This is an enlightening turn of conversation, I struggled with my shadow self as well before I recognized it in an other-self and began working to resolve it. If I may, volicon (how brave you are!) use your words to illumine something dear:
Consider, if you will, that your human 3D body is the child of your higher self. Your higher self has made the decision to bequeath a portion of itself to 3D earth, so you should think of treating it no worse or different than your own child, or a young-aged other-self. Just because you've been here longer doesn't mean you deserve any less love, sympathy, happiness, completeness of being.
Much love and light to everyone, others' bravery is always very inspiring. Facing the shadow self is one of the darker paths to tread, but it still leads towards the same destination as all other paths of self awareness, enlightenment (and enlovenment!)
Quote:I have a problem with it though. Would a thought form I create be an independent, sentient, conscious, self-aware entity capable of free will? That would be like abusing, raping and torturing my own child!! Or can I split out a part of myself for the role? Would that split become self-aware?
