"We have to say to you that forgiveness doesn't fit in very well with
the art of allowing, because you've got to dig up what you're
forgiving. The strange thing about forgiveness - it doesn't have to
be this way, but it often is - is that, when you hear people talking
about forgiveness they're usually talking about what they're
forgiving. 'Oh yeah, it's a terrible thing she did to me. [and with
mock anger...] But I forgive her.' [laughter] And what happens is
anything that you give your attention to activates in your
vibration. So if something has hurt you, and you are working to
forgive it, you are activating.
Forgiveness is almost exactly the same, in fact would we say it is
exactly the same, as saying 'I'm going to deactivate this thing that
hurt me'. And we would say the reason that it doesn't go very far
and the reason that people struggle so hard with the idea of
forgiveness is because they keep digging up the stuff they don't want
and keeping it active in their vibration so that they have a stream
of people they have to forgive. They forgave their mother for what
she did and kept it alive and then they had to forgive this lover and
this lover and this lover and this lover. And every day it's an
eternal quest to forgive. And we say why not just let it go and
activate something that doesn't need forgiving.
Any person is like a microcosm of the Universe. They have within
them things that you adore and things that you would rather not see.
And if you are forgiving some of the stuff you don't want to see you
are keeping it active so it becomes a bigger part of the personality
that that person is giving to you. But if you ignore that by
activating the things that you appreciate, oh that's a whole other
thing.
So we would give forgiveness a new definition. We would say the
ultimate way of forgiving is really forgetting. And the ultimate way
of forgetting really is by remembering something you want to
remember."
