Have you ever wonder where thoughts come from? They originate as waves or music within your subconscious mind, and your conscious mind translates it into a language you can understand. 90% of your day to day activities are governed by your subconscious mind, which means the thoughts you develop have 90% influence of the subconscious. A filter called paradigm was developed by the time you reach 7 years old, and this filter was designed by the environment you were in for the first seven years. You, as a child had no power over this filter, as you were not able to govern your life by yourself. If you grew up in a wealthy family, the filter will have that characteristics, and same applies for a person from a not so wealthy family.
This filter called paradigm decides what should arise in the conscious mind, and that pattern is what governs your day to day life. Spirituality is all about helping yourself understand the mind, and lead a better and prosperous life. It is not some witchcraft or some voodoo shit, despite it comes under the category of parapsychology, where one loses their way from the normal psychology and enters into the twilight zone. Without proper guidance for the subconscious mind, one can not achieve a prosperous mindset, which in turn would lead to a prosperous and wealthy life. The sad part is, one person is only aware about the 10% of conscious mind, but have no power over the subconscious, look around you, do you have control?
The idea behind the Zen Mind series is to help trigger signals from your conscious mind to the subconscious mind. Subconscious mind is like a blue print which governs your life, and by birth you have accumulated a gift to have a small influence over the subconscious. By forcefully feeding your subconscious mind through your conscious mind, the right ingredients, you can build on top of the already existing blueprint. There is no such things as poverty, only a lack of wealth or material riches. Which means the blueprint is designed such a way that it will attract a smaller quantity of wealth. By feeding the right kind of input signals to the subconscious mind, you can improve the blueprint in your subconscious mind, to travel from the lower spectrum of wealth to a higher spectrum of wealth.
