Guilt is the feeling that you did something wrong when in reality you’ve done it to yourself
guilt : guilty conduct : the state of one who has committed an offense especially consciously : feelings of culpability especially for imagined offenses or from a sense of inadequacy : self-reproach : a feeling of culpability for offenses.
My View...
Guilt is wishing that you had done something different in a given situation, it’s the feeling that you did something wrong. There is no right or wrong, there is only experience, and besides what’s done is done, let it go. If you feel the need, and in some cases you should to simply release blocked energy, make up for what you believe you did wrong.
Learn by it and begin acting from your heart, from love instead of from your head or fear and you’ll soon see that there will be nothing to feel guilty about.
It’s when you’ve separated from your God-Self and treated others in a non-loving way and do things from fear instead of love that the potential for guilt will arise in your experience.
As you awaken and remember that you are all things, that you are God, whatever you do to another you are really doing it to yourself you’ll learn to identify with and act from your God-Self, from love and you’ll never have any reason to feel guilty again. Be good and do good.
My Experience...
One of the areas that I feel most guilty about is the slight abandonment and financial situations I’ve caused for my family. For the past 7 or 8 years I’m been immersed in writing and research to not only awaken myself, but to be able to tell a good enough story to help others awaken.
I know that I could have spent more time with my children who are now 14 and 15 and my wife of 22 years and I do feel guilty for that, and I thank them all from the bottom of my heart for allowing me to experience this awesome journey and bring these loving words to you.
I know that I can’t get the years back, nor can it probably be made up for, but I have always loved them and fortunately most of the research and writing and been done from my home office, however I still sense that they all would like me to spend more quality time with them.
Sometimes I wish that I could just BE, and spend more time with them, instead of constantly doing. But I like you have a mortgage and bills to pay, and in my story that requires doing creative work that inspires and adds value to others so that mine and my family’s needs are met.
I believe that the God-Self’s within my children and wife and the love we share for each other will heal any wounds, but as a father and a husband I do feel guilty for time separate from them, but they forgive me and I forgive myself, and I love what I Am doing and feel that this love lifts them up too, so it’s okay.
The Simple...
You are more than just your story, you’re everything in your story, so whatever you are doing to another you’re really doing to yourself, you are all things in your story and that’s why if you do harm to someone or something in your story you feel guilty.
The key to eliminating guilt is to forgive yourself, forgive those you harmed, love those you harmed and love yourself. If you feel the need apologize and make it up to those you harmed do so.
Then from this point forward wake up, remember who you are, remember that everyone in your world is an extension of you, love them, care for them as if they were a part of you, which they are. Allow the guilt to melt away, unconditionally love all parts of you - that means everyone and everything.
From now on let your heart, your love, your God-Self be your guide, let your pure heart guide your way.
