Does a higher self cease its role once graduation occurs?

[Stranger]

I think the higher self is the self at a certain density so when you are of that density you are your higher self moving in to timelessness (Ra says the higher self is positioned as the last 'looking back to aid the self' before turning to focus on the gate of the seventh) and so you will actually perceive all your lives simultaneously. Later in seventh you will create the higher self for the lower density incarnations.

As it has been explained to me, the Higher Self is almost what you might consider a recording, like a Holodeck character on Star Trek.  It can be interacted with and can cogently synthesize its experience into replies and actions, but does not possess the spirit-essence that would allow it to continue creating, which is the function of the spirit.  Its knowledge base is the sum total of all experiences in all incarnations.
