9. The consciousness pervades throughout non-conscious material bodies. But we are not always aware or conscious of subtle and subtle-most bodies. Our awareness is just limited to physical body. But a few spiritual masters have vast awareness from gross to subtle bodies. And even to intangible self, the consciousness.
10. Due to our awareness of the environment, all input information gets recorded in our subtle most layers of material body. It emerges from within and motivate for further action. Many kinds of motivations attack on the mental layers at every moment. It sometimes results in internal conflict and sometimes in proper decision. Inability to carryout a decision leads one to fall in the pit of frustration and failure. Repeated conflicts and failure in life lead to maladjustment in personality. It may further lead to broken family relationships and disintegration of personality, sometimes culminating in criminal anti-social behaviours.
