REFLECTIONS… Gittanjali Elizabeth Mordecai (Singh)
The mind has four divisions that control it:
1. COGNIZANCE: To recognize which of the six senses has moved and entered the mind set
2. PERCEPTION: To perceive the quality of the message received from any of the six senses and to decide whether it is good or bad
3. SENSITIVITY: On receiving the decision of the Perception about the quality of the message, the senses either enjoy or dislike that particular signal or sensation.
4. REACTION: Is the culmination of all the three above. The mind-set will cause a reaction which will again give birth to an action which will be followed by another reaction.
CONCEPTION-PERCEPTION-REALIZATION
Everything is created by thought; an idea, a concept, a brainwave, an enterprise… everything takes its roots in the mind and thoughts are created.
PASSIVE THOUGHTS just lie in there burdening the sub-conscious adding and increasing all the impressions of all past manifestation.
ACTIVE THOUGHTS are projected into the universe and manifest as material reality.
An Architect conceives a project design, makes a blue print and then constructs accordingly materializing his thought concepts and images into reality. Hence, everything in the material world has mattered because it was given a thought.
