Superconscious Mind

What is debated is whether superconsciousness is a separate level of mind or just another function of our powerful subconscious.

To add to the mystery, it is also associated with a higher level of consciousness called the universal consciousness, God, cosmic intelligence, the collective unconscious or quantum consciousness. This is the mind or field in which we are all one and have access to all knowledge. As Joe Vitale says, "We are all drops in the ocean of God."

Superconsciousness is associated with higher potential, creativity, intuition, quantum reality and spiritual awareness. People who have developed mind powers such as being psychic are often attributed to being able to access universal consciousness or the quantum consciousness field.

Some believe that this level of mind interacts with the brain and the human energy field but is not part of the brain or body.

As scientists explore quantum physics, it becomes more evident that we are surrounded by waves of energy. We now know that "all is energy" including thought. This knowledge makes it an easy jump to believe that quantum levels of mind are a reality.

How to Access the Superconscious Mind

If you want to invent or create something new, and you have no prior knowledge of it, you can access this higher level of mind to get the information. Perhaps this is how the great inventors were able to make the leap from ideas to creating something entirely new. Or perhaps the idea was given to them from the quantum consciousness.

Brain scans show that experienced meditators alter certain areas of the brain during deep meditation. One area that is affected is the parietal lobe located in the brain region between the ear and the back of the head. This area helps a person feel oriented in time and space.

When activity in the parietal lobe decreases, you lose your sense of orientation and self. Whether this just lets you feel as though you are in universal mind, or you actually are experiencing quantum consciousness is still open to debate.

I had such an experience after falling asleep sending energy to one of our dogs. When I awoke I didn't feel my hand or his body. There was only one energy until my conscious mind was again able to discern separation. It was a beautiful experience to feel that oneness with another living being.

Another line of thought is that all the information we know is stored in the energy field outside our bodies. We share information with this field directly and continuously. You can see how this works in the mental biofield video.

Whether we have to access higher levels of mind through the subconscious or can interact with it directly may not make to much difference in actual practice. What does appear important is that if you want to access this field directly you need to be in a relaxed, focused state of mind.

Meditation, hypnosis, and brainwave entrainment are three tools that can help you do that.
