RE: Emotional Healing: Having Guilt Does NOT Mean You Have Done Something Wrong (Or Are Wrong) (Other than having listened to blame!)

in #freedom6 years ago

You said, Guilt doesn't create movement of energy that is why it's not an emotion. You also said that if the action of the will is accepted, guilt will be non existent. I understand but guilt most times arises when we engage in actions contrary to our belief and this feeling of guilt creates a response in us that could either be positive (correction of the action generating the guilt) or negative ( sadness, fear and remorse) and these occurs in our emotion because they are all emotional responses( movement of energy).

Thanks for responding thus far, it's really interesting sharing thoughts with you. Let me not go further so that you won't get angry. Would love to converse with you some other time. Thanks

I do not get angry due to conversation and in any case there is nothing wrong with anger - the problem is guilt and denial that warps the anger and turns it into something dangerous ;)

You are assuming that all beliefs about behaviour, which our emotions desire to go against, is correct - when in reality many of our beliefs are false and thus we feel blamed for our true emotional response. The belief that anger is wrong is one of the most destructive beliefs we can hold. Other destructive beliefs that are commonly held include 'I must have manners in order to be accepted', 'There is a certain order to life on earth and must not go against it', 'I cannot be both good and feel good'. Guilt does not create a response so much as simply is a twisting of our emotional response. The twisting could create a new emotional response, but is not so likely to because the overall quality of guilt is that it is entropic (leading to death and loss of vibration) - it does not feel good.

Your analysis are quite indept. You seem very knowledgeable in emotional responses. That's nice! It's nice chatting with you.
