Higher
self or Higher selves or something else entirely?

An
Introduction.
Although
I was introduced to the concept of the 'higher
self' many years ago and at that time in our evolution although
it seemed reasonable it also, even then, contradicted what we
knew from direct experience. A single being / energy form that
you can connect to that represents all your higher aspects is
from our experience a very limiting concept as it does not
represent the truth as well as it might. So here we want to
try and give you a broader understanding based on our own
experiences.
What
is our experience of the Higher Self?
As
our goal has been to resolve all forms of separation within
all forms of ALL THAT WE ARE on all levels, dimensions and
existences, then we have been steadily introduced to many,
many soul form parts of ourselves as part of this process. We
are talking here specifically about parts of ourselves that
are existing within higher or finer energy realms, not soul
fragments that have been occupying a vehicle (as we do here)
or intermediate forms. In all I have encountered over eighty
of these higher forms that together could be said to make up
my complete soul form. All of these are from soul culture
environments (levels were there is the ability to create other
souls).
So,
I could possibly say that I have more than eighty 'higher
selves'. However I prefer to view them as soul forms of myself
that are independent exploring different environments for
various reasons. Each of these forms will have different
experience and different goals making them by and large
somewhat different from each other.
Does
everyone have a higher self?
Although
we did originally think that the higher self was perhaps
another facet of lightwork fantasies that arise when you
manifest what you believe in. We have since come to an
understanding that not all soul fragments have a higher self.
When a soul form initially projects a soul fragment into this
level of existences, it may or may not also project a higher
self. Although we feel that most soul fragments have higher
selves we feel that this is more a function of the soul
qualities and skills of the pure soul form. If the pure soul
form projecting the fragment does not have certain skills,
qualities or approaches then a higher self would be essential
to help the soul fragment during it's explorations here. Some
don't need the help that could be offered by a higher self
fragment and are therefore not sent with one.
For
us a higher self is a support / guidance soul fragment with
the agenda to help soul fragments projected from the same pure
soul form within this soul fragment sphere.
Why
are YOU here?
We
have to ask you the question; why has a soul form projected
part of itself (i.e. what you think of as you) into this
reality in the first place? Well for the most part you will
find that it has done this to help it gain more experience of
ITSELF - to help it understand and to perhaps move it beyond some
limitation, trauma, challenge, conditioning, repeating
pattern, stuck perception and so on? This is why you are
experiencing this existence here? To follow an agenda set up
by a soul form part so that IT (we repeat IT), through YOUR
experience may come to a greater understanding that will help
IT. Are you following this? You were projected here to help a
soul form overcome some limitation it has been unable to
understand and or resolve on the HIGHER level it lives. That
is YOU are IT'S hope in IT'S quest to gain more KNOWING
because it cannot!!!! Why? Well higher realities are much more
flowing, harmonious and in the moment, while this one is
designed to;
To offer you opportunities to have experiences outside of the
parameters of your soul. This is great for helping your soul
form gain experience in areas that are outside of it's soul
quality restrictions or current range of existential
experiences that it has had since it's creation. Hence you may
have had large numbers of incarnations here and other similar
places to help you / IT to gain new experiences and new
understandings that it can then try and incorporate into
itself. This is where the 7 rays have some basis in truth.
Your soul is a mixture of energies that gives you your souls
qualities and limitations. While the part here can come with a
completely different mixture helping this little part have
different experiences to what the higher soul form can, and in
this way help the higher soul form move on.
This reality is designed to reflect back to you WHO YOU ARE
and what YOU ARE PRESENTING, so you have more chance to see
YOURSELF. This is something that does not happen (or is very
poor) on higher energy levels. So, when you have had enough
incarnations here to gain new experiences that are lacking in
your soul form part then you may have a special incarnation
and come with the same ray or energy mixture here as you hold
in your soul form which would amplify enormously all the
patterns and limitations of your soul qualities, while at the
same time you will hold new experiences and movements gained
from incarnations here to help this higher form move on.
What
we recommend?
To
help you have presented to you a reality which is more useful
and information pertinent then you must put down all
preconceptions and expectations. You cannot make the
assumption that information already presented is the truth.
All the information presented on this level at this time is in
flux and if presented by truly spiritually transforming people
then it will be changing as regularly as they change. Ancient
or old information (more that say 5-10 years old) is in this
day and age very much past its sell by date.
We
would recommend that you try working with an invocation that
allows possibilities. That includes phrases such as;
-
Take
me beyond all of my assumptions,
-
Help
me realize all the misconceptions that I hold to so that I
may move into better ones,
-
I
am interested in the truth, the whole truth and nothing
less than this, so give me everything that I need to be
able to accept this level of wisdom,
-
Do,
whatever is necessary to release me from faulty
conceptions, belief systems, limited mind sets, knowings,
spiritual understandings and so on so that I can embrace
fully a greater depth of truth.
-
Give
me Beings, energies, tools and resources to work with that
will help me achieve all the above as soon as possible.
-
Take
me beyond all my illusions that all parts of me are
holding to on all levels, and do this now.
Basically,
open yourself to possibilities. Be prepared to let go of your
favourite spiritual truth to move into the unknown. That is
actually what being on a true spiritual path is about - moving
into the unknown, that is you are transforming and changing
and you cannot actually do that in any really deep way if you
are already holding onto what you consider solid spiritual
truths. Many spiritual paths (if not all of them) facilitate
debilitation as they will help people reach a certain level of
awareness or realization and then hold them there. This causes
you to suffer from what we would call spiritual paradigm
lock.
