The Fundamentals of Forgiveness: Clearing Your Unconscious

By: Kenrick Cleveland..

"Forgiveness means that you do not hold others responsible for your experiences." ~Gary Zukav

What do you have in your attic (or basement)? Old clothes that don't fit anymore? Paperwork that you'll never need? The children's old toys that they don't care about anymore, but to which you have a sentimental attachment? Maybe boxes and boxes of things that belonged to a deceased relative that you do not need?

Maybe these things are holding you back, maybe they're not. They are certainly weighing you down, if not physically, perhaps psychologically. But unless you have a problem with 'collecting' or being a pack rat, then the stuff in your attic might not be that big a deal.

What about the things you store in your mind? You'll find some memories there of the pleasures of living--weddings, anniversaries, births--maybe some sadnesses--deaths and loss. These are what make up a complete life, the highs and lows, ebb and flow. You've also got knowledge and appreciation up there, as well as all of your abilities--how to bake a cake, change your oil, ride a bicycle.

I'm going to show you a way to discard this junk through the simple act of forgiveness.

The ultimate purpose of forgiveness is not to make you a better person, it's not to benefit the person you're forgiving, and it's not even to make you right with God or work out your karma (though these are all side benefits of forgiving).

Forgiveness has the potential to remove the obstacles that are holding you back and preventing you from achieving your dreams. By clearing out the unconscious, you figuratively remove a huge chunk of negativity.

We can turn to the Bible for this: 'By beholding we become changed.'

This means, that the more you focus on, the more you are going to become what that focus is. Are you focusing on creating money or on debt? Are you focusing on health or on sickness?

If we're focused on bitterness and challenges and lessons hurt, then a part of us is, all day, every day, bringing a piece of that to our lives over and over. I believe that one of the greatest reasons we are here on planet earth is to learn to understand that we're here to be able to manifest anything we want.

Let's divide up our unconscious mind into sections and let's say that we can lump all of our troubles, our problems, our bitterness, our resentments, all into one area of our unconscious. For sake of argument, let's say we've done that now.

What percentage of your unconscious is being consumed by that mental garbage?

If we assign a numerical value, a percentage, to how much of your other than conscious is being used up with this negativity, how much would be too much? One percent? Five percent? What if you're really good at holding onto resentments and anger and you've got a whopping 15% tied up thinking about that person that did you wrong? Now consider that this percentage is the amount of income you are figuratively forced to give to a really lousy cause, a horrible cause, like you have to give 15% of your income to furthering illiteracy or killing dolphins. How would that sit with you?

The process of forgiveness is how to clear that out.

Coming soon: Part II--the process of forgiveness is mapped out for you.
