Dear friends,
all the clutters of worry and fear, emotion and drama in our lives- they appear to be major illusions of no real basis and we realize this sometimes when we occasionally manage to see through. They are however excellent tools to extract vast amounts of energies from us.
When I glimpse from a high angle, it keeps coming back into my mind, how little and unsignificant this life experience of yours and mine is and that by the time you'll have shed your body, you will soon look back at life as a quite short, bad and confusing experience and soon after it will be as if it never happened.
I've come to understand that incarnations of beings are not much more than projections thereof. In other words, one's consciousness seems to be like a cake, split into many pieces and placed in many bodies throughout many periods in time. I believe these have been called "aspects" and in some aware cultures, a person is looked upon as an "aspect" of [name of the spirit consciousness].
I made the connection while reading Robert Bruce's book about astral projection, where he explains that in OBE's people never leave their body, but they create a duplicate of themselves that is projected onto a higher dimension and when this duplicate returns to the physical body, memories from the double are downloaded into the physical mind (only few people succeed with that, and reason why all the rest think they never had OBE's).
The same concept appears to be the case with the higher self, better called the "original self" who itself is split into many parts of itself, incarnated in many bodies at multiple points in history, at once.
It is clear to me that one day all these aspects/copies of ourselves will merge again with the original-self.
So here we are, experiencing life as a copy of a copy of a copy of the copy of our original self, which would make life quite insignificant, wouldn't it? :rolleyes:
peace
