What is the meaning of the conscious mind and the subconscious mind?
To understand the meaning of conscious and subconscious minds we must know the precise meaning of the words body and mind.What is body?The body is the isotonic component of the skeletal muscular system. Please note that we can neither feel nor control any of the other systems.What is mind?Mind is the isometric component of the skeletal muscular system. All the skeletal muscles of the body can isometrically contract and relax as a single unit called Unified Skeletal Muscle, popularly know as the mind.Since Isometric contraction can't bring about any movement the mind can't execute any movement. However, it can facilitate or retard a movement by adding or removing power associated with a movement.Anatomical conscious and subconscious minds:The Unified Skeletal Muscle or Mind can be divided into,1. Part below the navel / Conscious mind2. part above the navel/ Subconscious mindThus, anatomically the subconscious mind is above the conscious mind.Above the subconscious mind is the body, though not anatomically.Differences between the conscious and subconscious mind:Conscious Mind:It is obvious that the center of gravity of the conscious mind is lower than that of the sub conscious mind. Because of this conscious thoughts have lesser chances of getting converted into actions. Therefore they remain as pure thoughts i.e. these thoughts don't have an isotonic component necessary for movement.Subconscious mind:Thoughts are more blurred in the subconscious mind than in the conscious mind due to the following reasons.1. The center of gravity of this part of the USM/ Subconscious Mind is higher and therefore the thoughts in it have greater chances of getting converted into action. Therefore, they are partially bound with the isotonic component/ body than conscious thoughts.2. Since there is just one body for all thoughts thoughts in the subconscious mind are more crowded than in the conscious mind.3. Unwanted thoughts keep threatening to manifest as action leading to motor emotions viz. fear and anger.The aim of consciousness is to conserve energy at rest. It is very obvious that the conscious mind is the more efficient of the two because,1. It keeps the center of gravity lower2. It keeps the Isotonic component/ body at restThus sub conscious mind is the sub efficient mind.Subconscious mind the culprit in all mental disorders:1. It is the more active because of the higher center of gravity2. Thoughts in it are over crowded.3. Thinking is involuntary and not under our control.4. Thoughts in it get converted into actions more easily. Thus it is difficult to hide bad thoughts.

Views about the nature of the unconscious mind?
I can explain with example that the subconscious mind is like a godown and all the activities and thoughts done by us are stored in this part of mind. Our nature is based on the things(thoughts) stored in the sub conscious mind. We can say that the mind-set is stored in the unconscious mind which is difficult to control by our conscious mind.
