Every mental activity has its own momentum, and the art of skillfully operating the mechanism of our Mind requires us to understand the structure and the dynamics of our consciousness sufficiently well that can allow us to operate this mechanism with elegance and finesse.

It must be an obvious insight that the real functional mechanism of the Mind is in the Subconscious and the role of the Conscious is to trigger, stimulate, regulate, and tune into the Subconscious.
