Unconscious limitations

Unconscious associations between an external event and an involuntary internal reaction. Fears and phobias are examples of this.

The idea being conveyed here is that we must clear our minds of both unconscious or irrational limitations (traumas, phobias, etc.) and conscious (rational) ones, which come from culture and our belief systems and make up the “archive of ignorance.”
