to the dimensions of spirit around: Then back in the higher energy dimensions, we will be able to see it all, the complete picture.

The knowing of the immortal Eternal Self within, and our ability to understand more of our own levels of thinking, both in this world, and in the higher energy dimensions around, is important. We must now return to the understanding of the greater truth and love of our real Self within. Life on this planet gives us an education, with many bumps along the way, an experience in choices, and chances for more rapid advancement. It is a valued and sought after opportunity. We are here for the learning of LOVE, to give love and to radiate it around. We come here as a Spirit in a Body for this wonderful lifetime experience, for fresh encounters with old friends from former lives, and a fresh agenda for this current life.

Daily Conscious

This daily consciousness we live in, which we call our conscious-mind Level One, is our vehicle for life in the body; this life, this Ego: all-demanding as it is. Our identity coming from our family, our society and our genes, is conditioned by deeper influences coming from the energy of our Eternal Self; which enters the body long before birth, and influences our formation in utero, our birth, our life journey, and our departure timing; this is with us as our unconscious guidance system throughout life, and is there for us to use. While we are engaged and reacting in this world, in our Everyday conscious-mind level of being, our Unconscious-mind is also engaged at its own levels.

Our Unconscious Self, the Deeper Unconscious and the Subconscious

These deeper unconscious-mind levels which are a part of us, surprise us at times with unexpected influences coming from ‘nowhere’.

You are aware of what you do consciously each day, but you are often unaware of that other level of activity. For example when you meet someone new you are busy talking with them, but your higher conscious level in your unconscious-mind, is also reacting, and this is often the reason you may respond to that person in ways you may not have expected, or may have failed to understand; they may be old friends or enemies from some of your previous lives: Their higher conscious also is reacting; perhaps you have some old unfinished business to work out. This feeling is that presence or charisma we often sense in another person.

We enter our unconscious-mind in sleep and need this union with our Eternal Self daily, and it also comes to us every day with intuition. It is always with us, and we learn to value it as our Dear Friend within.

This Dimension, this life, this world

With you alive in your body and in your mind, you hold your identity as the knowing of your everyday conscious-mind in this dimension of life; but you also bring with you the multi-dimensional energies of your Eternal Self, which is active in your unconscious-mind as well as around the world in other ways; these energies include those of your former lives, and your connections to All That Is; which are busy influencing you in subtle ways, and guiding you on: But are also creating influences in the world around.

Your Unconscious, your Eternal Self, knows your full story, but if your Everyday Conscious knew it also, that would be too distracting; you would be too distracted by what you have been, and are, at deeper levels. You are here this time to pursue this lifetime with its ambitions, achievements, sufferings and potential; following the destiny you agreed to, and came for this time, with this lifetime to do it.

As you read this consider the mental outlook you hold within, which has been with you from birth; yet this is only one of the your conscious levels used each day. These conscious levels work in together so you are not separately aware of them; yet for knowing and understanding yourself in depth, you need to open them out, look at them separately, and see how they work together.

We live in changing times and a new light is dawning for a greater understanding which we must bring to our human life to give better harmony and beauty, within, and around.

The simplicity of the understanding we now have available is breathtaking.

All One; we are all one

You and the universe are one; you and the absolute are one; you and the eternal are one. The understanding of the eternal nature of the human spirit, through the birth-death-birth cycle of each of the many lives we each pass through, needs to become an everyday reality. We are all interconnected in our unconscious-mind energy which is our life force and is the energy field of the universe, yet this knowledge lies in our deeper unconscious levels, generally unavailable at a daily level as we live the earth experience.

It will be possible now to see that we are in one of the many dimensions of life in the universe, and that our thoughts are energy, and this energy lasts through time. Remember, you as your Eternal Self are that pristine original, the Soul which is the Reality within, as an integral part of the Eternal God; the Atma. These are united as all-one within you, in your Unconscious-mind; in the eternal energy field we call God. Seeing how these energies can appear to be separate yet are all one, in a multi-dimensional way, is part of the learning to come.

The teachings of this phenomenon have totally changed the way we are enabled to see the world and ourselves, and yet for most westerners it is distant. The way the energies
