All Connected By Silver Threads!


Today I'd like to expound upon an idea which has been going around in my head for many years now. It was my father who first informed me of this supposition many years ago, when he was reading some Lobsang Rampa books. Like Erich Von Daeniken, Lobsang Rampa has been branded a charlatan in many circles, but it's not really about belief in my opinion, but rather about getting new ideas out into the open.

The premise put forward by Lobsang Rampa was as follows:

We each of us are linked by a silver thread (symbolically) to a higher-self, but several others are also linked similarly, by silver threads, to that same higher-self. When the threads get crossed, that's how people become schizophrenic, their personalities have in essence merged with anothers, although they are in some way connected.

To be honest with you, I quite like this suggestion, but I've considered several other possibilites tied in with it. Suppose, that all the individuals connected to the higher-self, live in different times, and that time therefore is linear. This would acount for cases of past lives remembered by some individuals, in other words, not past lives, but lives of other individuals connected to the higher-self. Alternatively, all of the lower-selfs are the same self, but time is irrelevant. This would make for a great pub discussion, don't you think?

Not all ‘higher selves’ (Rampa used the term Overself) have more than one extension. Rarely do the silver chords (threads) touch and if so, there would not be any ill effect. It takes much more than one chord coming in proximity or contact with another. It is rare because the Overself would choose only one extension on Earth unless some special task requires it to be otherwise. The extensions operate at different frequencies and the Overself would know precisely which messages are coming and going from each its puppets. It is true that there can be circumstances where the messages are misdirected but it never results in schizophrenia and involves more than just messages jumping from one chord to another. If you believe in the Overself then it follows that you must also believe in reincarnation because that is the whole purpose of having extensions. Each extension lives a great number of lives and all have a separate and individual subconscious. All have distinct and separate subconscious memories of their past lives. In due time, they all return home to their complete selves.
