What Is The Higher Self?
Are we just a body with a personality? From my understanding, we are much more than that. Each one of us has a higher aspect that resides in 6th density (think similar to the angelic realm). This higher aspect has been typically called the Higher Self. Others have also referred to it as the Oversoul. In essence, our true selves are light beings with many aspects that can have an infinite amount of incarnations.
Who and what is the Higher Self? The Higher Self is the intelligence and wisdom aspect of our true self. Ironically, the Higher Self is impersonal and does not have a ‘sense of self’ like the way our personality is. Nevertheless, it serves as a guiding aspect for the personality or ego.
Can this elusive higher self be contacted? Yes, and typically it is done through meditation or some other altered states of consciousness.
A little bit about me. I discovered that if I am thinking hard about a subject that is of a spiritual inquiry, I will sometimes receive visions that attempt to answer my queries. Mostly the visions are symbolic but with years of practice, I get clearer messages. Higher self will communicate by impulsing symbols, visions, thoughts, and words that form messages into my awareness.
An example of such higher self messages:
Many years ago, I was contemplating on the nature of my soul. What is my life purpose? Where do I come from? During meditation, I received a transmission from beyond my conscious mind. It came as a "download" , a burst of images, symbols, thoughts, and phrases. The download seemed to be received by the right hemisphere of my brain. My brain instinctively attempted to interpret the transmission before I lost it. How do I know it wasn’t my imagination? Well, firstly I do not think mostly in pictures and images. I think almost entirely in language- full sentences and paragraphs. Secondly, the transmitted images were performing a ‘dual-split’ to my consciousness. That is, the images are simultaneously overlaying my visual perception of the environment around me. Well, a ‘dual-split’ in consciousness is definitely not the usual way my mind works!
The animated visions and thoughts were so fast, I think I might have lost some vital information. Anyway, here’s my interpretation. Please understand that it was my physical brain that did this interpretation and my spiritual knowledge was limited at that time. Paraphrasing, here is the information I received:
“The transmission is attempting to correct errors or rather incompleteness within my understanding of the scheme of things. You come from a group of beings known as the Ra. Your life purpose is to be of service to others.”
Well, that transmission was over 17 years ago. My understanding on that matter has been greatly refined since then. However, the transmission was appropriate (to my level of understanding) at that time.
Over the years, these vision transmissions from Higher Self, together with the guidance of my spirit guides, angels, and the Ra have helped me to understand the dynamics of consciousness and the universe greatly. Anyone can speak with their higher self with a dedicated meditation practice and honing their channeling abilities. If you want to learn these techniques there are classes on demand through membership on my Youtube channel: Dianne's Tarot.
