The Law Of Forgiveness
By Mohammed
July 29, 2010
In the 11 Forgotten Laws Bob Proctor and Mary Morrissey discuss the eighth Law of the Universe, the Law of Forgiveness.
Of all the emotions, guilt and resentment are the most damaging to us. In a recent study, the levels of acidity in human sweat were measured from people whilst they were feeling different emotions. The samples taken whilst the subject was feeling guilty were the most acidic, followed closely by resentment.
Buddha gives a very good definition of anger. He says that when you are angry, it is as if you a holding a burning coal. Your anger is affecting only you and until you release it, you will continue to do so.
Jesus was once asked by his disciple, Peter, how many times you should forgive someone. In Jewish scriptures, it was said that you should forgive them three times, so Peter, knowing how much Jesus valued forgiveness, asked if it was enough to forgive seven times. Jesus said that seven times was not enough and emphasised that you would need to forgive 70 x 7 times! All religions teach of forgiveness and Jesus’ answer show just how much forgiveness we must show to the world.
When Cynthia Kersey first met Bob Proctor, she had a lot of anger in her life. She asked Bob how she could better channel this anger. Bob advised her to do something more than her anger by finding something she was passionate about. Within the next few days, Cynthia met the founder of Habitat for Humanity and was inspired by her story. She committed to doing something that would be greater than her anger and she decided that she wanted to help build 100 homes in Nepal. Cynthia managed to achieve this goal and, in doing so, successfully released the anger within her and replaced it with purpose and forgiveness.
Take some time today to apply the Law of Forgiveness. What guilt and resentment are you holding that is literally burning away your spirit? Try to show the level of forgiveness that Jesus advised us to show and see if these destructive emotions are reduced in your life.

So, I'm letting the guilt go. I tried to love a man who lived in the shadows of his own life. I catered to every insecurity and need to observe from far away. And I'm done doing that.
If ANY man deserves to walk down main street in the Light; be Happy and feel Secure being approached by everyday citizens - just for the sheer joy of laughing and getting to know others and becoming known - it's you.
No hats needed. No bike for anonymity. No holds Bar. Just a peeling away of All the layers of security that have wrapped you up in a torturous existence of a guilded cage. You deserve to just be a Being of Light, living within the freedom of that Light.
You deserve this to the highest possible degree. So I do too...
As Lord Buddha raced into the burning building to get out the children, I too raced into the burning building. I tried to pull you out and I've felt guilty ever since for being unsuccessful. You only became more mired: leaving behind your clothes with holes for $5,000 suits and shoes. Leaving behind the comfort of sitting on the side of the sidewalk, in the light, with a milkshake to rarely be seen at all. I've rarely felt like such a failure before. And I wallowed too. But now I'm letting that guilt go too...
And of course in the past, I wasn't successful in my own life. Yet all that's changing. I now have one of the best movie scripts out there - original and refreshing. I have new opportunities to take new paths. I have family and friends. Life is going in the right direction and by the will of H'Allah, it will continue to do so.
Maybe, one day, the ocean will crack and boil - it's possible but not preferable. It's preferable that mankind gather it's geologist, "Titan A.E." animators who studied the Teutonic plates and plastic surgeons skilled in cellulite removal/infusion and figure out how to refill the oil cavities where we have pumped out Billions of tons of oil, then figure out in what order to re-fill them, and with what material. The real question is, "Is it possible to make crude oil renewable?" I think so. Mother Earth did it without high tech just fine, so Anything is possible.
Maybe, everything will be normal and life will go on and on for several 1,000 upon 1,000 of years.
And maybe only one or two of the above and maybe none of the above...
It's all about choices. Making them from the Heart and Soul - not calculating. Living our own lives in the Light, not in the shadows. Reaching out to others. Luving others.
Letting be and letting go is what needs to be done with the negative as Thay says "composting." Not a shorning and ripping and throwing away, but a decompositon of sorts to create renewal.
Embracing and accepting is what needs to be done with the positive, living in the Light...
