In enabling the reader of this topic to gain a solid understanding of the material presented, it is important to be prepared witha clear understanding of "The Sense of Self".

This will be most helpful if you feel that the references to the "sense of self" on this page are unclear in your mind.

Table1: The levels of Self Identification.

Through the various stages of a persons human , social and spiritual development, the sense of WHO a person is (that is, the inner identification where self fulfilment, and the recognition of self worth emanate from), should progress to new meanings as the individual experiences life more completely. I purposefully use the word "should" to indicate that many people do not necessarily progress to a more refined view of their existence beyond a basic sense of self identification aligned with the physical or mental levels.

From the table above, we can examine each level of being and see how the human psyche matures in life. Each level of existence re-defines and matures the sense of self through relative experiences, associations, comparisons and other qualifications. These can all serve us by ultimately allowing a revelation, that one day we can cast aside the need for external qualifications and rest in the knowledge that we exist because we exist. Such an attitude is devoid of comparisons and analogies, since we see ourselves as forever being complete. Our true self is a spiritual being and to paraphrase, "we are spiritual beings on physical journey"
