Forgiveness: Letting go of Judging our Judgments

Forgiveness can be simply defined as:


Looking at the ego without judgment


But what does that really entail at a practical level?  It simply means that we begin the process of letting go of our ego (special self identity) by not judging ourselves when we have thoughts of condemnation.  As long as we continue to condemn ourselves for judgmental thoughts of others (which are really condemning thoughts of who we think we are -- the tiny special ego self that separated from God) then forgiveness is not possible.


Parting thought:  Today I can forgive by simply choosing to look at my judgments without judgment (guilt or condemnation)
