What is the purpose of guilt?
Well, let's look at it.
Some would say that guilt is necessary to help us remember things we did that we should regret, so that,
We won't make the same mistakes again, so that,
We can feel we are learning from our mistakes, so that,
We can become more moral, more compassionate, more confident, more self respecting and more virtuous human beings, so that,
We can feel better about ourselves, so that,
Our Self Worth can rise, and so that,
Our Self Esteem can rise.
So in summary:
(A) Guilt makes our Self Worth and our Self Esteem rise.
Does statement (A) sound right to you? Well as I was elaborating it above, maybe for a moment it did, didn't it. But when I summarized the result for you, what happened?
If you haven't followed me so far I ask you to recall the feeling of guilt for yourself. Notice how it makes you feel. What does it do to your self worth, your self esteem? I'm sure you'll recognize immediately, that no matter when you feel guilt you automatically feel worse about yourself, not better.
So, if you're with me so far, you'll recognize that statement (A) is False. If so, acknowledge this to yourself. Now notice how you feel inside.
If you feel lighter, more relaxed, relieved, more at peace, like a load has been taken off you, more expansive, better in yourself then you have just had a very significant experience. This is the experience of your Divine Self reclaiming its rightful place in your physical body.
The guilt has been in your body largely to squelch this experience most of your life. So you see guilt is not only not useful, it is against you and therefore not a "human emotion".
If you are confused and would like more clarity, or if you know exactly what I'm talking about and would like to fully reclaim your rightful place in your physical body as the Divine Being that you are please visit the web site in my bio below.
