The Beloved One: “It is true, my child, that in order to completely forgive, an in-depth understanding of the wrongdoer’s motivation is essential. This understanding on your part needs to be thorough, so no bitterness or resentment will remain in your heart.
“Only one Mortal understood this principle perfectly, when He in his agony, whilst being nailed to a cross, could say: ‘Father forgive them, for they know not what they do.’
“Long ago you learned that the most careless word, and practically every reckless act was unintended, because it thoughtlessly surfaced in the mind to be impulsively acted upon.
“There exist not a soul on this, your planet, who is not being tested in like manner to you in your daily trials. They are your time/space experiences that bring you the wisdom you seek. They are the needed lessons which will grow your soul when you take them to heart.
“The more pure in thought you become, the more sincere in your endeavors you will be. And the more you will be troubled by the real and perceived impurities of your mind. When remembering and realizing insincerities in actions of the past, a deeper insight will be dawning in you about that which is not ideal.
“Therefore, slowly and often painfully, step by step, the human being will learn to experience compassion towards others, as he or she learns compassion for their very selves.
“In order for you to progress, the forgiveness of self, the acceptance of self, and the loving of self are mandatory!
“Should you not love, accept and forgive yourself the way you are, the way you progress and the way you mature, you will likewise fail to love, accept and appreciate others, who are traveling their own rock-strewn path to perfection.
“Ponder these thoughts and gather the wisdom of your human entitlement, My most treasured child.”
