If we're speaking about attention there's not enough bandwidth. That bottleneck is something like 120 bits per second. Something relatively simple like listening to one person speak takes up roughly half that bandwidth. Being cognizant of what's going on in the subconscious would be like trying to run Niagara Falls through a garden hose. Another way to think about it is it would be like trying to display all the processing of an app on a smart phone in a fraction of a second instead of just displaying the end result of the app's processing.

I suppose one way to look at spirituality is being aware those subconscious subroutines exist and over time and through spiritual practices slowly rewriting and optimizing them.
