Mind / Consciousness- Composition

22 Jan 2009
While doing Alexander technique, I found that physical organs involve an energy flow when they are focussed on. Does this mean that:
a) There is separate mind associated with each part of the body?
b) There is only one mind associated with the entire being but when focussed on one aspect/area (be it anything in life), associates itself with the aspect/area in question, being unconscious about the other aspects (that is how ordinary mind gets limited as it does not cross its limited approach.
I think (b) to be a more viable option.
I think that the limited approach can be overcome by delving into real observer ie FC.
a) FC is a mere observer or an 'intelligent observer'?
b) Does FC 'participate' in experiences in a particular incarnation or does it always stay silent just as a meek observer?
c) When total control is handed over to FC, how does life become?
One observation I have made:
While silently listening to the noises around me (sitting in garden at about 7:30 pm for 10-15 mins for about 4 days), I listened to each and every noise. Didn't participate, just listened silently (most of the time, ordinary mind was silent). One day, I had a feeling that my entire consciousness is being focussed on the noises and that it will 'shift' to the noises, making me part of it. Something in me (don't know ordinary mind or FC) held me back immidiately 'warning' me to be careful and not get carried away. I became alert and grounded again. What does this mean? Had FC participated 'intelligently' with its incarnation (me)?

My further observation tells that FC needs to have an 'observer' status (intelligent, if incarnation in question allows it to overcome the ordinary mind) and not 'participant' status because the number of experiences are so vast that if FC started participating in each, it itself will be wrecked. So, for purpose of taking and experience, its fine to have a temporary vessel in form of mind.
In afternoon, I was having intense feelings of irritation and hurt. For sometime, I felt intense feelings as they came to me. Then, I visualized that I am FC (infinite, transparent). Though the feelings didn't subside alltogether today, I felt a warmth inside me. It was a kind of 'relaxed' feeling without any botheration. All the time, I was aware of the unease I had. But still kind of relaxed. After sometime (as I have been doing healing from core essence visualizations), I felt that infinite rays (multicoloured) are radiating their warmth and strength (might be an illusion, though).
