When the mind is turned towards the Divine and the Truth and feels and responds to that only or mainly, it can be called a psychic mind – it is something formed by the influence of the psychic being on the mental plane.

The spiritual mind is a mind which, in its fulness, is aware of the Self, reflecting the Divine, seeing and understanding the nature of the Self and its relations with the manifestation, living in that or in contact with it, calm, wide and awake to higher knowledge, not perturbed by the play of the forces. When it gets its full liberated movement, its central station is very usually felt above the head, though its influence can extend downward through all the being and out-ward

through space.
