This subject for people like me is very important, mainly due to our comprehension of this subject. This doesn't mean we completely understand what we are aware of, it just means we comprehend what we don't completely understand. This is very important to comprehend in the first place.
So, would the higher self see itself as being a higher form of consciousness, of a higher stature?
While of this higher self, can a consciousness of this higher self abuse energy? The answer is no, it is utterly impossible for this higher consciousness to abuse energy due to the inability to abuse energy, this mainly because it is this inability to abuse energy that makes this consciousness of a higher plain. A more aware and wiser consciousness has no need or more importantly desire to abuse energy, in actuality to do otherwise is not of the higher self.
As we look around today in the world, what kind of consciousness is of a higher stature? As we are experiencing in the present, the now, in regards to COVID, abuse reigns supreme. The more abusive you become, the higher the stature you are elevated to.
This brings us back to the initial question, would the higher self see itself as being a higher form of consciousness, of a higher stature? To elevate yourself to something higher is of stature, but as we know, a higher stature or even a perception of doesn't mean you are of a more aware and wiser consciousness, in truth, quite the opposite.
To be of this higher self is to not perceive you are of a higher self, simply that you are in a state of consciousness of awareness that is governed by wisdom. As we find ourselves today, we are more aware today than ever but far more abusive towards energy than ever. Why? Probably due to the lack or even absence of wisdom. It is like democracy. If not governed by a just governing system, democracy can be just as dictatorial, corrupt and of inhumanity as governing systems such as fascism and communism. Now imagine having a perception of being of a higher self in the absence of wisdom, the higher self simply becomes of a higher stature, in this case to abuse/ostracise anything not of this higher self/stature.
We often think that a higher state of consciousness would avoid being of any part of a lower consciousness, the bad vibrations from a lower consciousness would be too much to handle. In actuality it is the other way around. If you are able to put yourself into an environment of discord and not become abusive, which also means not ostracising and demeaning people of a lower stature than yourself, you are of this higher state of consciousness. No amount of bad or negative vibrations are able to penetrate this consciousness. The reason for this is the absence of status and segregation of the higher self to the lower self.
In all honestly, we are utterly surrounded by material and non-material consciousness that is of this deemed higher self. So you may ask why is not this more apparent to most of us? Because we are still looking for a higher status within ourselves and in other forms of consciousness. This consciousness that we call the higher self does not in anyway deem itself to be of a higher stature, but it is understandable why a less aware and wiser consciousness would do so. The trick is to go beyond the perceptions of higher and lower statures, in the process become less abusive towards energy, as a whole. We just don't become less abusive towards each other but less abusive towards energy as a whole.
We have got ourselves into a bit of a dilemma though, where actual truths, that can hurt our egos, are felt by the ego as being abusive, we then add to this dilemma by only desiring what makes the ego feel good. Of course what makes the ego feel good is of desired truths rather than actual truths, as always.
