Even the current official stream of psychology and biology recognizes that, in addition to consciousness, humans also have a subconscious, which is now referred to by the lesser-known term "unconscious." Many processes occur in the brain and especially in the human spirit/soul that a person is not aware of and does not control. Even official psychology recognizes that conscious processes in the brain account for only about 1 to 5 percent; the rest of the information in the brain is unconscious. And we are not even talking about the energetic spirit, the energetic component of a human being, which incomparably surpasses the biological brain in terms of the amount of information.
Consciousness, conscious processes in our consciousness, in our brain, can be called the ego.
But how to tune into our unconscious? If we tune into our "not-self", we tune into our unconscious.
Working with your unconscious is one of the most important elements in meditation techniques. Communication between the conscious and unconscious is also important.
An important thing when working with chakras is, for example, to assign a certain task to your unconscious, to your "not-self". For example, you "tell" your "not-self" that you now want to energize this chakra.
