Again, that doesn't make one necessarily better or anything, just that there is a fundamental distinction of general to specific. They serve different functions. Imagine a circle within a circle within a circle.
"The infinity of the spirit is an even greater realization than the infinity of consciousness, for consciousness which has been disciplined by will and faith is that consciousness which may contact intelligent infinity directly."
So again, it really just depends on context.
So it requires quite a bit of discernment.
For some reason it's for me really difficult to envision the mind as not tributary to the spirit. I feel it's my own limited view and really difficult to let it go. But I would agree that in third density the mind being the chooser, reigns in major way. Absolutely it depends on context.
