Forgiveness: The Way To Renewal
The substance of the Soul is
light and the essence of the Soul is love; the experience of the Soul is joy
and the dimension of the Soul is timelessness. These essential qualities
generate the Soul’s activity in the material worlds which can be summed up in
the well-known phrase “See, I make all things new”. This experience of renewal
is the spiritual reality of the Soul perceived by all knowers and mystics down
the ages including our present time too. Eventually it will be the unmediated
experience of all.
But a problem that many people
face in realising this effect of the Soul is that so much interfering thought
and emotional distortion come between one’s personal consciousness and the
inner reality which we are ever seeking to find. An even bigger obstacle comes
from our refusal to ‘let things go’. We can become stuck in a world where only
memory is real. We find ourselves clinging to the past, for we fear the abyss
of uncertainty which we call the future and are dismayed by the smallness of
the fleeting present moment. But actually it is this infinitely small point in
time that is the gateway for our expansion into the presence of the divine Now
which is the only place where creativity and transformation can truly take
place.
A particular hindrance to this
realisation is our attachment to the wrongs that have been done to us. These
can become chains that bind us to the past and prevent us living and serving
fully in the present. All spiritual traditions recognise this problem and
address it in a dual way. Firstly we are urged to cultivate non attachment.
This works on our emotional reaction to injury – both accidental and,
particularly, intentional. Once achieved a true detachment will release us from
these “ties that bind”.
Secondly we are asked to forgive.
Forgiveness doesn’t mean that ‘everything is all right’. But it does mean
penetrating through to a deeper level of perception where something of the
causative chain of events becomes clarified, and we begin to see the truth in
the saying: “To understand all is to forgive all.” Because of this illumined
understanding, one can now grasp the opportunity of the present moment to
redirect all the energies and forces involved into positive channels.
In this way forgiveness
transmutes the law of cause and effect from the vicious circle of
vengeance – of ‘an eye for an eye’ – into the creative spiral of progressive
goodness. Forgiveness is thus the great agent of release, transformation and
renewal for all, enmeshed as we are in the imperfections of the human condition.
The initiating actors in this are true examples of people absorbing the karmic
consequences of specific situations with sacrificial love, and as a consequence
lifting all humanity nearer to the light in the spirit of renewal.
