Find your radar and things usually click back in place. It doesn't mean life will get easy, but less confusing as you are following your True self and the debate, analyzing oneself becomes less of a burden.
Yes.. but generally the selfish separate self is going to conflict with your higher self.. I don't even think acknowledging the struggle really makes it any easier...
It's like the difference between taking a nice hot bath surrounded with candles and incense... nice and comfortable...
or
Your water heater is busted, and you're forced to take an ice cold shower in the middle of winter.
And then you can admit that these two situations are different... but naturally -- 10 to 1, people are going to pick the top, right?
You can say that the higher self is constantly trying to divert your attention to the important things... but that doesn't mean your selfish separate self is going to make it less of a burden... you might even go through the trouble of convincing yourself that the higher self is bullshit from random time to random time... just to keep your selfish side happy.
I almost am convinced that it only gets *more* confusing.. regardless... ignorance in a way, really is bliss... knowledge has a way of working against itself.
So best of luck to MarkAntony, you really do have a unique situation... just like Isabeau said... one step at a time.
