I Am My Higher Self
The Higher Self is powerful and very
knowledgeable, and each of us has one. We are already quite
familiar with it! It's a higher level of us or
who we are on the higher, spiritual planes. Many
people believe that all they are is their small body, their mind and
their emotions, yet the truth is actually much vaster than this. There
are many levels that go to make up who we are, much more spiritual
levels, and our higher self is one of these higher dimensional beings
that is connected intimately to us. Once we start noticing it, it
begins to pay more attention to us and sends us intuitive messages that
we can hear.
Meditation
We can access our higher self through meditation to gain an
understanding of it. If you know how to meditate, all you have to do is
speak to it, ask it to reveal itself to you and wait for a response.
The higher self feels very large and wise - it feels like another
being. Our higher self always wishes to communicate with us and will
not ignore you. We can gain an awareness of it through meditation that
we may not normally have.
The Higher Self & Ego
Some people will wonder if this is not a part of our own Ego that is
speaking to us and may doubt its existence. No one can actually prove
that the higher self exists. However, for those who often use their
intuition, they will know beyond a doubt that it is real.
How can we tell the difference between the higher self and our own ego
personality? A very good method is to write down messages or feelings
that you get from it.
It will probably not feel too real at first; you
will naturally wonder if you are imagining it. Then take this message
and don't read it back. Simply put it safely in a drawer for a week;
don't think about it or try to remember what it said. After the week is
done, take it out and read it. When you do, you will be stunned at how
insightful and intelligent the message is. You will no longer wonder if
it was merely ego coming through you. You will know beyond a doubt that
this is something real, something higher. The higher self is a part of
us
that wishes to help us towards our own ascension into a higher state.
Higher Self Consciousness
The Higher Self consciousness is
something we can use everyday. It is quite Buddhist in its approach to
life. Whereas the ego part of us is rather
selfish and self-serving, the higher self consciousness is detached,
loving and selfless. This consciousness is like the Christ
Consciousness and it wants to teach or influence us so that we make
better life decisions.
Do we want to walk the earth in a loving state?
Then we are very wise to let the higher self in closer to us and
channel it. It is very hard to completely
become the higher self whilst
living on earth, yet we can all try to take on some of its habits in
order to be more selfless ourself.
Higher Self Experience
The higher self experience is never negative. It is always a loving and
surprising thing. The energy of your higher self is much like an angel
only we have to remember it is a piece of ourself. It's frequency or
vibrations is
high and is in direct alignment with God, so it knows exactly where we
need to be at all times to be in our highest space. It always offers
guidance and never dictates that we
must
do anything. Its presence is
healing, kind and wise.
Jesus had merged with his higher self so that it was walking the earth
in him - in effect he became it -
and this is why he was so wise and knowledgeable. He told us we could
all do as he did, so we are all capable of manifesting our own higher
self much as he did.
We cannot only hear this inner voice that is us, but we can welcome it
and join with it if we wish. It has many magical qualities that will
fascinate us on the journey.
Higher Self Prayer
We can always begin with a prayer or invocation in order to call in the
presence of the higher self, yet after awhile we can just call to it
and it will be there. It is within us and is watching over us.
Such a prayer could be:
"Please Higher Self, I ask that
you come into my life more closely and
protect myself and my family at all times. I ask that you send me
inspiration and love, also wisdom to always do the right things. Please
help to make me stronger and send your wise Voice to help me at all
times.
So be it." |
The higher self is never a means to make what we want to happen in
life. We cannot use it to get a new car, or anything material, since it
is above the material plane; we are better off praying directly to God.
Yet, it is a go between and is itself aligned to God. We can ask it
questions and expect to be answered. This is not a problem at all. The
higher self has many mystical qualities and can help us in many ways.
We simply need to become more receptive and aware of it, and more
loving of those around us.
We can practice the art of detachment in any one moment. Life can
become
more synchronised when we do this, for the higher self exists outside
of time and space. It is only humans who are restricted in this
dimension and never this counterpart in a higher plane of existence.
Higher Self & Soul
The higher self is not our soul and is in fact above it. It is a higher
element of our own Lightbody. Some people feel it could be their
own sub-consciousness, yet it is more Godlike than this. Normally it
goes about its business and does not watch us a whole lot. We are
concerned with an earthly life and are not doing anything to interest
it. Yet when we begin to focus upwards, it notices immediately and
begins
to become involved with us. It will watch and endeavour to help us.
The
goal of the higher self is to merge with us, becoming very aligned with
who we are, but it will never force the
issue. It hopes that as we become more spiritual, we will discover it
on our own and want to meet it.
It has many teachings to pass on to us
like learning unconditional love. We can work with it to begin to
understand universal consciousness, we just need to reconnect with our
own loving nature. It is not difficult to be more compassionate and
genuinely caring. We begin by giving more to those who deserve it,
selflessly with an open heart.
