This post is a continuation from my previous post here
We have seen how the mind is made up of two distinct (from the personal viewpoint) compartments. First we have to understand that the mind itself was not created by the person but by the world.
The genetic code was a big contributing factor as also the time of conception and the state of mind
of the Parents during that time. Then, after birth the environment started to mould the raw material.
Many a slights and mishaps are forgotten by the conscious, but the sub-conscious is having a perfect record of it. Whenever a similar slight or mishap occurs again our reaction to it is always tinged by the memory Submerged in the Sub-conscious long forgotten by us. Then we wonder ‘why did I react like that?’
'The Complete Man' is the one who is aware of both his conscious as well as sub-conscious functioning (Of course a complete Woman Also).
In our scripture 'The complete Man' is personified in two distinct forms.
One form is of Ravana (the King of Lanka in the epic Ramayana) - He is shown as having ten heads (fully conscious personality).
The other is Lord Ganesh (Son of Parvati and Shiva). He has an elephants head. Ten human heads equals to one Elephant head.
Both these forms are complete but, with a difference.
Can you find out?
