I think the Higher Self gives to us a "human" feel to our universe. Our LOO says that the One is the super-super intelligent creator of everything, too magnificent to comprehend in its totality. Anyone who was brought up in a religion where "God" listens to our thoughts and prayers might feel a loss of that closeness to the Creator. The HS is absolutely the right substitute for that because not only is it close and intimate, it actually IS each of us. I can feel that intimacy when I need to, and I have no difficulty calling upon it for a little help.
I know that, just as with the old paradigm, my HS might not promptly answer a request but, even so, it took it in. If I don't perceive anything immediately different, I assume that HS wants me to experience the catalyst a little longer and try to derive my own solution. So that itself is a comforting response from HS.
IMO, if I meditate often enough (whatever that may mean to each of us) I will get a closer alignment with HS and, therefore with achieving balance.
