Are there really other selves at all

[anagogy]

What you say anagogy sounds like magic, and I'm not even sure if I believe in magic. Having immense freedom to do what we want. That sounds unreal.

When you look at the world from the standpoint of: all that exists is experience that awareness is passing through. And then when you understand that the creator, or infinity, which is our true nature contains all possible experiences, you begin to ask yourself: how could it be any other way?  

All experiences are there to be had.  We chose this experience we are having right now for the sake of the experience.  It wasn't the only option we had. The great hallmark of an infinite creator is variety.
