Please
Forgive Me
The Blame Game has ended.
In our old way of dreaming, in what the Toltecs call “The Dream of the Planet,” we learned and believed that we were responsible for how other people felt-- and other people were responsible for emotions we felt. If someone’s feelings were hurt, we knew we caused it. If we were happy, we let whoever was making us happy know that they should keep doing whatever it was that made us feel good.
We also learned to ask for forgiveness when we hurt someone’s feelings, and expected others to apologize to us.
The Toltecs teach us that each of us “dreams” our reality, by filtering and distorting the information being collected by our eyes, ears, and other senses into a little virtual reality in our minds. If this is true (which I certainly believe it is) then nobody can hurt you or make you angry or happy-- you can only use them and the way you filter and distort them to make yourself hurt, angry or happy. It is the story you tell yourself about what happened that creates the emotional reaction.
So, the next time that you imagine someone has hurt or happied you, try this: Ask THEM for forgiveness for using them to hurt or happy yourself!
“Please forgive me for using you to hurt my feelings.”
“Please forgive me for using you to make myself angry.”
“Please forgive me for using you to make myself happy.”The Blame Game has ended.
And you are free. Free to be responsible for your own reality, and free to transform the Dream of your Life as you desire. No one else is responsible for how you dream but you, and you are not responsible for how any one else dreams you in their dream.
This is Personal Freedom. This is the goal of the Toltec teachings. This is the New Dream of Heaven on Earth. Are you ready to transform YOUR dream?
You make me very happy when you do!
