Forgiveness - Releasing blockages!

"Salvation of the world depends on you who can forgive – such is your function here." A course in miracles.

Forgiveness is not a moral issue, forgiveness is an energy dynamic! Life is like passing through a series of mesh screens. We start off by passing though the least refined screen and each time we pass through one successfully we refine our energy even further in preparation for the next. As we move slowly through each screen our energy becomes less dense and more refined vibrating at a higher faster frequency and we are able to move through even more refined screens without too much trouble. When we are hurt by life’s experiences we try to avoid feeling the discomfort of pain and instead of walking through the pain we hold the negative emotions we are experiencing within our bodies. Sometimes we do not express or more correctly we choose not to express these negative emotions for fear of experiencing the pain and they become buried deep within our energy system. When our energy system contains blockages we get stuck on the mesh screen and are unable to pass on through to the next one. Being stuck is exhausting both physically and emotionally and when this happens much of our energy is lost. If we remain stuck on the mesh for too long the energy blockage in our system will manifest itself somewhere in the body as a mental or physical disease. Anger, resentment or negativity directed at one’s self or towards someone else will create a blockage within your energy system. When this happens you will be caught up in the mesh and find that you are unable to pass on through the screen. This is where you are likely to stay until you are able to let go of or release the negative emotion. The only way to do this is through forgiveness. The ego is that part of the Self, experiencing it’s self as separate. From the viewpoint of the ego everything is threatening to it’s physical and emotional security. The ego is what holds on to these negative emotions. The ego does not acknowledge anything outside of it’s self and does not want to relinquish what it perceives to be “control” over your outer world. The ego is threatened by and does not acknowledge an inner world. It will do everything in its power to prevent you from connecting to your inner world and finding your true Self. The ego knows that when you do find your true Self within, it will have lost its power over you. The ego is unable to identify with being connected to anything it perceives as being separate from or greater than itself. Forgiveness is experienced by the ego as something we “bestow” upon someone if or when we believe them to be worthy of it. The ego uses the logical rational side of the brain, believing that if we forgive ourselves or others we will be seen as weak and will be inviting more of the same anger, resentment and discomfort into our lives. Only when we are able to set the ego aside and express the negative emotions or accept them as an opportunity for personal growth are we able to let go of them. Forgiveness therefore is not for the benefit of the offender, forgiveness is for our own benefit. Forgiveness is the process by which blockages are released allowing love to flow freely. Love is pure energy! It is a powerful current that recharges the system instantly bringing with it peace and joy and harmony. When you open up and allow yourself to feel love the heart chakra starts spinning in a clockwise direction drawing the life force into the body - blockages are blown away. Love recharges us instantly and the dynamic of our energy changes instantaneously. When you allow yourself to receive love without fear you also allow yourself to give love without fear. This means that energy is flowing freely thorough your system and this is how it should be. Forgiveness results in the giving and receiving of love. The giving and receiving of love, is not a moral obligation, it is an energy dynamic! Through forgiveness we are able to dissolve or release blockages held within the body. Emotions are energy and energy can never be destroyed it can only change its form. Negative energy is heavy and sticky. Once forgiveness is felt at cellular level, anger, resentment, in fact all negativity is transformed into a much less dense energy called love. The energy of love being a much higher frequency than anger and resentment will free you from the mesh allowing you to move on. When this happens you will feel as though the world has been lifted off your shoulders. Free from the burden of negative emotions. Life will feel like a challenge once again as you align yourself with the next screen. This time however, you will have the gift of knowledge to help you along the way. We learn through our mistakes. These mistakes are sometimes painful but without them we do not progress. Allow yourself to make mistakes. Forgive yourself when you do. Once you are able to forgive yourself you will find it easier to allow others to make mistakes as you will find it easier to forgive them. The more refined our energy becomes and the less blockages we have the more easily we are able to tune into and receive intuitive promptings from the Higher Self. At the same time the more refined our energy becomes the less attracted we are to the ego, which begins to lose its power over us. Once you set the ego aside and begin building a relationship with your Higher Self, and as this relationship deepens you will start to communicate more freely with that aspect of your Self which is all wise and knowing! You will begin to sense and recognize intuitive whisperings and promptings. You will experience the subtle tingling sensations and distinct feelings associated with a deep sense of knowing and very soon you will be able to instantly recognize the gentle guidance coming from your Source. When we go within connecting to our inner world, the Higher Self knows it is a part of a greater intelligence or energy system permeating all of life. We are a part of this system, interdependent, and we can never be disconnected or separated from it. When we are connected to the Higher Self through our inner world we do not experience the discomfort of negative emotions.
