Hi Vimal,

Great questions 👍

You'd have to define what you mean exactly by "self-belief". 
And then also what you mean by "self-doubt".

There comes a point where you know the self, at-one with the source, absolutely, and without doubt.

But then there's still what arises from there. Can there be doubt that you know the way? Or that you're unsure of how to express or how to align? I'd say these questions and "doubts" can still be there - although they're something different now. Because you get comfortable in the uncertainty of how you'll present and what direction that will be in. The doubt changes to the open-ended question, which although you're enquiring, you know something will flow from it.

Does that makes sense?

Yes, it makes sense. There's better clarity on this. To me, what yo⁸u describe as "doubt" doesn't sound like doubt at all but a natural questioning principle of the soul and how it expresses in this density. Although it could descend into doubt when we are uncomfortable with uncertainty. 

What I mean by doubt is the negative influence where I question myself and my expressions in relation to others and start comparing. This is based on some learned value system. 

Self-belief is the connection to the source presence, as you have described. Interestingly, that connection dimnishes any negative influence and thereby self-doubt. No matter what the conditional value system is, self-doubt is not experienced at this point. 

What I gather from your reflections is that it's an identity filter (soul imposter) that I experience possibly around ray 3, in which case there could come a point where I dont experience it anymore? There could be many and deeper layers of such filters around our strongest rays. It is being exposed through this inquiry and conversation. 

I'm at a spectacular place called Rewalsar rich with karmic history both Tibetan and hinduism. I think this inquiry is also connected wider into the field but not exactly sure what though. There is a huge statue of the MonkeyGod(Hanuman) near to the lake. The place speaks of the original human connection and their subsequent downgradation. 

Hi

Speaking of connection into the source

 

Thanks for the reflection.

Is there a point in the journey where we could say we have reached absolute self belief ? Or is it a bottomless well where we progressively unwind ever finer layers of selfdoubt? Is there self doubt in the higher dimensions or is it merely a facet of identity, something to lose along the way?

To me at this point , self belief and trust are two different things but interrelated. Self belief would be the feeling connection with the self(presence) or belief in the fractal of oneself. Trust on the otherhand would be the trust in the process, knowing that light will always find its way in the universe and flower of life will restablish itself. I wonder if there's a more evolved perspective on this.
