Forgiving

 

Think everyday regarding what one is doing. Observe. Listen. Pause. Give. Commit. Express. This is to be done every day. The slate of impression has to be created and wiped clean at the end of each day.

People forget things – willingly or unwillingly. They blame others, cite difficulties and excuses and sublet responsibilities. Why do people get angry and blame others? Why do we keep getting entangled in what was being said and in what way? Why so we give this concept so much importance? Remember that it is we who give words or expressions so much importance and construct notions of value and identity with it. It is a given. Consciousness, forgets (or perhaps chooses to forget) its own potential and considers itself as a manifested phenomenon of force and matter( expressing “memory” or identity). In fact, the boundless consciousness sets up a boundary or a fluid position and takes on a form and memory and becomes interconnected to other forms as a ‘conduit’ or some kind of a drop in the ocean of consciousness. After taking form, it decides to go back to its own nature of boundless entity. So this journey or transformation from zero vibration to some vibration/ impression/memory/form and back to zero vibration is continuous. This  is the fundamental quality of vibration – changing from space to force to matter, the rate of which differs according to scale of phenomenon and the nature of phenomenon.

This brings us back to the question of the nature of engagement and the nature of “memory” for us. What do we mean by memory – is it only for survival or is it for knowing consciousness? Is it to live in a bounded situation harbouring anger, greed, fear, anxiety, low esteem, perfection, baggage, guilt, jealousy etc…? All these are interconnected with ego or too narrow a mind. This means that anger is generated by us – not the situation. And if we identify with this seed called anger, we will fuel anger everywhere and we will get anger everywhere in return. What signals we imagine in our mind, we send it to the cosmos (outside) and we connect with only those signals from cosmos. Simple.

Hence, if we try and send signals of love, compassion, trust, unlimited potential to cosmos, we will get the same signals from it - as the cosmos and us are not different. The difference is only apparent – like an illusion. Hence, the control of life is in our hands.

 

The approach to life is about pure expression of our own phenomenon that remains interconnected with the entire cosmos. So letting go of countless variables of perfection and irritants is required. It doesn’t matter what one has said and in what ways. It doesn’t matter that one is fast to prove a point. It doesn’t matter in what culture, time , form, colour one is born. It doesn’t matter what one  has inherited as a situation. It doesn’t matter what strengths and weaknesses one has. It doesn’t matter what people think (about you). It doesn’t matter that money remains limited to give or share.

What matters is the ability to forgive, thank, pause, empathize and love. That’s all that is required for a peaceful life.
