The basic principle of the subconscious mind is that, whatever your mind can imagine it can create. Whatever you see, think or believe is sent to the subconscious mind and this then works with the universe to create real life situations which can lead to success or failure. You need to know how to use the power of the subconscious mind to achieve success. Your mind can create wonderful things for you if you know how to use it.
The mind has tremendous power, but you need to know how to use this power. Using the power of the mind to its full potential is very essential to achieve your goals and enjoying life. You need to master your own powers to achieve successful results in life.

You can create the kind of life you want by developing the law of attraction which plays a dramatic role in everybody's life. The secret lies in knowing how to successfully use the laws of attraction to create the life you want. The inner thoughts, emotions and mental programming of the mind is so set that you tend to attract similar experiences time and again whether they are successful or negative thus affecting all aspects of your life like your health, wealth, relationships and more. You tend to attract similar situations and experiences, and if you want to break that pattern, you need to know a few simple techniques to make these laws of attraction work for you.
It mostly happens that we tend to repel the things we desire most in our lives and attract the things we do not want. This happens due to our energy levels and we can obtain. We tend to attract people with similar levels of energy and feel uncomfortable around people with energy levels much higher or lower than ours. People with higher energy levels tend to uplift the atmosphere and people with lower energy levels can leave us feeling drained and tired.
Conclusion
The level of energy affects our life experiences with some people becoming more successful than others. To avoid getting stuck up in recurring pattern of life experiences and energy levels you need to find ways to break out of these set patterns to make your life more successful and meaningful. The method of strengthening our vibrational level helps us to break out of the recurring patterns in our lives. You can develop the laws of attraction in your life by three methods which are visualization, relaxation and emotional control.
These techniques need to be inculcated at the deepest levels to attract the things that we desire and push away the experiences that we do not want. These laws need to be understood properly and used effectively in order to achieve a strong personal success vibration. Though it sounds simple, the ability to visualize correctly and arriving at the correct level of relaxation is difficult. Anyhow, successful visualization requires to be monitored.

Tackling The Subconscious Mind
By dr c s shah
We all know something about our conscious mind. At least we can make certain presumptions about our consciousness. Consciousness for most of us is the fact of the awareness of our thinking, feeling, and doing. Although, the reactions to the stimuli may differ from person to person, or even in the same person from time to time, the fact that everyone is capable of reacting is taken as a sign of consciousness. These conscious acts are sometimes termed as conscious mind.
Similarly, certain acts are performed reflexively or without conscious awareness. For instance, mind goes on thinking bad thoughts despite attempts to control them. From where such thoughts as of anger, lust, jealousy, hatred, and even desire to harm others, come? Same is the case with good or noble thoughts also. Selflessness predominates in some persons to the extent that these persons give up everything and start working for the welfare of world. From where do such thoughts arise?
They arise from the subconscious mind. Subconscious mind is the sum total of our past experiences. What we feel, think, or do forms the basis of our experience. These experiences are stored in the form of subtle impressions in our subconscious mind. These impressions interact with one another and give birth to tendencies. We become prone to react in a particular way to a particular situation or stimulus depending upon the tendencies in our subconscious mind. The resultant of these tendencies determines our character. Depending on the strength and nature of their character people respond to the same stimuli or the situation in differing ways. The reaction varies according to the character of the individual.
Let us explain the concept with one example. The hot summer dries up everything, including the weeds, in a farm, and the field appears barren. Apparently there is nothing but black soil. Soon the rains soak the land and the imbedded seeds sprout up and fill the field with unwanted weeds again. The farmer never desired to have them, but when certain conditions were fulfilled the weed came to life. The rain water, the weather, and the seeds were sufficient to cause the weed to appear above the ground. However, the weed did not come with rain-water or from sky, or somewhere else; the weed was always present in the seed form in the soil itself!
Same is the case with us. There are impressions in the subtle form in our subconscious mind. On coming with contact with certain external factors the necessary conditions are fulfilled and these subtle impressions surface in their manifest form.
For instance, suppose there is silent unseen and unknown tendency to take alcohol, or to smoke, in our subconscious mind. Necessary conditions in the form of a friend, a bar, a cigarette vendor, etc. would bring forth the desire to drink or to smoke; and we are in there!
Another person has a latent or dormant tendency to seek God. The necessary external stimuli in the form of a scriptural text, meeting a Holy person, visiting a temple (or Church,) etc. attracts him/her, and what a wonder! the person is totally immersed in various spiritual practices, he becomes God centered. There never was any conscious effort or desire or thought to drink, to smoke, or to seek God. But fulfillment of necessary conditions was responsible for activating impressions in subconscious mind, and thus followed a particular behaviour.
But what about free will? Can we not choose the way we will react to a given condition or circumstance? Yes, we can choose; but the will is not absolutely free. The will, by which I make choices, behaves in accordance with my character, that sum total of all past deeds, thoughts, and feelings: The impressions not only from the present life, but also the whole record of many past lives that the subconscious mind carries.
Then is there no way out? There is. It is to follow the 'psychology of spiritual science'. We have to empty the mind of all unwanted subconscious impressions and tendencies: the weeds. It is almost an impossible task; almost but not totally impossible. It is possible to change the contents of mind (just as it is possible to sow groundnut seed so as to start replacing the weed). And as we have seen that the conscious experiences get stored up as subconscious impressions, we have to control and handle both conscious and subconscious mind. Our actions, thinking, and feeling should be such that the subconscious mind is cleansed of its dirty contents.
The Method
Suppose you have the problem of cleaning a dirty ink bottle that is fastened to the table. You can't pick it up and empty the ink out. What will you do? You pour clean water in the bottle, and the ink and the dirt will come out. You keep pouring in the clean water until all the ink and the dirt have been washed out and the bottle contains nothing but clean water. In the same way, although it is not possible to empty the mind by throwing out the contents of consciousness and making it blank; what one can do is to keep pouring clean water of pure thoughts of God, divinity, spirituality; virtues like love, selflessness, altruism, etc. into the mind until all the dirt of past impressions spills out.
During spilling out of this dirt, our character may appear miserable and suspect, but that is natural during the cleaning operation. The dirt of hundreds of past births may take quite some time to clear. Therefore, patience and perseverance are essential. One may feel dejected and depressed, and therefore, a Teacher, and Holy company is necessary. Sympathetic friends and attachment to a spiritual group are helpful.
Purer the mind better is the reflection of Divine/Truth therein. And to the degree the impressions on the mind are reduced, to that extent purer it becomes. Restlessness of mind and the number of desires have direct relation. Therefore, we have to reduce and control our desires. But this may create vacuum. And hence, it is better to desire for Grace of God, or for ability to discriminate and to have dispassion. In short, to tackle the subconscious mind, one should start filling the mind with noble thoughts by way of practice of meditation and yoga, discrimination and renunciation, selfless work and devotion.

Controlling the Subconscious Mind
By Stephen C Campbell
One of the most important aspects of the human life is to control the subconscious mind. Keeping it under control is the best way of getting the maximum out of the life. Most of the people today know what consciousness is. Sub consciousness is in fact, the exact opposite thing. Sometimes, some acts are performed without any conscious awareness. Take for example; bad thoughts creep into the mind despite the hard efforts to restrict it.
There are many other emotions like anger, jealousy, and hatred that come in ones mind. It is a big question about the origination of these thoughts. This is the work of the subconscious-mind. Subconscious-mind is nothing but the total of the past experiences of a person. Thus, whatever a person does today is based upon the experiences of the past.
Techniques of controlling the subconscious mind:
One of the basic techniques of controlling the subconscious-mind is the breathing technique. This is the easiest technique and can be done anytime and anywhere. It can even be used in a routine basis like study, sitting or any other activity. This also reduces the stress level and is effective while the person is angry. There are several steps involves in this process.
Steps in this process:
In the first step, the person has to close his mouth and start breathing slowly through the nose. Holding the breath for sometime and imagining the fresh air to move all about the body is the second step. The last step is to breath out the air through the nose. Be absolutely relaxed and watch all the stress and pain go away after the process. This process has to be repeated several times in the day for the best result.
Reprogramming and controlling the subconscious mind
Controlling or programming the subconscious mind is very important. The process of controlling the mind involves two levels. In the first level, the influence on the mind of people between 0 - 12 is observed. All the various cultures and traditions are learned from them and all this information is stored in the subconscious-mind. This thing can be better explained with the help of an example. Suppose a teacher tells a student that he will never be able to achieve anything in his life. This message is saved in the subconscious-mind. This is a negative belief that has been stored in the student mind and it helps him perform better in the future.
The second level of controlling the subconscious-mind consists of the beliefs about the life and the world. For example, if a person thinks that he will never be able to succeed in his life, then he will surely not succeed because he has blocked all the positive thoughts that can elevate the subconscious-mind.
Controlling the subconscious mind is very important to master this mortal body. The subconscious mind has a lot of energy stored and harnessing it rightly, is the key to success in life.
