Before I give you an example, let me summarise
Murphy’s theory.
|
The
conscious mind represents ten percent of the human
mind’s capacity. The other ninety percent is
the subconscious mind.
|
The conscious mind is objective, responding
to the senses. Sight, hearing, taste, feel… you know
the story.
The subconscious mind is subjective and responds to the
objective thoughts of the conscious mind.
The subconscious mind however, controls
your life, and does not need any assistance from the conscious
mind.
Even when you are asleep, it continues to control your life.
That’s why you still breathe even though your conscious
mind is asleep.
But
the subconscious is subject to the thoughts of the
conscious mind, and responds according to your thoughts. |
|
But your conscious thoughts are also able
to interfere with the function of the subconscious mind.
Now take this verse:
Pass no judgement, and you will not be judged. For as
you judge others so will yourselves be judged, and whatever
measure you deal out to others will be dealt back to you.
(Mathew 7:1-2)
Murphy’s interpretation.
To judge is to think, to arrive at a mental verdict or conclusion
in your mind.
The thought you have about the other person is your thought,
because you are thinking it.
Your thoughts are creative. Therefore you actually create
in your own experience what you think and feel about the
other person.
The suggestion you give to another, you give to yourself
as well, because your mind is the creative medium.
In applying standards and criteria to others,
you create those standards and criteria in your subconscious,
which then applies them to you.
Your subconscious mind is impersonal and
unchanging, neither considering persons, nor respecting
religious affiliations or institutions of any kind.
It is neither compassionate nor vindictive.
The way you think, feel and act towards
others returns at last upon yourself.
