The higher self is the closest approximation of the self to the Primal Distortion of the Creator. It is the truest expression of each entity's individual identity, the crystalline Essence that reflects the light of the one Creator. The higher self is a combination of the various different timelines of an entity's experience merging into one social memory complex which guides and inspires the conscious self offering wisdom and directing the flow of spiritual Evolution.
The higher self is a manifestation given to the late sixth‑density mind/body/spirit complex as a gift from its future selfness. The mid‑seventh density’s last action before turning towards the allness of the Creator and gaining spiritual mass is to give this resource to the sixth‑density self, moving, as you measure time, in the stream of time.
This self, the mind/body/spirit complex of late sixth density, has then the honor/duty of using both the experiences of its total living bank, or memory, of experienced thoughts and actions and using the resource of the mind/body/spirit complex totality left behind as a type of infinitely complex thought‑form.
Each entity has its totality, and at the point at which a planetary entity becomes a social memory complex, the totality of this union of entities also has its oversoul and its social memory complex totality as resource.
The oversoul is a broader expression of the self, encompassing the multiple variations of social memory complexes which primarily may not be from a similar or a same individualized entity but from a group or collective which primarily incarnates into various different timelines. It allows a tapestry of different experiences lessons and growth that the individual entity has accumulated over many cycles of incarnation. The oversoul acts as a resource or repository of wisdom shaping the development of conscious selves across multiple lifetimes.
As always, the whole, spiritually speaking, is greater than the sum of its parts, so that the oversoul of a social memory complex is not the sum of the oversouls of its member entities but operates upon the law of squares.
The mind body spirit complex totality is the fullest expression of the self integrating in the various aspects of the beingness, the mental the physical and the spiritual into a unified whole. The Mind Body Spirit complex totality may be considered as a complete spectrum of an entity's Consciousness including all past present and future incarnations. It represents the totality of entity's beingness the true essence of who an entity is. These three aspects- Higher self, oversoul and mind body spirit totality, are not separate or distinct but rather interconnected and interdependent facets of the one infinite self, which work in harmony guiding and supporting the conscious self in its journey of self-discovery and spiritual growth.
In this way you may see your self, your higher self or oversoul, and your mind/body/spirit complex totality as three points in a circle. The only distinction is that of your time/space continuum. All are the same being.
