How to Forgive Yourself of the Past | Eckhart Tolle Teachings

In this video, Eckhart taps into how the ego creates a false sense of identity and leaves us unable to forgive both ourselves and others through associating mistakes and wrongdoings to who they are, rather than seeing them as what they actually are: a manifestation of unconsciousness.

Don't blame yourself for being unconscious in the past NOW you are awake, dont waste time now by regretting

[@ryu7408]

I'm Sorry For many years, I carried a deep sense of guilt with me. Which kept shifted, as soon as I apologized to a person for something. I carried the guilt with me and tortured myself for many years. Until I realized, the only person I really needed to apologize to, was myself. I have tortured myself the most. So every day, I apologize to myself, for what I did to myself. This is how I find my innocence; that I once lost, again. And by apologizing to myself, I release my guilt. And so I don't do anything to others either. Because I am at peace with myself and therefore, with the world. Therefore, if you carry guilt with you, apologize to yourself. Because you can't torture yourself and apologize to yourself at the same time. Tormenting inflicts sorrow and apologizing takes away sorrow.

[@JonasAnandaKristiansson]

Very, very few are truly fully "awake". "NOW you are awake", is true for a speck of humanity. AwakenING, yes. I have met 3 truly awake beings ( I am not one of them, and this nickname is some years old, by the way haha! ): Mooji, Byron Katie and GP Walsh

[@OsirisNin]

Being unconscious led me to being unfaithful, and it cost me the woman I love. It woke me up. The pain and grief are immense, but I’m grateful and on the path to forgiving and unconditionally loving myself and others.

[@FreshAgenda]

@@OsirisNin you get it. I'm just now beginning to see this. Unconsciousness and thinking that is me and especially just about everyone else in the world has led me to the bottom. At 48 I am now beginning to awaken. It is sad to me that most may not on this plain. I am more grateful for seeing this finally in my life than literally anything else ever.

[@JackieOgle]

@@clivejohnsonuk7721 I can only speak for what has resonated with me. These videos help so much. I was allowing my ego to dominate things. Feeling sorry or sad about the past. A person told me I needed to stop. It really shocked me but I realized she was right. Forgive THOSE in the past, have compassion for them and forgive and surround them the white light and send them that on its way. I do it daily! Also when you feel yourself slipping back, ask to be brought back to the present. Take a deep breath or two focus on now. I'm on same journey too. It's a learning process and we 're all learning as we go. Focus on present what's good now. See a bird or flower in the sun. Hug your dog. Sounds so simple but it helps not go there in your mind. Also, forgive yourself. Blessings and hugs. Blessings and hugs.

He made me think of what Jesus said: "Forgive them because they know not what they do." Same applies to our own unconsciousness. You do better when you know better. That sort of thing. Thank you Eckhart Tollee, once more.

I think the hardest part is remembering that forgiving is not condoning the action or behavior. It's keeping the guilt and anger from eating you up inside. Forgiveness is clearing the way for deeper consciousness.

And this life is just a blink compared to forever and ever. Our suffering earns us rewards in heaven. Blessed are those who mourn for they will be comforted.

I remember living with forgiving myself. Then I had others bring my past up and it reopened my wounds. I discovered forgiveness for the self also includes forgiveness of others. I don’t mean they need to forgive you, I mean you need to forgive yourself on behalf of others too so you may move beyond that hindrance. Even if they continue to hold a grudge, walk without that cloud above your head. It can remove you from peace and disrupt your will power. You don’t have control over others thoughts, but you do have control over your self perception. Others thoughts can become your self if you allow them to influence you. So don’t allow it.

It hit me that he us right when he said, “true forgiveness is when you realize there’s nothing to forgive.” (Obviously paraphrased.) I had a father who was a raging alcoholic, was abusive, humiliated the family, etc., and yet, even as it was happening, I forgave him because I felt sorry for him, and I (at age 66) haven’t felt the need to go to counseling to rehash the past and play the victim.

[@TerriblePerfection]

Years ago I met a woman whose father had sexually abused her when she was young. When she told me that she later went to him as an adult to forgive him, I remarked how admirable I thought it was that she could do that. But she said, "I didn't do it for him. I did it for me." Then I understood.

I had a NDE around the age of 8 or so because that bitter, violent female that was supposed to be my mother was in terrible pain. At that time, I heard and felt 'SOULS" around me speaking to me. I felt them.They said I should have compassion for her. I didn't try to hurt her, but I don't see why more could not be done for her like what was done for me. I am what is called 67 now, but after reading 200 books or so, I know that I am an eternal energy and light being constantly being created by the electrical energy field being everyone calls souls. The quarks that are bursting forth spinning billions of times a second as 3 points of light are these souls. We are the holographic projections of these souls that everyone calls physical, except for me. So intensely and densely formed these bodies are that we don't see through them, even though they are light. Death is dependent on being physical, BUT nothing is physical. INTELLIGENCE is holographic/electrical and so are we. We are saturated and immersed within this type of reality right now. We do our best not to hurt others while at the same time being taught by those that seek revenge for a death that does not exist.

"Forgiveness is not forgetting. Forgiveness is not overlooking difficulties you have had with people in the past, for that becomes emotionally and intellectually dishonest. You cannot make something good that was not good without deceiving yourself and becoming dishonest regarding your feelings. Forgiveness here must be something that enables you to see another person clearly and to derive learning from that experience and from that relationship."

I'm Sorry For many years, I carried a deep sense of guilt with me. Which kept shifted, as soon as I apologized to a person for something. I carried the guilt with me and tortured myself for many years. Until I realized, the only person I really needed to apologize to, was myself. I have tortured myself the most. So every day, I apologize to myself, for what I did to myself. This is how I find my innocence; that I once lost, again. And by apologizing to myself, I release my guilt. And so I don't do anything to others either. Because I am at peace with myself and therefore, with the world. Therefore, if you carry guilt with you, apologize to yourself. Because you can't torture yourself and apologize to yourself at the same time. Tormenting inflicts sorrow and apologizing takes away sorrow.a

Because you can't torture yourself and apologize to yourself at the same time. Tormenting inflicts sorrow and apologizing takes away sorrow.g

A very good idea. I too have caused myself a lot of emotional pain over the years because of my guilt for doing wrong to another. To let my emotional pain go... I'm going to also forgive myself every day for the past trauma I've caused to another. Really good idea Ryu. Thank you indeed.

Being conscious assists a lot with inner peace as well. One is able to self reflect based on one particular occurrence and see it in different ways, different perspectives, which allows one to move away from self judgement

Ingorance is bliss. Trying to figure out if we're offending others if we just can't see it is a waste of time. If we aren't offended it's not our business to be concerned about our offenses on others. My mind tries to question if i was being rude or obnoxious out of fear of rejection. But if I can't actually find it obnoxious in myself, then it would be more ego, if I bought into the idea and start trying to rectify it. Thanks Eckhart.

This guy just gave me some relief from very persistent grief and guilt. Trusting that there's a deeper I that doesn't need a permanent ego. I think we do need a constantly changing one though, in order for us to function. Otherwise how do we individuate ? How do we notice and change patterns of behavior without associating actions with ourselves and accepting that we are doing something consistently ?

Thank you Eckhart, my name is Bastiaan van Halteren i am 20 years old. i had a awakening 2 weeks ago, i was very alert and present, for about 10 days. but a few days ago my 'depression' i will call it, came back. And it came back really really intensly. Now there is a lot of sadness like really a lot and pain trough out the day. Everything i look at is sad and i cant really connect with people anymore i cant get into that funny flow. And i dont know how much more i can take. I kind of wish i was just a normal kid with no pain and who could just fit in and go to parties. I sometimes can see the beauty of the alone path but its getting overwelmed by the sadness in this part of my journey. I dont know if u already have but i havent seen any videos of u talking about it, but can u talk about life after awakening and why emotions come back so so strong. I love u bro😂❤
