CHAPTER 3, ESSAY 2 – Workings of the Unconscious

How does the Sub C work to enhance your wisdom so that you can make the proper choice?  It has been created within you to help you find eternity.  It knows what you feel and everything that you have done, thought, read, or heard. 

Whenever a man’s C is faced with a pending action, his Sub C regurgitates his past memories and feelings of similar actions, along with the results of those acts.  What he has read or heard also can be brought up in screened memory.  How he felt about these things is very important.  The Sub C is a very emotional being.  It goes to great effort to protect or exploit its feelings.  The Sub C also goes to great length to make the C aware of the new choice it must make, be it a small act or a large and important decision in his life.  There is always plenty of feed-back for the right decision.

Man, with his C power to reason, now has a chance to grow in wisdom by evaluating and improving on his past choice of action.  A series of right choices with resultant good feedback will develop a satisfied, constructive motivation.  This is a big step in the right direction.  A hurting Sub C is a hurting man who is suffering because of too many destructive choices.  His motivation may be to share his hurt by making others hurt too.  Man’s feelings and their resultant motivations play an important part in the Sub C’s perception of an impending act.

When the C of man is faced with any action, his Super C relays to him whatever it is necessary for him to know to make the right decision.  This other part of a man’s unconscious, like his Sub C, is always ready with directives to help any situation if man will only “hear.”  Conversely man can choose to ignore this voice of conscience and not “see” the direction in which it points.  A pattern made up of his past reasoning and the choices that were made can be changed.  Upon recognizing and reconsidering his manner of reacting to a given situation, he can choose to act in a new manner.  This better way is now stored in his Sub C along with his new feeling; it becomes the norm from which he acts. Wisdom grows from right choices, and so does self satisfaction.  The full results of unwise past experiences, ignored because of present pleasure or gratification, can become stupidity.  Guilt can bury what should be held open for a healthy mind set.  Only the C “will to growth” can uncover it, if the urge is strong; otherwise man’s emotions will revolt.
