THE MIRROR
OF FORGIVENESS
There is no one
who enters this world who does not have experiences or witness others having
experiences so painful and so horrific that this world simply does not contains
the tools for their correction. When we forgive having had, or having
witnessed, such experiences; we broaden and deepen our awareness. In so doing,
we broaden and deepen our ability to create the conditions in worlds. Thus, through
forgiving, we become able to create worlds in which the conditions of the
repair needed are possible.
However, it is
written: And the LORD said: I have pardoned according to thy word. – Numbers
14:20.
What does in 'accordance with your word' mean?
What does in 'accordance with your word' mean?
We are all in
this world because we have lessons in forgiveness to learn. The most important
lesson in forgiveness we will ever learn is how to create worlds in which forgiveness
does not exist because there is no need whatsoever for it.
Forgiveness is not a meta-value. If it were, it would mean that there would have to be reasons to forgive in all worlds. It would mean that there would have to be suffering and hurts and betrayal in all worlds, God forbid. "I have pardoned in accordance with your words" means 'because you are in a state of consciousness in which you see yourself as in need of pardon and you feel the need to pardon others, I pardon – but that's because you think you need it, not because it is an all-encompassing need that exists on all levels and I very much want you get to the level upon which you will no longer attract hurtful situations to yourself and you will no longer hurt others and therefore be in need of forgiveness and forgive-getting'.

All of the
People we encounter in the world are aspects of ourselves. We see aspects of
ourselves as integrated whole Others because Infinity cannot be divided.
Others, to us, are aspects of Us. We, in turn are, to those Others, aspects of
them.
We live in a
world in which we need to expand our awareness through forgiveness because we
still have a good amount of cruelty in ourselves and cannot imagine getting to
higher levels of Godconsciousness
without sacrifice and suffering. We, therefore, need to forgive ourselves for
this cruelty and renounce it so that we may move on to kinder and softer ways
of learning and growing.
Please God, may this New Year bring us to the level whereupon we no longer think that have to suffer and forgive in order to grow.
