Looking IN for perfection

We are not bodies with brains, I said before. What we are and who we are is beyond our limited brains.


Saying that something is “perfect” can be taken as a sign of arrogance, even more when we are talking about ourselves.
But what we are and who we are is that, just perfect. Perfect, in this sense, doesn’t mean that we are “better” or “superior” than─ It means that we are and have the perfect equipment for accomplishing something thoroughly. In this case, for completing our function in this life.
I want to start from the outside to the inside: body-soul.
“Perfect” is the word that comes to mind when we are witnessing the incredible and elegant design of our human body.
Every single cell designed for an specific function. And the whole number of cells, trillions of cells, working in perfect synchronization to fulfill a single function: keep the body alive and fit.
And even more, there is an engine behind this orchestra. Preceding the slightest task of any cell in the body, the subconscious mind is regulating the function, without our conscious awareness of what is happening. If we had to consciously “direct” every function of our bodies, we will never be able to undertake any other activity. Just commanding our hearts to beat every second would take all our attention inside (and completely unaware of the external world).
I think this is a good point to introduce the well known triad of the mind: subconscious, conscious and superconscious.
The subconscious mind thus, is what takes care of involuntary functions (such as breathing, digesting, producing and liberating hormones, et) as well as immediate (primitive) responses: retrieve our hands from the fire, shiver when cold, sweating when hot, et.The role of the subconscious mind, is than, in short to “take care of our organic business” and granting us free time for more important endeavors.


Now, here comes a very good question: if the conscious mind do not take role over the subconscious tasks, than who???
There is enough evidence that this is not so, that involuntary activities are not managed by our conscious efforts. Nevertheless, automatic reactions and functions do take place in our bodies (including the capacity to dream, associative memory and sudden insight)
