Integrating Realisation with Experience

Monday 23 August 2021

Is There a Higher Self?

A questioner asks about the existence of the higher self. Rupert responds that it is not a term he uses or refers to in his teaching and offers the analogy of John Smith and King Lear, which points not to a higher self, but to the non-existence of King Lear.
