X-Ray Vision

See through the unconsciousness.

Pause for a moment

Think of one person

you'd like to make peace with.

Even if it's only in your own heart.

You can only forgive if you realize that whatever actions have been perpetrated are the effects of human unconsciousness. In other words, what Jesus said on the cross: "Forgive them for they know not what they do."

~Eckhart Tolle

Begin here

Check in with your heart today and notice whether it feels closed towards anyone. Have you been carrying the heavy weight of unforgiveness?

An unforgiving heart keeps you connected to pain that may no longer need to be there. Use X-ray vision to look beyond another person's behaviour and see the unconsciousness behind it. When people hurt others, they're usually acting from unconscious thought and unresolved emotional pain, completely caught up in their mind-created drama.

You don't have to approve of someone's behaviour to understand it more deeply.

If your heart softens, even a little, you may find yourself able to let go of some of the pain you've been carrying. Forgiveness isn't something you force. It arises naturally when understanding replaces judgement. Today, look beyond the behaviour to the human being beneath it and discover the freedom that forgiveness brings.
