Abstract
Mind consists of three parts viz Conscious mind,
Sub-conscious and Unconscious mind. This fact is well known to and accepted
by scientists. Vethathirian Philosophy introduces a new concept called Super-conscious
mind into this existing framework of mind. It describes the significance of
Super-conscious mind/state which is the basic source of all mental
activities. In this article, the link between super-conscious mind with other
three parts are also discussed. This article is a preliminary attempt to
bring the Vethathirian philosophy into the scientific planes for view of
scientists and psychologists.
Key words: Super conscious mind, Repressed thoughts, Semen cells, Absolute space, Pure consciousness, Energy.

Vethathiri Maharishi, a philosopher of Tamilnadu has worked
out intensive research in the various and multiple aspects of human mind.
Though he is known to be a philosopher, it can be noticed from his works that
he was very clear about the way he was proceding i.e, scientific way of
exploring. He realized that any kind of new theories whatever exciting or
appealing it may be, will be overlooked by the scientists when it deviates from
the corridors of science.
Based on his philosophy, Human mind is classified as
follows:
1. Peripheral
mind
2. Sub-conscious
mind
3. Unconscious
mind
4. Super-conscious
mind
Peripheral mind is concerned with the day to day activities
of mind. It works with the help of senses and limbs. Peripheral mind is what we
look from outside. In simple terms, it is the reaction of mind to the external
world through senses and limbs. Without peripheral mind, there is no
perception.
Eg: reading a magazine, answering a question.
Sub-conscious mind is the storage of memories and
experiences which have been obtained by means of peripheral mind or otherwise
through perception. Sub-conscious memories and experiences are easily
recollected to conscious state. Little effort may sometimes be needed. Brain is
the key organ for the functioning of sub-conscious mind. Of course, every body
cell and brain cell is necessary for the existence and functioning of mind.
Unconscious mind, as deeply and elaborately discussed by
Sigmund Freud, is the core part of human mind that influences the human
personality. All our thoughts and experiences get stored in the unconscious
mind in addition to storing in subconscious mind. They are hardly inaccessible and
difficult to remember. Vethathiri Maharishi adds, in addition to that, all the
thoughts and experiences get stored in each and every cell of body and brain
cell especially stored strongly in semen cells. All our repressed thoughts and
experiences (that are contradictory to moral codes posed by society and painful
experiences) are contained in unconscious mind. Though every cell (gene
molecule) contains the repressed thoughts, its core and controlling center is
the semen cells (i.e., gene molecules of semen cells). According to Vethathiri
Maharishi , repressed thoughts whether it is consciously done or unconsciously
done will keep disturbing the mind and body apparently or atleast minutely.
These unconscious thoughts and experiences will get released and cause any kind
of physical or psychological disease corresponding to the intensity of the
thoughts. This process occurs precisely in appropriate time. Needless to say, a
thought will seek the help of body cells (i.e. senses and limbs) to its
materialization and execution.
Super-conscious mind – It is the point where Vethathiri
Maharishi puts forward a distinct and strong concept of mind distinguishing
himself from all philosophers, psychologists and scientists including Sigmund
Freud. Super conscious state of mind is the Basic state of mind. It is pure
state of mind, pure consciousness and the absolute space. Super conscious mind
is in the form of complete energy which is imperceptible to the level of human
perception and even to the measurement of any precise scientific instruments.
It is the source which supplies energy to the mind and physical activities.
Super conscious state of mind is the beginning point of mind and , being the
energy form, it extends itself as mind i.e. peripheral mind, sub-conscious and
unconscious mind. Mind is the continuum of super consciousness that connects and
operates all the cells of human being. Mind is the unbroken chain of energy
that emanates from super conscious state. Super conscious mind is singular and
same for every human being in the world.
