There is an unconscious or sub-conscious mind in all humans and YOU can prove it to yourself. The conscious mind is YOU, the part of you that is aware of its existence, its sensory experiences and plans and acts. The unconscious mind is not aware so that YOU know it but is aware as if it were another being and acts. It may be what acts when you dream.
YOU can prove to yourself the unconscious mind's existence by realizing that when YOU resign yourself to sleep YOU become unconscious, have no sense experiences and no power to will your self back to a conscious state. You are for all practical purposes in a state not unlike death. But something is there aware (but not so YOU know it) and if your mother calls or YOU have set an alarm clock it somehow senses this (YOU do not hear it at first until some degree of awareness returns) and brings YOU back to an aware conscious state. It will do this also naturally after a time with out an external awakener but YOU don't will it to do this YOU just trust it to do this. YOU have been "reborn"in a very real sense.
Good luck with your awakening, good mental health, peace and Love!
Every person has subconscious mind which works without knowledge of human mind. One doesn't know what's going on in such a mind and without knowing, such person acts, thinks and is surprised on such actions or thoughts.
I don't know about you but the only time I am unconscious is if I have been hit in the head with a board or am drunk out of my gourd. You me subconscious mind, we all have them. It is the really deep thinking and storage (memory) area of your brain, your brain works on worries or problems all the time even though you might not be conscious of them.
Indefinately. In Astrology, the 12th house is the dimension of the Psyche that refers to the workings of the Unconscious Mind. These represent archetypal energies that run counter to our conscious awareness of the world and ourselves, and are goverened inwardly.
Carl Jung coined the term in his studies, and believed that our collective Subconscious minds create what is known as the Superconscious, the storehouse of memory and a great colaboration of everything that has ever occurred, been thought of, or created, in the history of the universe. These are also refered to as the Akashic Records.
Unfortunately there is no 'Scientific' evidence to physically 'Measure' the occurance or existence of such a concept, because it exists on a level of pure feeling, energy in motion. The concept of the Unconscious runs counter to the Scientific paradigm that requires physical evidence to prove the existence of something. Science is ill-equipt to define subterraneaous feelings and impulses as anything but a conglamoration of neural firings and synapses.
I would say Sunshine is a metaphor for the conscious or Light forces of the Psyche (conscious awareness, that which is known, the light of day) and leaving one's tears in the unconscious (dark, veiled aspects of the Psyche) for the Sunshine to take, could be likened to the image of an iceberg rising above water level (rising to consciousness or day), to materialise and then melt under the heat of the sun, once again becoming one with the water (unconscious).
We all have an unconscious mind. How do you think we move our arms and legs, blink our eyes? We don't even think about it--We just do it. I don't know about leaving your tears there because mine are real but I definitely know we all have unconscious minds! :)
According to Sigmund Freud, we have all have a unconscious, subconscious, preconscious, and conscious mind. They are different layers of consciousness with unconscious being the deepest or hardest to access and conscious being what's at the surface and what we are completely aware of using. I put them in order (Freud's order). Freud describes the unconscious mind as containing repressed desires and memories and which cannot be easily brought into the conscious mind. I interpret this as the things we have learned in life that influence behavior and thought usually without our realizing. Perhaps if your youTube singer is leaving her tears in her unconscious mind for the sunshine to take she means that she has a generally happy and/or well-adjusted disposition that this sadness won't tarnish.
As for personal experience, I have had 'eureka' moments when I wasn't actively (in a mental sense) seeking a solution to a problem. I know my mind works when it is 'off' too because I have woken from a seemingly peaceful slumber to have one of these moments. Even a science teacher in middle school instructed the class to read every test question before answering any because the mind is always working. If that is the unconscious mind working, I don't know. I think that according to Freud that would be closer to the surface, but it's not like Freud could prove his theories.
And the mind is different than the brain. I attribute involuntary or reflexive activities like breathing or the heart's works or blinking an eye to physical sources like sensations and chemical reactions. Thoughts and emotions are less easily defined and more linked to the theoretical mind. Though there is a mind-body connection as far as I'm concerned.
well each person has a conscious that hold all actions in life. that sometimes explain some peoples perplexing behaviors.
