ALTHOUGH EVERY CHAPTER in this book is important, this one will prove to be the keystone supporting all the others.
May I suggest that you do not read this chapter hurriedly? Unless you are in a position to relax thoroughly and read slowly —and thoughtfully—it is better that you lay the book aside until you can read and absorb what you read.
I also suggest that before reading further, you reread the first few pages of Chapter 1 which gives an interpretation of riches. Then you will fully understand what I mean when I say "Grow Rich in all things while you sleep." Unless you do grow rich in all things you will not be enjoying a well balanced life.
In Chapter 3 a simple and easy-to-understand description of the Creative Mind was given. The chapter you're reading now will show you how to make full use of the powers of your Creative Mind, particularly when your conscious mind is in abeyance—asleep.
Your Creative Mind never sleeps. It is awake from the time of your birth until you leave this plane of existence. Without conscious guidance, it takes care of all the involuntary operations of your body. From the food you eat it extracts the necessary elements for blood, bone, tissue and energy. It keeps your blood in circulation. It supplies fresh oxygen to the lungs through
breathing. But these are by no means all of the responsibilities of the Creative Mind. Your Creative Mind accepts all thoughts of the conscious mind as instructions and acts upon them. The Creative Mind, as I've said several times before, can reason independently of the conscious mind. So we find that the Creative Mind is not only in charge of all of the involuntary operations in the body, but it also does the big job of following instructions from the conscious mind. And, in carrying out those instructions, it must, necessarily, be capable of reasoning.
The conscious mind is not the storehouse of memory. In fact, information contained in the conscious mind is only that which is in use. There is a constant flow of information coming from the Creative Mind—as it is needed by the conscious mind.
Here is a very simple illustration: Suppose you should engage a carpenter to do a repair job on your house. He would inspect the place, then bring with him only those tools he would need: a saw, hammer, auger, etc. He would not get a huge van and bring with him every tool and machine he had in his shop.
It is the same with your two minds. The conscious mind will bring in only the information you need to enable you to carry on the work you are doing at the
time.
