Knowing about the existence of your Overself is hugely important as you are currently only one 10th conscious, whilst your overself is the other nine 10th’s conscious. But what is the 'Overself'?
Before we go any further we
should try and establish a platform of understanding; a point of reference,
else its pointless going any further as you wouldn't be able to understand.
Most people would like to think that they know what “God” is, and yet the closest being to them; which we could term a God, is their own Overself and they have little or no idea of what it is - or where it is - or that it even exists!
There is a God, a good God, a fair God. But of course God is not the same as a human and it is useless to attempt to comprehend what is God when most people cannot even comprehend their own Overself. Just as you cannot comprehend your Overself, nor can you comprehend the God of your Overself, but that getting into realms quite beyond comprehension whilst existing within the 3rd dimension.
Your Overself resides in the 10th dimension
- the true you is a multi-dimensional being - and seeing that most people
haven't a clue what dimensions are, perhaps we should digress and elaborate
on dimensions before continuing with the Overself.
We currently live in the 3rd dimension, but that still
doesn't help, so let’s start at the 1st and explain up
to the 3rd dimension. Pointless going any further as you
cannot comprehend beyond the 3rd until you can consciously
astral travel which is then the 4th dimension.
The 1st dimension is like a train on a single track running
between two points. It can only go forward and backwards; so it has a single
line of sight; a bit like tunnel vision. So we have length only. The 2nd dimension
is like a ship. It can also go forward and backwards, but it can also move
from side to side, a bit like a shadow. So now we have length and breadth.
The 3rd Dimension is like a plane. It can also go forward
and backwards; move side to side, but it can also move up and down. So now
we have length, breadth and height.
The 4th Dimension is not “time” as many scientists
may think. “Space” is the 4th dimension. Time
is just a convention established by mankind to suit their personal convenience.
Time in the 4th dimension is variable and not constant
as some think. In fact time is never constant; even on earth its variable
depending on each living creature, but we are digressing.
Small interesting fact regarding dimensions; a 2nd dimensional object will cast a 1st dimensional shadow. A 3rd dimensional object will cast a 2nd dimensional shadow. A 4th dimensional object will cast a 3rd dimensional shadow. This is why some UFOs are seen - but not registered on radars - as you are seeing the 3rd dimensional shadow of a 4th dimensional object which current technology cannot monitor.
Your physical body is not the “real” you, it's just a “shell”
you have to enable you to be on this planet, to learn the lessons you came
down here to learn. Now back to establishing a platform of understanding.
We can liken the “Overself” to a brain - in this case your Overself is a
very powerful brain, but far too powerful to actually come down to such
a lower plane of existence and therefore it just send down an extension
of itself which is you - but let’s use your brain for this rationalisation.
The overself managing its many puppets
Your brain; by itself, cannot do very much as see, hear,
feel, touch, smell etc. So
for our brain to understand it needs a variety of extensions attached to
a body. To see it needs eyes, to hear it needs ears, to feel is needs fingers
- which in turn needs hands, which need arms - to smell it needs a nose
and so on, until each and every part of you body serves a purpose for the
brain to
perceive and understand its surroundings. Such is with your Overself; you
are just an extension of it, as your fingers are to your physical body.
You and your Overself are the same thing and by injuring yourself, you injure
your Overself.
Let’s say that your brain has a string of ambitions. It
wants to know what things are like on Earth, what is poverty? What are riches?
What is famine? What
is plethora? What is adversity? What are privileges? To enable your overself
to fully experience and understand these all possibilities; and many more
experiences, it sends down an extension of itself into a physical body so
it can learn and HELLO! that's you!
Doctor Rampa talks about the Overself throughout many of his books. Your Overself hears, sees and experiences everything you do whilst on this earth; there is nothing you do which is unknown to it. Dr. Rampa explains - see book index - in more detail how to communicate with it via your subconscious. Your subconscious is like a good Librarian. The librarian doesn't need to know much themselves; their chief value is in that they know where to find certain information.
So a librarian can be consulted about any problem, and if they are a very good librarian they can tell you just where to look, what type of book will give the information that you need. They will also tell you where the book is on the library shelves. The subconscious is like that, the subconscious is a pretty dim sort of individual, but he or she knows exactly how to get the information you want, so if you get in touch with your subconscious you will find you get results far more quickly than if you waste energy trying to contact your Overself.
Many people believe they have a Spirit Guide because they feel insecure;
because they feel lonely, because they are sure they cannot manage without
help. People want to know about their Guide, their Master, their Keeper,
their Guardian Angel, etc. A person writes and says “Oh, I have
a Red Indian as my Guide; I know he is a Red Indian because he is so wise”
Now, let us get this straight once and for all, people do not have
Red Indians, Black Indians, White Indians, or Tibetans dead or alive
as Guides. Actually there would not be enough Tibetans or Red
Indians to go around. It's like anyone saying “Oh, I was Cleopatra
in my last life!” There is no word of truth in it. Actually
the alleged Guide is just our Overself, who really is our Guide. You
can only communicate directly with your Overself by mystical meditation
only. See "Meditation" for more information.
It's astounding that the Red Indian and Tibetan have been either mistreated
or totally ignored by the whole world as “third class” beings whilst
they are alive and as soon as they are dead, idiots think they have one
as a spiritual guide. What makes you think that just because they are dead,
that they have become spiritual teachers?
And why should they bother with those who abandoned them well before they
were dead? Anyone who thinks that they have a Red Indian or Tibetan Lama
as a guide, or believes that are the reincarnation of someone famous is
very desirously deluded and should be locked up for everyone's safety.
