Affirmations

Now many people use in their practice of self-tuning, creating positive attitudes technique affirmations. Every second (and perhaps every) book on practical psychology, esoterica contains a chapter on similar methods of self-hypnosis. 'I am successful', 'I am rich', 'I've got everything goes', 'People I love and value', etc. etc. Here are some examples of such formulas meditating. There are many recommendations of how, when and how many affirmations in 'accept'.

The best advice given the reservation that affirmations need to say deliberately, rather than automatically. It is close. But realize that? Our minds, like onion, consists of layers of different views, ideas, installations. Self-knowledge (as the process of getting rid of the cargo complex, and stereotypes that govern our lives and not give us their own decisions) is in the awareness of the existence and content of such layers. Must understand, to grasp how the belief at the moment I headed there and where it came from.

Then a layer of husk is removed, revealing a deeper 'record'. Affirmation – is, in essence, creating a new layer of plants, beliefs, attitudes. Hope that it will suppress the underlying, tried and tested over the years the layers is small. For some time, affirmations can be effective, but then comes the conflict. And the stronger the affirmation differs from the previous established attitudes, the stronger will be the conflict. For example, a person who was convinced from childhood that he was a loser, so it's been sitting in my subconscious, began to repeat that he is successful, will see the first change for the better, but then there will be strong reversals even worse state of mind, and then life's circumstances. This is a hint that we should get rid of old records (aware of their existence and content), and then make new ones. Thus, the affirmation is only useful in one case: if it fills the installation of a blank slate, a blank area of the mind in other settings, unoccupied cell. Creating new layers of belief, or plants – the path of mindfulness, the way to internal conflicts.

Plato

Plato establishes the distinction between two worlds, intelligible and the sensible one. Leaving of this estimated it will organize its philosophical system. The intelligible world is known as the world of the ideas, that is, is a reality where if they find the ideas or the forms that are the warranting elements of the knowledge. The sensible world is known as material world in it finds you copy if them of the ideas. In the platonic conception the man is constituted of the accidental union between body and soul. clicking through. This has affinity with the world of the ideas and that one with the material world. Additional information is available at Gina Ross.

The soul according to it preexists in the world of the ideas, that is, it is of same nature that the ideas. Its function was to contemplate the ideas, however, it is outside disconcentrated to incorporated in a body in order to purificar itself. When treating on the knowledge, Plato, affirms that the knowledge is reminiscncia, that is, memory of the ideas. The man when coming back its look toward a material object it remembers the idea of that object, therefore these they do not pass of you copy of the ideas. The truth is reached by means of the overcoming of the obstacles of the corporal nature (the passions and the vices), as the soul is of same nature of the ideas, only it is capable to reach the truth, therefore this if finds in the intelligible world. So that the man wins the obstacles hinder that it to reach the truth. He makes if necessary the purificao of the man who happens by means of the process of ascese (mortificao) of the body. So that the man if purifique are basic that he disdains all the pleasures of the body, therefore is by means of the overcoming of that the soul will reach true objects of the knowledge.
