We Feel That We Are Greater Than We Know.

One of Dolores Cannon's clients- channeling his higher self or spirit guide- says," We are the tip of our own icebergs".  He also says, " Each of you, at this point in your lives, are simply facets of your true entire self. You are pinpoints of awareness. Your total awareness is far beyond anything you could encompass or imagine at your level. Your awareness... is simply a drawn-out or focused pinpoint of that total spiritual awareness."

Jung said much the same thing, but also added that the parts in our "shadow" can be malevolent forces, since they're the parts of ourselves that we deny and cast out...which gives them power over us, since our rejection of them blinds us to even the possibility of their existence.

I also suspect that achieving "total awareness" while we're still stuck inside the timestream (i.e. still living) and still having our selves generated through our physical brains, would probably result in madness. Our minds just aren't set up to process having all our contradictory parts thrust into reality at the same time.

No, we're engineered to function in this particular environment. Our brains filter out a great deal of the information available to us. If they didn't our circuitry would get fried. As T.S. Eliot wrote, "Humankind cannot bear very much reality"
