  • In this video, Eckhart taps into how the ego creates a false sense of identity and leaves us unable to forgive both ourselves and others through associating mistakes and wrongdoings to who they are, rather than seeing them as what they actually are: a manifestation of unconsciousness.

      I'm Sorry
      For many years, I carried a deep sense of guilt with me. Which kept shifted, as soon as I apologized to a person for something. I carried the guilt with me and tortured myself for many years. Until I realized, the only person I really needed to apologize to, was myself. I have tortured myself the most. So every day, I apologize to myself, for what I did to myself. This is how I find my innocence; that I once lost, again. And by apologizing to myself, I release my guilt. And so I don't do anything to others either. Because I am at peace with myself and therefore, with the world. Therefore, if you carry guilt with you, apologize to yourself. Because you can't torture yourself and apologize to yourself at the same time. Tormenting inflicts sorrow and apologizing takes away sorrow.

      The automatic mind needs a right and wrong, good and bad, for the mind it has to be someone fault, ours or someone else's, the automatic mind is part of our historic survival mechanism left over from our evolutionary past when we lived in the wild and danger was everywhere we didn't have time to think or rationalise.
      The ego or inner chimp as some call it, is simply an automatic thinking mechanism that more and more people are now becoming aware of and learning to live beyond, its an evolutionary thing that's actually been happening for some time now.
      100 years ago women were not allowed to vote here in the UK, but in the last 50 years we've had 2 female prime ministers, as a species we are evolving beyond the automatic mind and although we have a long way to go still, we are definitely making real progress.

A person told me I needed to stop. It really shocked me but I realized she was right. Forgive THOSE in the past, have compassion for them and forgive and surround them the white light and send them that on its way. I do it daily! Also when you feel yourself slipping back, ask to be brought back to the present. Take a deep breath or two focus on now. I'm on same journey too. It's a learning process and we 're all learning as we go. Focus on present what's good now. See a bird or flower in the sun. Hug your dog. Sounds so simple but it helps not go there in your mind. Also, forgive yourself. Blessings and hugs.

    It is called learning. No one is born a master of life. It takes trial and error...a lot of error...to get to mastery. There is no reason to hold past misteps against yourself. Let it go...forgive. Imagine a toddler learning to walk...it would be ridiculous to hold every stumble and fall against yourself. Years later, long after walking has been mastered...wouldn't it be ridiculous to hold onto the misteps from learning to walk? Wouldn't it be ridiculous to feel guilty for ever having stumbled and fell? It is quite natural and part of the learning process.

      For many years, I carried a deep sense of guilt with me. Which kept shifted, as soon as I apologized to a person for something. I carried the guilt with me and tortured myself for many years. Until I realized, the only person I really needed to apologize to, was myself. I have tortured myself the most. So every day, I apologize to myself, for what I did to myself. This is how I find my innocence; that I once lost, again. And by apologizing to myself, I release my guilt. And so I don't do anything to others either. Because I am at peace with myself and therefore, with the world. Therefore, if you carry guilt with you, apologize to yourself. Because you can't torture yourself and apologize to yourself at the same time. Tormenting inflicts sorrow and apologizing takes away sorrow.

I had multiple reasons for doing it, and I was completely overwhelmed and stressed from being so caught up in them. I have rebooked the treatment but I can't stop bashing myself for cancelling the first time because I believe by delaying the treatment I've made my health worse. I don't know if I'll ever forgive myself :(

    I didn't know or have the same awareness and wisdom then as I have now, and tomorrow and next week I am sure I will need to show forgiveness compassion and understanding to myself of today too.
    Life is a learning curve for us all and we all learn much more from our mistakes than we do our successes

    Whenever I listen to Eckhart, his peaceful nature and his gentle words make me think, "Ah, it's so simple. I see now." And at times I slip into presence and everything does seem simple and effortless. But eventually I slip back into my conditioned reactionary self (like when reading the news, lol). It really does help to take some time to listen to Eckhart or read an inspirational book (like A Course in Miracles), to come back to the realization that what seems so complicated is actually simple and easy. Then a big weight falls away. Thank you Eckhart and all my spiritual teachers. I am so blessed to be able to hear your words of wisdom!

I think we do need a constantly changing one though, in order for us to function. Otherwise how do we individuate ? How do we notice and change patterns of behavior without associating actions with ourselves and accepting that we are doing something consistently ?

    It hit me that he us right when he said, “true forgiveness is when you realize there’s nothing to forgive.” (Obviously paraphrased.) I had a father who was a raging alcoholic, was abusive, humiliated the family, etc., and yet, even as it was happening, I forgave him because I felt sorry for him, and I (at age 66) haven’t felt the need to go to counseling to rehash the past and play the victim.

      I had a NDE around the age of 8 or so because that bitter, violent female that was supposed to be my mother was in terrible pain. At that time, I heard and felt 'SOULS" around me speaking to me. I felt them.They said I should have compassion for her. I didn't try to hurt her, but I don't see why more could not be done for her like what was done for me.
      I am what is called 67 now, but after reading 200 books or so, I know that I am an eternal energy and light being constantly being created by the electrical energy field being everyone calls souls. The quarks that are bursting forth spinning billions of times a second as 3 points of light are these souls. We are the holographic projections of these souls that everyone calls physical, except for me. So intensely and densely formed these bodies are that we don't see through them, even though they are light.
      Death is dependent on being physical, BUT nothing is physical. INTELLIGENCE is holographic/electrical and so are we. We are saturated and immersed within this type of reality right now. We do our best not to hurt others while at the same time being taught by those that seek revenge for a death that does not exist.

      For many years, I carried a deep sense of guilt with me. Which kept shifted, as soon as I apologized to a person for something. I carried the guilt with me and tortured myself for many years. Until I realized, the only person I really needed to apologize to, was myself. I have tortured myself the most. So every day, I apologize to myself, for what I did to myself. This is how I find my innocence; that I once lost, again. And by apologizing to myself, I release my guilt. And so I don't do anything to others either. Because I am at peace with myself and therefore, with the world. Therefore, if you carry guilt with you, apologize to yourself. Because you can't torture yourself and apologize to yourself at the same time. Tormenting inflicts sorrow and apologizing takes away sorrow.

    Unconsciousness is not an excuse for hurting, harming, or abusing other human beings!
    Forgiveness can only be given when unconscious/conscious people who have caused harm and hurt people take corrective actions and apologise sincerely and acknowledge that they know what they did was wrong.

      My Love, forgiveness is never about the one who caused you harm. It is about the harm you are continuing to cause yourself by holding on to your thoughts about that persons actions. Love yourself enough to forgive. They never even have to know you've forgiven them. Forgiveness is a gift you offer to your Self. XO

    Interesting perceptions! Seems like the difference between observing without the past, and thinking we are our reactive uncouscious thoughts, from our past pains and pleasures, like a computer program. I had a experience where I was judging my current situation to better times in the past, and it made me very depressed! I did it to myself! There was a part of me just observing this. So instantly I told that part of myself if it did not have something positive to say or a solution, to just keep silent. I thanked God for the realization, and noticed my peace of mind came back, then joy and love in my heart area, which started to expand and shot up to the top of my head and past. I noticed my mind was a lot more quiet for a couple days, and more observing and at peace. The old way, keeps trying to sneak back in, but that observational awareness is needed each time.
