Today I was cleaning my house and the following information on how to best take advantage of our human experience came to me. Perhaps you can consider applying them to your own life.
They are amazingly simple, yet extremely complex:
- Forgive Others/Self
- Forget
- Love
- Peace
- Heaven
The period between phases 2 and 3 can be quite long, sometimes taking a lifetime or lifetimes to overcome. One of the reasons I feel this way is because our ego mind has to make everything and everyone fit into a category. Something has to be black or white; or someone has to be right or wrong. This dualistic way of thought creates many problems in our lives preventing us from reaching steps to true peace and beyond. More later.
I'll end today with this quote, from a 17th century poet:
George Herbert
He that cannot forgive others, breaks the bridge over which
he himself must pass if he would ever reach heaven;
for everyone has need to be forgiven.
