i recently have accepted the possibility that i may very well be a wanderer. there is a tiny spark of excitement resonating within myself and now, more than ever, i want to come into communication with my higher self.

i have had a search through the forums and found some interesting information on this subject, and i think i am ready to open myself for communication with my higher self.

there was something that was mentioned in one of these posts that has me very intrigued. i have read other references to this same bit of information, but now that i am sitting here and seeing the real side of this possibility, really seeing the actual reality of what it means to talk to my higher self, it has brought my attention to an odd possible paradox that i have not got my head around just yet.

anyway, the matter of which has me interested is the following in my own words.

"your higher self is yourself in the future."

now i understand that in our space/time, time is linear and all that business. i can fully understand that in other-dimensional terms how this is very much possible.

i guess my question is...

"if thats me in the future, when i am where "me" is in the future, will i be helping "me" in the past progress through my own spiritual growth? almost like a never ending circle"

this question, i know, assumes that time is linear in every frame of existence which i know isnt true. the thought just begs the question... "if i am over there, what and i doing here?" )

i feel, after writing this, somewhat exhausted which usually isnt a good sign, but i would like to know what you guys think.

(just out of curiosity do any of you get this? i find when i have to explain or express myself i often feel very tired and "sapped" afterwards, even if its small)

thanks very much

well i totally get what you're saying man, though i think "higher" or "more experienced" self is probably a better term than "future" self since time is supposedly only linear where we are now (or something like that).

thanks to david, i started trying to look for communication from my "higher" self. mostly from digital clocks and synchronicities. it's tough going though, for me anyway. if i understand correctly, a synchronicity event means that you should pay attention to what you were thinking just prior to the event. most of the time i can't figure out why it was important. maybe i'm over analyzing, which is hard not to do.

i know david also said you can ask your "higher" self questions, but i'm not sure i've ever been able to figure out when i'm getting an answer.

i'm sure there are others on this board that aren't such novices, so am looking forward to their comments/corrections.

"if thats me in the future, when i am where "me" is in the future, will i be helping "me" in the past progress through my own spiritual growth? almost like a never ending circle" it makes me think about the somewhere in time's watch, you know the round small clock that appears to be out of time... or only in that time.... or whatever... it seems that it is essential for the story, or should i say, experience to take place....

in the "no linear time" sense, one might desire to experience things independent from our limited and hierarchical 3d way of thinking...

another curious thought has come to me. if i am a 6th density wanderer, how does the effect communication with my higher self? (seeings as the higher self is 6th density?) i guess technically that would mean that i already am my higher self?

jblouir,

it makes perfect sense to me on what you're asking. i have to say, at one time i thought the same thing and then realized there is no past or future, only the present moment... which is the only time and place i exist in. which then means i've always existed in this moment no matter what i think. and now that i know this, thoughts & feelings seem to flow to both my lower and higher self to ask for guidence and help in all my experiences at all times no matter what i am conscious of at the moment. i not good at explaining things but i tried...

hi jeremy, i recently got turned on to this concept by david, and found it very intriguing as well as excitingly possible and even probable, in other words it resonates. also i relate to what you said about being drained after trying to express yourself. right now i know what i want to say, but find it difficult to find the words.

so i just let go of wanting to say something that makes sense, and just let it be stream of consciousness, whatever will come out will come out. i feel a key phrase is alignment. i may be stretching to get something i'm not quite ready for, not in alignment with, and that's when it's uncomfortable. not that it's not good to reach for it, just that i'm not there yet.

when i'm in alignment, that's when manifesting and all the other good stuff happens, life just flows, synchronicities come along, the law of attraction working at it's best. the law of attraction can only happen when alignment is there, you can't just get anything you want by thinking about it.

anyway, back to the future higher self. it's an unfathomable concept so no need to make myself crazy thinking about it. i just accept that it's a given, there is a higher force within me that appears to be guiding me when i let it, and it may or may not be from the future, whatever. i don't care what it is or where it comes from as long as it works. i want results, not speculation.

so when a concept like higher self being my future self hits and i'm in tune with it, i can accept and assimilate , let it do it's thing. it's all part of the journey, no need to force and go upstream when it's much easier to let go and drift on downstream, that's where all the treasure is anyway. i'm struggling now to think of how to explain what i know nonverbally, so i'll stop. but i'm finding that no matter how inadequately i say something on this forum, there is no negative feedback, that's nice to know.

great trend and conversation.

yes, but your higher self can also be yourself now. this, i believe is what we all are working towards. to walk, talk and be our true self, 100%, all the time, no need to fear, have doubt, worry about life's little issues. just being our true self, in every moment which is all loving and kind.

remember, as you open yourself to u, re-member to trust that 1st thought, that first instinct. that gut feeling. " trust " and " belief " are key in this opening.

ps: who's better to trust .... otherthan yourself ?

"your higher self is yourself in the future."

i feel, after writing this, somewhat exhausted which usually isnt a good sign, but i would like to know what you guys think.

you know the majority of people claim to believe in angels? whatever "angels" means to you, people have this feeling that someone is watching over them.

it would make sense if that watcher was someone who had something to gain from it, a reason beyond just random kindness, so it makes more sense that your 'guardian angel' is actually a part of you that is helping you get through the hard parts.
