Can someone explain what the higher self is, exactly?

@benny It can’t be explained. 
 

Sufi story: A man asked a master, “what is the difference between truth and falsehood?” The master replied “4 inches.” The man asked him to explain, so the master said, “it’s the distance between the eye and the ear.”

What you hear is always false, because truth can never be put into words. Truth can only be seen. 


"Not believing your own thoughts, you’re free from the primal desire: the thought that reality should be different than it is. You realise the wordless, the unthinkable. You understand that any mystery is only what you yourself have created. In fact, there’s no mystery. Everything is as clear as day. It’s simple, because there really isn’t anything. There’s only the story appearing now. And not even that.” — Byron Katie

@PurpleTree Ah, gotcha! It all makes sense now!

 

Better go blaze that kush and ascend to higher levels of awakening!
