Top Forgiveness Level 1

The Levels Of Forgiveness

(Using "rocks" as my (weights) example of dead weight.)

When someone hurts you (directly or indirectly), it is like adding an extra rock to your BackPack (Rucksack) of pain, and every rock you add slows you down mentally and spiritually to the point that you no longer even want to get out of bed.

Your entire world is focused downwards, including physically, mentally and spiritually.

Genuine honest forgiveness allows you to throw away these debilitating "rocks" (weights) and proceed with your life in a lighter and more beautiful manner.

Carrying around (commonly called baggage) is not only a waste of energy, but it robs you of your life essence as well.

Baggage can destroy your life, your friends lives, your families lives and even the lives of people you come in contact with.

We often see people who play the "Sympathy Card" (game) because some event happened to them and they run around seeking sympathy from "all and sundry".

These people literally become "Psychic Vampires" and drain the life force out of people who let them do so.

My Chullpa Example ↟↟

A Chullpa is a "round stone" construction and they are found across the Altiplano in Peru and Bolivia. The tallest are about 12 meters (39 ft) high.

If you keep building a Chullpa, you will end up with a Himalayan tower. +

What is my point?

When I was 18, my first Buddhist teacher (Brian from the UK) was discussing the "Empty Corner in an Empty Room" koan.

He explained that when you put up "barriers" - that you should think of them like bricks (or stones) that surround us and that these eventually become "SO High", that not even truth can enter.

How high?

So High.

Brian said that if we become like an empty corner in an empty room, then nothing can touch us because they (the bad people) have nothing to aim at compared to when we put bricks up around us which gives negative people plenty to aim at.

Also, The higher you make the "Tower", the more people can see you and potentially attack you.

The Solution ↟↟

He said that the solution was to meditate on each of these "bricks" and then visually see them being removed from the wall until they are all gone.

Then meditate on pre-programming your mind so that you do not add more "bricks" again, even by accident. This method is called

The reason I put the Chullpas and the Himalayan Towers is because I wanted you to visualize these walls (barriers) of how they would look in 3D if you made them from bricks or stone.

Final Point.

Brian said that we also need to be aware that the higher up we build, the more dangerous it will be for us (and anyone near us) when the towers eventually collapse.

"Because they always collapse", he said.

Soul Mirror ↟↟

When someone says something nasty and hurtful to you, the ONLY person who can let those words affect you and hurt you IS "You".

How do I stop people hurting me?

The answer is actually very easy and I have used this since 1978 (approx 48 years) when I was first told of this simple method.

It is called the "Light Switch Method" - and there are (now) 3 of these methods.

METHOD 1

When someone says something nasty, just imagine that they are throwing "Darkness" onto you.

Immediately activate your "Internal Light Switch" and turn that Light Switch "ON" to full.

Now flood all of your body, mind and soul with light which has dissolved all of the darkness.

All of their words have vanished and you are filled with joyful light.


METHOD 2

"Light Switch Method 2" is just as simple.

You have a "Switch" in your mind which allows you the ability to accept or reject information which is sent to you.

... way back before computers we were told to simply turn the switch to "reject" and their words are automatically gone.

Now focus on something which has given you joy recently instead of what the negative person said.


METHOD 3

Computer example.

Think of the nasty words like SPAM.

They send you junk and you simply press the DELETE button and it is gone.

Now open the next email with a new pair of iridescent Pumps (shoes) or a Ferrari for $100 (limited sale).

It is really that simple and it only takes a small amount of practice to start working.

Good Luck.

Tarnish.

Hurtful events (great and small) actually tarnish the mirror of your soul and this impedes and even stops the Light of The Creator from being reflected from into you and from within you.

Genuine forgiveness allows you to clean and polish your soul so that it again reflects the beautiful light of Creation - and this light will have a positive effect on all of those around you - Plus - your own quality of life will be greatly improved.

It is suggested that you meditate on the Cause of these events and see which way they have opened up (or closed) other opportunities for you to proceed in.

Opportunities - such as - which allow you to help benefit this planet and all who reside here.

Acceptance ↟↟

In order to do this, you must first get past "Acceptance".

There is a saying that I was taught many years ago which said, "when you run into a wall, stop and look around for the door".

Remember ↟↟

Forgiveness only works IF you are genuine - otherwise you will continue to grow resentment and even hatred to the point of self destruction.

Forgiveness is your First Step.

By meditating on How and Why you ended up in your situation, "it is possible" for you to avoid repeating the same mistakes again and again and again etc.

Exceptional Souls ↟↟

However, sometimes you cannot avoid repeating events and especially IF you have an exceptional soul and the Creator decides that your ability to reach more people for the greater good is best done by removing you from the chess board of life.

These are rare individuals indeed.


Top Level 2 - Acceptance

Acceptance typically starts after the pain has subsided and you are less emotional about the said event.

Acceptance means that even though you may not agree with what happened, you accept that there is a higher divine "force" at work and it is including you very specifically in "The Plan".

This "Acceptance" often takes many years to eventuate and in my personal cases, it often did take many years.

Bigger Picture ↟↟

Personal Note:

I would often have great ideas when I was younger and so I would approach certain people for advice or even for start up funding.

Often after I had been declined assistance, I would find out that these people had taken my idea and that they had become successful.

I received no compensation.

I could have been bitter about these "betrayals" but instead I simply saw these events as part of my (positive and negative) Karmic journey.

When I was 42 I met my Soul Mate and it was then - and with great clarity - that I realized that IF I had pursued the money and become a negative person, that I would not have met my soul mate and my spiritual life would have had one very big and massive black hole in it.

Simply by believing in the Creators divine plan for me and pursuing truth and knowledge, it led me to the most significant physical cornerstone of my current life.

Without acceptance, none of this would have happened.

Deny ↟↟

If you deny Acceptance, then you are most likely to repeat the same mistake (eg: go out with the same kind of asshat) until you accept "The Lesson" and move on.

You will also become more ensconced in the material world and the beauty which potentially awaits you on a spiritual and Loving level, may be denied to you (which is very sad).

It is only by accepting the lesson that you can move on to the next stage of your spiritual development.

Meditation Helps ↟↟

If you want to gain more control in your life choices, you may like to try which helps calm down your cortisol production and this gives you much more control over your thoughts and actions.

Meditation helps give you more focus.

NOTE: It should be pointed out that IF and When you do have negative experiences, you are being "pushed" by the "universe" towards something much greater than your current destiny - but only if you meditate on the reason behind the events and ACT on them.

This literally means that "Heaven" is taking a personal interest in you so do not waste this opportunity.


Top Level 3 - Semi-Divine Understanding

Semi Divine Understanding is where you realize that something which happened to you was "implemented" in such a way that it forced you to change your direction from one of destructive tendencies OR neutral destiny, to a path of "potential" constructive and positive tendencies and actions.

However, this "realization" only works if you act upon it.

This is above the "Accepted" level because at the "Accepted" level, you still cannot see the benefits of whatever befell you physically, emotionally or spiritually and thus you are still waiting for clarity in order to proceed in the right direction.

"Acceptance" is when you realize that a specific event "caused" you to take a different path - but on Level 3 (Semi-Divine Understanding) how you approach and utilize "that path" will determine if you are elevated spiritually or not.

This will also have a direct impact on your as well.

Bitterness ↟↟

Too many people believe that when something happens, it is bad because it removes them from their current life path.

This shows a great ignorance in our society because The Universe was NOT created for "our" personal pleasure.

Indeed, the whole purpose of Creation is for a much higher spiritual ascension but this can only happen if we follow the "street signs" and take notice of the road going UP instead of everywhere else.

It is the journey of the Soul to experience pain and betrayal etc and for that soul to forgive and transcend these events as it grows into it potential potential.

The pain involved in many events - to the individual - are beyond comprehension to others, but each soul will go through these events at one stage or another during their evolution.

The test is how you handle the situation AND how genuine you are while doing so.


Top Level 4 - Greater-Divine Understanding

Greater Divine Understanding (may) come if you live long enough and you have done enough good deeds and drawn enough spiritual energy into the physical realm.

Part 2 of that statement is that you must also have consciously elevated spiritual energy "back" up to the Source.

While this must be done by the individual, it is also imperative that you elevate others as well.

This requires that you create, participate in and actually "action" the creation and execution of this spiritual elevation by others.

Then, IF you are worthy, you may be shown "a" greater "picture" of how your actions have affected others and the future - not just on this planet but throughout Creation itself.

You think that you are just on this tiny planet in the middle of nothingness, but the reality is that YOU ARE part of something so massive most of you will reject it because your brains cannot even begin to comprehend the enormity of the scale.

And even higher than that, you may be shown how you can help spiritually elevate other planets and even universes as well.

If you got a rush of while reading this, then you are close, very close.

Two of the keys you must have (at least) are Compassion and

While they are "all" important, "Love" is the name of "The Path" to The Creator so if you do not have this higher level of Love in your heart, then you will not resonate with the Path and the Path will not resonate with you.

There are meditation techniques on this website which help you open your heart - if you are interested.
