STEP 88 MY HIGHER SELF IS NOT AN INDIVIDUAL.

There is often confusion concerning your Higher Self and your Spiritual Teachers. This is very hard to resolve from the point of view of separation. But when you think of life as an inclusive network of evolving relationships, you then begin to experience and recognize that your Higher Self is indeed part of a greater fabric of relationship. It is the part of you that is not separate but is meaningfully bonded with others. Therefore, your Higher Self is bonded to the Higher Self of your Teachers. They are without duality now, for they have no other self. You have two selves: the Self that has been created and the self that you have created. To bring the self that you have created into service to your True Self joins them together into a meaningful marriage of purpose and service and ends internal conflict forever.

关于你的高我和你的精神导师,经常会有混淆。从分离的角度来看,这很难解决。但是,当你把生命看作是一个不断演化的关系网络时,你就会开始体验并认识到,你的高我的确是更大的关系结构的一部分。它是你的一部分,不是独立的,而是与他人有意义地结合在一起。因此,你的高我与你的老师们的高我结合在一起。他们现在没有二元性,因为他们没有另一个自我。你有两个自我:被创造的自我和你创造的自我。将你所创造的自我带入对真实自我的服务中,将它们结合在一起,形成一个有意义的目标和服务的结合,从而永远结束内心的冲突。
