When you completely unclutch, tremendous awareness, energy and intelligence happens in your system. Energy can never be produced. It is not something you can create. It just continuously happens in every being. If you take the stand that you are a body, you are on the plane of matter on the physical plane. You are living only in the gross body.
Your desires are very physical, at the gross level. Your fears are related to the physical level fears like the basic fear of death, etc. If you think you are the mind, you live in the mental plane. Your desires, fears and everything are related to the mind, like the desire for name and fame, fear of losing your identity, etc. In the mental layer, both desires and fears are subtle.
In the spiritual or being level, there won’t be any desires or fears. You radiate energy continuously. Whichever plane you are in, your presence radiates that energy.
7. Myth of body-mind
Our mind creates our body
Not only yoga6, but also medical science, confirms that our body constantly rejuvenates and replaces itself. We are constantly replacing ourselves. This is the first truth.
The second important truth is proven not only by yoga and ayurveda7, but also by biology and medical science, that our mind creates our body. Our body is directly guided by our mind.
There is a book called ‘The Biology of Belief’ written by scientist, Dr. Bruce Lipton8. After thirty years of research in the field of biology, he came up with some very powerful conclusions. He clearly proves that our positive and negative emotions control our body in a bigger way than even DNA or cells do. Our body is guided by our beliefs, faith, and our positive and negative emotions.
He says that even our body structure can be altered by our mind. Step by step, he proves very clearly that all our genetic, physical and mental problems are created by our faith alone.

Research has also been done with children who were separated from their biological parents from birth. The children grew up thinking that the parents who had adopted them were their real parents. In these cases, the children even expressed all the symptoms of the hereditary diseases of the foster parents!
