I guess I just feel differently about it. But who knows, you could be right Parsons. And perhaps a lot of this is just semantics.
I don't think the mind dies any more than a character you act as in a play "dies" when you are done acting as them. You necessarily, and without attempting to, put yourself into any character you portray, and just because you are no longer playing that character, doesn't mean you can't at any point in the future bring those attributes back out again. Personalities are like sunglasses for consciousness to look through. They can be taken off, but can also be put back on if the situation requires it. I also don't personally believe you "wake up" as your higher self after death. If that were true -- that we became our higher self at death, I can't see why Ra would state:
"36.10 Questioner: Well, let, let me be sure I understand this then. We have spoken of certain particular individuals. For instance, we were speaking of George Patton in a previous communication. Then his higher self at the time of his incarnation here as George Patton about forty years ago, his higher self was at that time sixth-density? Is this correct?
Ra: I am Ra. This is correct. We make note at this time that each entity has several beings upon which to call for inner support. Any of these may be taken by an entity to be the mind/body/spirit complex totality. However, this is not the case. The mind/body/spirit complex totality is a nebulous collection of all that may occur held in understanding; the higher self itself a projection or manifestation of mind/body/spirit complex totality which then may communicate with the mind/body/spirit during the discarnate part of a cycle of rebirth or, during the incarnation may communicate if the proper pathways or channels through the roots of mind are opened."
To me this sounds like the higher self and the discarnate soul are still very much still separate (relatively speaking) after death.
I agree with your observations about the 2D subconscious mind and it being the automatic/instinctual part of the mind, however.
