→Auto-suggestions
Auto-suggestions- it is really faith in a mental form - act both on the subliminal and the subconscient. In the subliminal they set in action the powers of the inner being, its occult power to make thought, will or simple conscious force effective on the body - in the subconscient they silence or block the suggestions of death and illness (expressed or unexpressed) that prevent the return of health. They help also to combat the same things (adverse suggestions) in the mind, vital, body consciousness. Where all this is completely done or with some completeness, the effects can be very remarkable.<ref>http://incarnateword.in/sabcl/24/transformation-of-the-physical-x#p107</ref>
==Ahamkara/Ahankara==
The lower self is in bondage to its past; the higher is lord of the past, the present and the future. So the will of the lower self is born of ''ahankara'' and limited by ''ahankara'', but the will of the higher self is beyond ''ahankara'' and cannot be limited by it. <ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwsa/07/the-need-of-the-moment#p2</ref>
Under the conditions of mind, life & body, ahankara is born, the subjective or objective form of consciousness is falsely taken for self-existent being, the body for an independent reality & the ego for an independent personality; the one loses itself in us in its multiplicity & when it recovers its unity, finds it difficult, owing to the nature of mind, to preserve its play of multiplicity. Therefore when we are absorbed in world, we miss God in Himself; when we seek God, we miss Him in the world. Our business is to break down & dissolve the mental ego & get back to our divine unity without losing our power of individual & multiple existence in the universe. <ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwsa/12/the-entire-purpose-of-yoga#p10</ref>
