Forgiving oneself, others, and the world
An era where you cannot tell lies
Entering an era where lies are brought to light
Things that were hidden
are happening one after another, events that make everything clearly visible
and I feel the signs every day that more things like this will appear in the future🙂↕️

On the subject of forgiveness.
A few months into continuing my forgiveness prayers
It was during my morning meditation.
Regarding the trivial, small things that happen in daily life
I suddenly saw myself gently denying something or someone
or viewing things critically, and loudly asserting my own correctness
What is happening in the world
what is happening in Japan
and
the words and actions of others in daily life
I found myself criticizing them with surprising lightness
Myself, fighting with the world
I see, I see
I hadn't forgiven anything yet
Far from forgiving
the aggression within me that hadn't been healed yet
was directed toward others and the world
When we decide not to forgive
separation is born there
And we
end up living with the feeling that we are always fighting something, and I end up spending my days with the unfortunate mindset that I am a victim, I am pitiful, and it is others or society that are at fault!
While seeking peace of mind, I was choosing fear and separation myself🫢
The moment I realized it
What are you still so afraid of, myself?
I laughed at myself
By realizing this
I can shift my perspective to see that the thoughts and actions stemming from deep-seated anxiety and fear within me
are actually a reverse reaction to seeking the essence of love
Originally, fear and aggression are illusions
essentially, there is only love
and within that love, there is no separation of good and bad
We are one in love✨
These are the 3 steps↓
① Notice criticism and aggression toward others
② Shift your perspective
③ View from the perspective of forgiveness (pray to be able to forgive and to be forgiven, and entrust it to the Great Life)
By continuing these steps
fear and victim mentality will gradually fade
and the world I was seeing with eyes of separation
I think I will realize that everything is nothing but a manifestation of love
I'm doing my best😌🫧🫧🫧
As an example of a prayer↓
I acknowledge and forgive what I am afraid of
I acknowledge and forgive my weakness in still being afraid and protecting myself by attacking the outside
I acknowledge and forgive the sneakiness of sometimes pretending not to see such a self
And at night, before I sleep
I declare, 'I forgive everything I viewed from a perspective of fear today, and I sleep in peace and harmony'
and then I go to sleep
The deep peace of mind that appears when fear and aggressive thoughts disappear
is our essential nature
and that is actually always right by our side, or rather
something that has always been here
It was us ourselves
who were keeping it at a distance so as not to see it
I feel this every day as I deepen my prayers and forgiveness✨🙏✨
