One thing to keep in mind, which I have learned, is creation exists within an infinite spectrum of light and there will always be beings whose higher self is either lighter and darker than our own being. So there is no room for the ego in this quest for self-discovery. There is nothing wrong with wanting to know about one’s higher self and if there is a desire to know, it means there is value for you either in the process of getting or having the information. It is our higher self which gives us such desires.
