| was wondering if this idea of instructing the subconscious is not in some way a paradox and | 72 THE FEAR OF LOVING |
| paradox and may not lead to forcing the subconscious, instead of allowing us to realize what is | 72 THE FEAR OF LOVING |
| you may direct these desires to your own subconscious, strengthening the healthy aspect of your psyche, and | 72 THE FEAR OF LOVING |
| ignores the existence and the power of the subconscious mind will take such knowledge on a superficial | 72 THE FEAR OF LOVING |

| in our time of accepting and exploring the subconscious is indicative of the steadily increasing general development | 72 THE FEAR OF LOVING |
| friendships, or in other human relationships. In your subconscious, the following reactions take place: since the child | 73 COMPULSION TO RECREATE AND OVERCOME CHILDHOOD HURTS |
| a child, is indeed the tragedy that your subconscious still feels it to be. The only tragedy | 73 COMPULSION TO RECREATE AND OVERCOME CHILDHOOD HURTS |
| past. You have no idea how preoccupied your subconscious is with the process of reenacting the play | 73 COMPULSION TO RECREATE AND OVERCOME CHILDHOOD HURTS |
| not yet reached certain depths of their unexplored subconscious, this may sound quite preposterous and contrived. However | 73 COMPULSION TO RECREATE AND OVERCOME CHILDHOOD HURTS |
| findings how potent are the workings of your subconscious mind, how shrewdly it goes about its destructive | 73 COMPULSION TO RECREATE AND OVERCOME CHILDHOOD HURTS |
| scream. Does that also work between the different subconscious minds of two separate human beings? Does one | 73 COMPULSION TO RECREATE AND OVERCOME CHILDHOOD HURTS |
| minds of two separate human beings? Does one subconscious hear the screaming of the other? Is that | 73 COMPULSION TO RECREATE AND OVERCOME CHILDHOOD HURTS |
| That is why I always say that your subconscious affects the subconscious of the other person. You | 73 COMPULSION TO RECREATE AND OVERCOME CHILDHOOD HURTS |
| I always say that your subconscious affects the subconscious of the other person. You go through life | 73 COMPULSION TO RECREATE AND OVERCOME CHILDHOOD HURTS |
| hearing, seeing, smelling, tasting. That is why the subconscious of one affects the subconscious of the other | 73 COMPULSION TO RECREATE AND OVERCOME CHILDHOOD HURTS |
| is why the subconscious of one affects the subconscious of the other. So often, people feel unjustly | 73 COMPULSION TO RECREATE AND OVERCOME CHILDHOOD HURTS |
| even two or three minutes, between one's own subconscious and the subconscious of the other person? Sometimes | 73 COMPULSION TO RECREATE AND OVERCOME CHILDHOOD HURTS |
| three minutes, between one's own subconscious and the subconscious of the other person? Sometimes you see the | 73 COMPULSION TO RECREATE AND OVERCOME CHILDHOOD HURTS |
| intellectually, but by the time you order your subconscious to do something, it is already in revolt | 73 COMPULSION TO RECREATE AND OVERCOME CHILDHOOD HURTS |
| it is not a question of ordering your subconscious. You cannot order it. That is impossible. As | 73 COMPULSION TO RECREATE AND OVERCOME CHILDHOOD HURTS |
| deceive you, so that you deceive yourself. The subconscious can only be reeducated by the slow and | 73 COMPULSION TO RECREATE AND OVERCOME CHILDHOOD HURTS |
| superimpositions can you understand the reason why your subconscious is often so stubborn. If it continues to | 73 COMPULSION TO RECREATE AND OVERCOME CHILDHOOD HURTS |
| your words, and even in your thoughts, the subconscious does not respond to such discipline. Truce, as | 73 COMPULSION TO RECREATE AND OVERCOME CHILDHOOD HURTS |
| of letting go, a fear of letting the subconscious rise, a fear of going into the world | 76 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS (Compiled from Private Sessions and Earlier Lectures) |
| lends itself less to rationalization. You see, your subconscious struggle against this path is always busy finding | 76 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS (Compiled from Private Sessions and Earlier Lectures) |

| against constant defeat -- another supposed fact your subconscious often takes for granted. Your real self knows | 77 SELF-CONFIDENCE: ITS TRUE ORIGIN AND WHAT PROHIBITS IT |

| so that it will be directed to the subconscious. Broadly speaking, this would be the way. The | 79 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| comes more and more to the fore, the subconscious resistance, being so afraid of discovery, may produce | 79 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| and its bond with you may cause your subconscious to be impressed by it, so that a | 80 COOPERATION, COMMUNICATION, UNION |
| perceives it through the detour of your own subconscious. QUESTION: But is it possible that the actual | 80 COOPERATION, COMMUNICATION, UNION |
