- Psychic Mind (many minds place). The One Mind. Collective consciousness. There’s something I’d call impersonal mind which is mostly collective consciousness, but mixed with psychic and other stuff. But impersonal mind is a good term if you ask me, it encapsulates everything. Then there is a survival instinct (I guess the ego) which filters most of those thoughts.
If one thinkgs about spiritual teachings, it lessens the tight hold of the ego. Anything that makes you think not about yourself or survival, can allow the mind to loosen a bit and some thoughts get filtered from other places. Including other parts of self or other selves.

It is the undifferentiated substance. The cosmic soup. Not that it comes from it, it rests there. Where does it come from, I don’t know. It is a noisy thing tha comes from the echos of all the voices. A resonant chamber. Where does it come from…innumerable causes and has no point of origin but God, if any.

Survival. It is the echo of those wanting to survive. That’s for humans, as our prime imperative is to survive. For beings who exist to serve, I guess it is to serve. As to what motivates them to serve I don’t know. On the other hand the kind of beings I’m thinking about, are not as entangled in thought and mind as us.
If the universe is suposedly evolving to perfection and we’re going along with it, then the efforts should be at correcting and eliminating imperfections. Which for me is an awful lot like survival.
But then you can ask why the push for perfection? Why do it repeatedly and endlessly? Just missing the wholeness state? If God is already complete and perfect. They say it is exploring it’s uniqueness and completeness and perfection. Evolution mostly makes sense in linear terms. So you could say ultimately the motivation is to explore all the ways of expression, and it only happens when being time-bound. Outside of time, there may be no mind, and no motivations. Anything that happens does so for different reasons and causes that what we experience.

But I liked toby’s answer. That’s pretty much how I see the mind so, it works.
