Deepermind Glossary
ALLOWING AND
RELEASING
Allowing means you do not immediately
suppress it or justify a inner experience. This allows such emotions
as anger to be experienced, so that the emotion is able to dissipate.
Emotional energy is dynamic. It begins, engages and then
releases. If you stop this arc, the energy can get stuck, or loop.
Now it does not release. As you feel the emotion reach it peak, you
then tell your self, to let it go. Imaging the emotions flow out
your finger tips.

ALIGNMENT
Alignment occurs when the various aspects of inner
life—awareness, energy, emotion, thought, and meaning—work together
instead of pulling against one another. In alignment, effort drops and
clarity replaces struggle. Thought, emotion, intention and action
point in the same direction.

ANXIETY
Anxiety arises when a large amount of energy is present
while awareness is absorbed in the mind. The mind attempts to predict,
control, or resolve uncertainty, keeping energy active rather than
allowing it to settle.
Introduced by Jung. Through the Unconscious Mind, the ego learns of different identities and assimilates them to form the Ego.
Describes how the consciousness narrows to focus on a particular way of viewing, and a particular things to view. You can see the world as a collection of negative things, or see the world as a fantastic collection of curious things.
AWARENESS
Awareness is the basic fact of knowing that experience
is happening. It is not thought, emotion, or sensation, but the field
in which all of those appear. Awareness does not act or judge; it
notices.

Cit (Sanskrit,
chit): awareness itself

BALANCE
Balance is a dynamic state in which no single part of
the inner system dominates the others. Sensation, emotion, thought,
impulse, and awareness each perform their function without
overwhelming the whole.

BELIEF
A belief is a thought that has been given authority
through repetition, emotion, or identification. Beliefs feel true not

them.
Selected Bible Quotes related to Deepermind.
BLOCKED ENERGY
Blocked energy is unfinished inner activation
that persists because a natural process was interrupted by resistance,
control, or avoidance. When interference relaxes, the process
completes and energy settles.
Chakras are the various types of energy that form moods. Moods are combinations of these energies. Chakras are also experiences formed though awareness, energy, emotion, sensation and meaning. A Chakra is not a physical object, such as a wheel, color, or gland. It is not a nerve center either. It not anatomy but can be associated with certain nerve center in a hazy way which can be helpful for people who like metaphysics.
CHANTING
Chanting interrupts habitual mental noise and restores
rhythm, coherence, and presence. Because the mind can hold only one
dominant thought at a time, chanting temporarily displaces mental
chatter and allows clarity to return.
Christianity is the world's largest religion with about 2.4 billion followers. That is about 30% of the world's population. Main believe is that God is love, and love is stronger than fear. Includes prayer, worship, scripture reading, confession, communion and community life.
COHERENCE
Coherence is when the inner world works together
rather than against itself. Thoughts, emotions, and actions align,
producing ease and a sense of rightness.
Related nuances in other
languages:
Prasāda (Sanskrit, pruh-SAH-duh): clarity after
confusion resolves
Stimmigkeit (German, SHTIM-ih-kite): felt sense
of fit
Everything you do, believe, say, or act out has consequences, some minor and sometimes major.
CONSCIOUSNESS
Consciousness is what enables us
to experience our life. the fact that experience exists
at all. It is the inner light that allows awareness, perception, and
knowing to occur.
The capacity to form something new by allowing existing experiences, ideas, emotions, and perception to combine together in a fresh way. If you force a creative mood for a reason, to succeed, impress or get it right, the ego is in charge, and creativity narrows. Instead allow it to form naturally by going closer to giving up, and thus allowing for it to flow. Slow breathing, gentle movement, stretching, taking a walk may help. Mentally ask questions. Chat with ChatGPT. Be curious. Chant. Give creativity the freedom to be unfinished. Alignment helps. Presence with God can open up the space.
Deepermind is a simple framework for understanding inner life by direct experience, without relying on religious belief, magical thinking, or psychological jargon. The inner life is made up of the Senses, the Ego, the Emotions, the Mind and the Soul. The emphasis is on meaning, not words.
EGO
The ego is the identity-forming function that organizes
experience around “me.” It provides continuity and personal narrative
but is constructed from thought rather than direct experience.
Related nuances in other languages:
Ahaṁkāra (Sanskrit, uh-HUM-kah-ruh):
the “I-making” function
EMOTION
An emotion is a whole-body inner state that shapes how
life is experienced for a time. Emotions are energetic processes meant
to rise, move, and settle.
EMOTIONAL CYCLE
An emotional cycle is the natural arc of an
emotion from activation through completion. When allowed to complete,
ease returns naturally.
ENERGY
Inner energy is the felt vitality moving through
sensations, emotions, and motivation. Free-flowing energy feels alive;
obstructed energy feels tense or heavy.
Evil is simply something we do not like. It interferes with our life. If someone hurts you it is an attack on life itself. If someone robs you it is an attack on your prosperity. You don't like being attacked.
You can see evil is a subtraction of what you want. And it is an addition of what you don't want. You want to feel good, have friends, do what you want to do.. When things go good, you feel joy.
Being with rather than standing back to analyze. The emphasis is on presence, receptivity connection and felt meaning. It is feeling more contextual rather than linear. It senses how things belong together. It is based on multiple truths, often recognizes meaning before explanation. and thus feels intuitive, relational and emotionally intelligence Then it uses logic. Everyone is a mixture of the feminine and masculine in different degrees.
In Deepermind, the word God means the source of deepest intelligence, love and wisdom. God exists in the universe as guiding patterns of natural law. God is like gravity, magnetic fields, invisible yet powerful. God is also consciousness and the spark of life within us.
GRACE
Grace is support, clarity, or healing that arises when
resistance drops. It is not earned or forced; it appears when the
inner system stops interfering with life. It also means feeling
oneness with God.
Related nuances in other languages:
Prasāda (Sanskrit, pruh-SAH-duh): settled clarity
Ānanda (Sanskrit, AH-nun-duh): quiet well-being
IDENTIFICATION
Identification is when something happens and you take it personally,
allowing it to define who you are. Instead of automatically reacting,
you can pause and observe how your ego, mind, and emotions respond.
Recognizing that others speak from their own experiences and
interpretations allows you to seek clarity without emotional
defensiveness.
INNER WORLD
It is the total lived
experience inside a person. The inner world contains the Senses, the
Ego, the Emotions, and the Mind (SEEM) and also the Soul. The
mind when it is idle seems to be directed by unconscious mind. There
are other parts of the inner world, such as memory, which works mostly
in the background.
Insight is a sudden clear understanding of something you did not see before. It happens when you recognize a pattern, belief, or reaction that was operating automatically.
Intuition is a quick inner knowing that happens without step-by-step reasoning. It arises from rapid pattern recognition in the brain and often appears as a feeling or quiet sense of direction before you can explain why.
Related nuances in other languages:
Nous (Greek,
nooss): direct knowing
In Deepermind the masculine refers to a mode (not a gender) where structure, direction, anticipation and action dominate. In masculine mood a person tends to stand back, define and organize. It seeks structure through separation, sequencing and cause-and-effect. The result of using masculine energy is more goal-oriented, and linear. What could go wrong? What should we do next? It is interested in risk management and problem solving. Everyone is a mixture of the feminine and masculine in different degrees.
MEANING
Meaning is the understanding or feeling that arises in you when you
encounter a word, event, or experience. When you point to the
moon, the word “moon” is not the object itself, but the round,
cratered body in the sky that the word directs your attention toward.
MEDITATION
Meditation is placing awareness intentionally and
allowing experience to unfold without interference. It changes
relationship to thought rather than stopping thought. It allows one to
step back an observe one's self and the world. Observation can
be considered as being scientific if done correctly. Meditation can be
used for observation of the inner mind.
MENTAL ILLNESS
Mental illness involves persistent dysregulation
of thought, emotion, perception, or behavior that interferes with
functioning and well-being. Often caused by extensive consciousness-existing
in the SEEMS instead of the soul.
The part of us that does out thinking. We hear it speak with feeling, and sense of self from the ego. When idle, the mind can take information from the subconscious, and produce a great deal of noise. We can turn the noise off by chanting and other techniques.
The idle dialogue is the mind’s undirected chatter—commentary, judgment, rehearsal, and worry that serves no immediate function. In well trained minds, the mind is generally quiet unless tasked.
The managed dialogue is the mind’s directed chatter when the mind has been tasked with a question. The question can come from the something in the outer world, the ego, the emotions or the soul. The mind when engaged in a task can ask further questions.
MINDFULNESS
Mindfulness is awareness remaining truly awake
within daily life, noticing experience, including little things,
without judgment or reaction.
A mood is the background emotional and energetic tone through which experience is filtered. It persists longer than emotions and quietly shapes perception and meaning. In Deepermind, a mood reflects where awareness rests and how energy is organized and it softens when observed rather than identified with.
In Deepermind, music is organized vibration that enters the inner world directly, bypassing ordinary thought and language. It works so deeply because its structure mirrors how the brain itself operates: rhythm aligns timing circuits, melody organizes expectation and memory, and harmony integrates multiple signals into a single coherent experience. By synchronizing perception, emotion, and awareness, music quiets inner dialogue, moves emotional energy, and restores coherence to the inner system without requiring explanation or belief.
OBSERVER
The observer is the mechanism inside
you who observes. We hear our mind, but we are not the mind. We
feel our ego, but we are not the ego. The same goes for the senses,
and emotions. The best observations come from the soul during a
meditation where we step away from ourselves.

languages:
Sākṣin (Sanskrit,
SAHK-shin): the witness
PRESENCE
Presence is awareness resting with what is happening
now, without distraction or resistance. It also refers to the
presence of God, and where there is love, feelings of truth and wisdom
within an elevated mood.
Related nuances in other languages:
Présence (French, pray-ZONSS): being fully here
PRAYER
Prayer in Deepermind is the intentional turning of
awareness toward truth, guidance, and alignment, allowing the inner
system to reorganize naturally.
Psychology is the study of the thoughts, emotions, beliefs, and behaviors that shape human experience. In Deepermind, psychology examines the patterns within the mind, while awareness observes those patterns and allows them to change.
RECURSIVE INQUIRY
Recursive inquiry is the process of refining
understanding by revisiting experience repeatedly, each time with
greater clarity and less distortion. It reduces tension rather than
increasing it. In computer programming it means calling the same
function over and over again until enough accesses bring the required
accuracy.
Related nuances in other languages:
Viveka
(Sanskrit, vih-VAY-kuh): discernment
Aletheia (Greek,
uh-LEE-thee-uh): truth revealed
An acronym for senses, ego, emotion, and mind. Our conscious awareness can sit in these areas. But it is far better to allow consciousness to sit in the soul, that part of us that observes.
Semantics is the study of how meaning is created, assigned, and understood through symbols, especially words.
General semantics is the study of how humans create meaning, react, and behave based on the symbols and language they use, and how often we confuse those symbols with reality itself. Words are like a map. They are not the territory. It begins with a simple but profound insight: the word is not the thing. Our nervous system responds not to raw reality, but to our internal maps of reality, which are built from words, labels, memories, and assumptions. When these maps are inaccurate, outdated, or emotionally charged, our reactions become distorted even if our intentions are good.
SEXUAL ENERGY
In Deepermind terms, sexual energy stems from the unconscious mind,
and rise when connection, attraction, vitality and creativity
converge. It is one of the strongest currents. It is fueled by
sensation, chemistyr, imagination and emotional resonance. It
reduces discursive thinking, weakens planning, soften moral
deliberation and seff-reflection. If integrated, sexual energy does
not turn off the soul; instead it becomes informed by it.
SOUL
The soul, also called the true self, the I behind the I,
the overall manager of the brain, and even the top brain cell. It is
awareness resting in itself as the observer. It does not narrate or
defend; it provides clarity and wisdom. It is has access to our main
control center and thus can keep us in balance. For the spiritually
minded, the soul interfaces with the wisdom of God.
STILLNESS
Stillness is settled awareness where nothing is being
pushed, resisted, or managed.
STRESS
Stress is energy held in readiness because a demand feels
unresolved. The body stays braced, the mind stays vigilant, and ease
cannot return.
Some of the language used in Christianity is based on Old English. The phrase: "The blood of Jesus washes over you." make more sense if you know that "blood" in old English means life, and also Jesus means God in human form. So this translates to: "The life of the God in human form washes over you.
