Guilt is a universally common emotion that resonates with dense and heavy energy. Guilt manifests as feelings of failure, disgust, sadness, hopelessness, shame, and sorrow when a person realizes that he or she has not lived out from their highest level of realized consciousness.
One of the reasons for guilt is that as a person spiritually evolves, pockets of old dense energy stored within from previous lifetimes begins to clear often causing the person to experience these energies as they move through. There may come waves guilt, depression, anger, and other negative emotions even though the person usually has no memory of the event that created those emotions.
As a person spiritually evolves and begins to see the world from a higher level, they often recall situations and interactions from their past where they spoke words or took or didn’t take actions that they should have often causing regret and guilt too overwhelm emotions. When a person remembers actions taken in an earlier state of consciousness, they can be shocking when viewed from a new and higher state of consciousness. “I can’t believe I said that.” or “I am so embarrassed and ashamed by what I did or said to…” The person knows that that they would never act in the same way now but the regret and guilt can be intense. Guilt is often the reason underlying the actions of someone who is always angry, demeaning, and hateful toward others–unknowingly aiming these emotions at themselves.
Guilt is experienced by those living fully on the three dimensional level as well. Failing to meet societies often impossible standards of being right or successful often brings guilt and frantic actions (good and bad) and activities to change things and meet the world’s criteria for success.
The secret to moving beyond guilt regardless of where it came from is to first acknowledge that everyone including self is on earth to experience, learn, and eventually evolve to a consciousness of oneness with God/Source. No one can live a state of consciousness they have not yet attained and so everyone is simply doing the best they can with the level of there state of consciousness at any given time. As a person begins to accept that past actions were simply a reflection of the state of their consciousness at that time, they can forgive themselves because they were actually living from their highest state of consciousness at that time.
God, Divine Consciousness, Source neither rewards nor punishes. God is infinitely expressing the fullness of ITself and because God is all that exists, nothing could possibly exist including myself and all life that is not in and of God. Divine Consciousness knows nothing about negativity or the illusory dreams that humans dream because God is infinitely complete, whole, harmonious, self sustained and self maintained and is all that exists. Therefore, neither guilt or any other negative emotion can have power over or be a part of any person’s true self-hood.
Society, often through the teachings of organized religion over centuries, consistently pushes the idea of humans as sin filled failures in need of saving and in ignorance of their true spiritual nature, most have blindly accept this. The time has come to move beyond these obsolete false teachings that were often used as a means to control others for personal gain and realize that most so called “God rules” even today are nothing more than man made concepts created from beliefs in duality, separation, and many powers.
The belief in duality (pairs of opposites in all areas) , separation (no connection between people, living things, and God) , and many powers other than the One Power is what constitutes the third dimensional belief system. The world is not illusion, it is spiritual, perfect, and real but mankind’s false concepts of the world constitute the illusion.
The third dimension views life on earth through an illusory stained glass window where the colors and shapes of the glass cause whatever is being looked at to be distorted. Spiritual consciousness dissolves the stained glad and acknowledges the spiritual reality underlying everything being seen. Once the Divine Nature of creation is realized and becomes an attained state of consciousness, a person can rest in silent awareness of the nothingness of negative emotions like guilt knowing that only God qualities have reality and Divine law to support, sustain, and maintain them.
Let these be the words of anyone struggling with guilt. “As I begin to examine long held concepts regarding events, interactions, and individuals and move into deeper spiritual awareness, I beginning to see more appropriate and loving ways of interacting with people and situations. I am now able to recognize, love, and honor the experiences of my life as having been necessary tools for spiritual learning. Instead of continuing to hold myself being a weak human being who has failed in many ways, I now accept that I am a Divine Being having three dimensional experiences in order to spiritually learn, grow,and evolve and I am now able to see how perfectly certain experiences taught me.
