The conscious and the subconscious

Our mind is a really powerful tool. If you look at it its like an ocean, we see merely it's surface. The depth to this ocean is limitless.
Mind is of two parts. The conscious, which we have absolute control over and the subconscious part. Most of us might think that both these parts are equally cut. And some think that the conscious part is much bigger than the other. Consider the example of the ocean, the conscious part is the surface and the subconscious is all the depth.
  
   lets talk about the conscious. 

Is conscious everything we control? Not entirely. Conscious is the part of us that lets us observe. It is a tool that helps us understand and answer questions of What, Where, When & How. A little confusing? Let's break it down to a much simpler sense. Right now you are reading this article. This is done by the conscious brain. It basically deciphers every word that you read so that you understand it. The voice in your head when you say something to yourself is a good example of consciousness. But the voice that replies is entirely a different subject. As we observe the conscious part also develops a sequence that is used to decide what we do next. This is something we can control. the ability to decide is given to us by this part of our brain. Without which we will be mere thoughtless beings. Can we say consciousness is what we are? the answer is yes and no. yes its the part that connects you to all your body. But it's not just it that controls us, there's a lot more to it and the only limitation is your imagination.

Now we know how the surface looks like, lets dive into the depth..

the subconscious, well, is something that cant be described entirely just by words. You have to add a little bit of imagination to it. It's not the opposite of conscious part, but rather a bridge that connects all parts of yourself including your brain to the consciousness. now conscious part helps you observe and react to situations, right? The subconscious also observes and makes decisions , but the difference is that it does it independently. I'll give you an example. if you have stairs at home you should try this. Only condition is that the home you are in has to be at least a week old. turn off all lights near the stairs so that its dark and you cannot see the stairs. Now try climbing it. You might think you will fall off but the steps you make will be more accurate than you think. even at the end without even seeing whats in front you will know when the last step is. This is impossible to do if you do not know how many steps there are. if you wont believe me try the same at somewhere unfamiliar to you. You will trip. and at the end we all raise our legs to step on something that isn't there and loose our balance. 

         The subconscious has a lot to be explained in a single article. I'll have to split it into fractions and explain each. Well at least a few of them. Later we will learn how to enhance this subconscious and achieve the impossible. I told you the possibilities are limitless. knowing how to design or change with just the help of your conscious and subconscious is something worth trying.

Food for thought : do you know that you can control your dreams? this is called Lucid Dreaming. No, this is not a fiction. This is something i have tried and experienced. this is the biggest gateway to your subconscious.
