“Man is a product of the Mind and all types of mental activities are native to its functioning. Your thoughts, ideas, opinions, judgments; capacities to analyze, calculate, infer, and prove through reasoning, are some of the main actions of the Mind.
When you do mathematics, it is your Mind that is at work. When you think and plan a work schedule, it is your Mind that is at work. When you analyze a situation, build up reasonings, explain, and infer it is your Mind that is at work.
But, when you are angry, it is not your Mind that is angry. When you are depressed, it is not your mind that is depressed. Your Mind tries to persuade you not to get angry or get depressed… it is your Vital Energy that is the source of such emotions.
The Mind is something higher and intrinsically a greater faculty than the Vital Energy. As man is the true representative of the Mind, the animal characterizes the Vital Energy, albeit it also possesses an underdeveloped mind…
The Human Mind has several hierarchies or levels. There is the Intuitive Mind, Illumined Mind, Thinking Intellectual Mind, Mechanical Mind, Physical Mind, and several others. Each part of the Mind functions within a well-defined boundary.This article mentions your favorite

An intuitive Mind is something that can perceive without following the usual thought process of receiving, reasoning, and evaluating, followed by rejecting or accepting. This part of our mind has the capacity to receive direct knowledge. Most often, it is the secret of a scientist, an original thinker, or even anyone who can conceive a creative idea or an inventive thought. Here, the Intuitive Mind is at play.
The Illumined Mind has the inherent capacity to recognize a higher truth when it comes across one; it need not analyze or evaluate to accept it. Doubt is also an innate characteristic of the Mind. It automatically scans all the information that it receives for rigorous scrutiny in the light of reason. Doubt is as much an asset for the Mind as it is an impediment. For, the Mind through Doubt can only scrutinize whatever evidence it already has in store and it is inherently inclined to reject any new or unfamiliar idea. A thought, a theory, or a possibility, if it does not conform to its already stored data, is dismissed instantly. Doubt applies the same mechanism for all its judgments. What does not conform to its own recognized information automatically gets rejected.
But, fortunately for Man, there is this supra-rational part of the Mind that takes a more liberal view and does not outright dismiss new possibilities but applies a higher intelligence to judge before rejecting or accepting them. This is where the Illumined Mind comes into action.
