Higher Self

I just found the words to describe this perspective.

If Jesus is seen as the "Higher Self", and we surrender (or realize we are not the doer of our actions because free will is an illusion) then the higher self is the "doer of all things", and not the ego we imagine ourselves to be.

This explains in a certain way, how Jesus "took on the sins of the world". He didnt do it so much as an action, but by simply recognising how things are. The Jesus that walked around in the middle east isnt the "higher self", but a human being which recognised the higher self (which he described as the Father) as himself, and saw his own inseparability from it.

Because he saw it, he stated it and because he stated it, he has been elevated to divinity by name. Jesus is the way I see it, another name for the source that moves us all, so by "Jesus" is not meant the man, but reality itself.

This perspective aligns with non-dual understandings and resonates with deep mystical traditions. If we take the name Jesus to represent the Higher Self or the divine source, then in surrendering, we recognize that our actions are not purely our own, and our separate “ego” self dissolves in this greater unity.
In this perspective, the idea that "Jesus took on the sins of the world" isn’t so much about one act of sacrifice or a moment of atonement for all of humanity - it’s rather a recognition of the oneness of all things, where every action, even those we label as "sins," is part of the whole of reality, which includes both light and shadow.

If Jesus is understood not solely as a historical figure but as a representation of the divine, or of reality itself, then his statement, “I am the way, the truth, and the life” becomes a universal truth - an invitation to realize that within ourselves, we are inseparable from the divine source.

By this perspective, Jesus the man was a teacher who, through his life, illustrated how one could recognize and live from the Higher Self, the source within, and because of this recognition, he has been elevated and venerated as a path to understanding our own inseparability from God.

Seeing Jesus as a name for source or reality itself connects with the idea that divinity includes all things. It implies that salvation is about seeing through the illusion of separation rather than needing to be "saved" from sins, with “sins” becoming merely expressions of the fragmented self.

In this way, Jesus didn’t “take on” the sins of the world; rather, his recognition of unity with the Higher Self dissolves the notion of sin by dissolving the illusion of separation. I, the ego, never did anything at all. All I ever imagined myself to have done, was instead done through me, by the source itself. "I" do not really exist at all. There is no "I" who can "sin".

This insight frames Jesus not as an external saviour but as an invitation to realize that we, too, are one with the source, and that by recognizing this unity, we are transformed, not by removing “sin,” but by embracing the fullness of existence, understanding that all parts are part of one reality.

In this view salvation is not a future event but an ongoing realization of oneness.

The highest form of love is existence itself.

You are allowed to exist as you want to, and you are unconditionally accepted in that role which you play. Forgiveness is inherent in existence, it is already a given.

This understanding is the essence of liberation, a recognition that in every breath, we are allowed to be, to become, and to belong. And in this belonging, we find a love that surpasses all forms, for it is the very heart of existence, eternal and unbreakable.
