In the way I see myself, I live in all of it, with each realm within me being equally real and, perhaps more important, being equally unreal. If I continue to believe that this earthly realm and the realms of imagination, multiple dimensions and other timelines that exist within me are separate from each other, I am missing a point. Each of these realms are simply different ways of interpreting a deeper reality that holds it all. If I continue to believe that one realm is somehow better than the other, I am still missing the point. All realms are imaginal, and are, in and of themselves, as much an extension of the consciousness that I am as is this physical reality. There is a deeper absolute reality to be seen even beyond the most profound way that my mind and soul can see into itself. There are no boundaries between any of these ways of seeing myself; there is no staircase or elevator taking me to different levels; it is an infinite continuum and the only boundaries are in my belief and awareness. That higher self is not some hidden inner me that I have to make friends with and discover, although that is one metaphor I can use as a stepping stone along the path of awareness. I already am that greater inner self, and it is not separate from me, nor is that self a boundary within me, or a sudden change in perspective to suddenly say, Oh, now I am my higher self. In my belief, it is all one self, from Ed, this human man all the way to God and beyond. There is no boundary between these selves, but a continuum that has no end, and equally a continuum that connects me with every other consciousness that also exists in a single whole and in separate selves that are getting to know each other. I dont even believe that I will one day become enlightened and suddenly know my higher self. I find that my own awareness and understanding of myself grows, sometimes starting with the simple belief that something beyond this physical is possible, then gradually becoming more and more aware that all that is possible actually exists. Awareness is sometimes a gradual move on a continuum that starts with this could be so that moves into I am this and beyond.
