How do you define a relative self?

There is no higher source or higher self. These concepts are made up human stories.

The relative self is the totality. It's already absolute prior to recognizing it.

It's not actually real, but it seemingly starts in the body around the age of 3 or 4 yrs old. 

Consciousness is just the bodily senses coupled with conditioned imagination. 

When the physical body dies, the illusion of consciousness ends simultaneously.

 

“Everything is honoured, but nothing matters.” — Eckhart Tolle.

"I have lived on the lip of insanity, wanting to know reasons, knocking on a door. It opens. I've been knocking from the inside." -- Rumi

Shrödinger's Cat. It used to be the name of a show I watched on TV as a kid. It was about science and it was probably my favorite program.
