Seven levels of forgiveness


7 LEVELS OF FORGIVENESS - WHICH ONE IS YOURS?
In order to feel free, happy and satisfied, we need to constantly forgive and forget; not just to extend our love to everyone, even the people who hurt us, but also to show our love to ourselves. The energy of anger and resentment is extremely dirty. It can contaminate our aura and our chakras. The effects are not only emotional disorders (e.g. bitterness, sadness, dissatisfaction), but also physical ailments as well (e.g. High Blood Pressure, Severe Kidney Ailments, Arthritis, Asthma and even Cancer) caused by accumulation of negative lower emotions especially anger and resentment.
Based on Master Choa Kok Sui’s teachings, forgiveness is practiced by different people based on their level of maturity, and can range from Level 0 to Level 7. Reach Level 7 and see how your life gets filled with constant joy, happiness, calmness, stillness and inner peace!
Level 00 - NOT FORGIVING AT ALL
In this level, the person is unable to forgive the offender and keeps on thinking about him and the unpleasant event over and over again. According to great spiritual teachers including Master Choa Kok Sui, two things bind souls together: love and hatred. Most of the couples that have difficult relationships, parents and children who cannot get along, brothers and sisters that have a hard time being together fall under this category. They need to learn to love each other, break the wicked cycle and let go.
“Anger and Hatred bind people together! When you hate someone, it creates an “Energy Link” with the person. You become chained to the person and your Soul becomes entangled with that person. If you want to be free, you must forgive people.” - Master Choa Kok Sui
The good news on the other hand is that to break this cycle, forgiveness of one person is enough! So to avoid being with the people that seem to be a pain in the neck to us, we need to forgive them, forget the unpleasant event and let go. We can keep on blessing them with love while keeping our distance from them.
Level 01 - AT THE MOMENT OF DEATH
In this level, normally the person gathers everyone at the moment of death and forgives all and asks all of them to forgive him back. In this level, although the current lifetime seems ruined by keeping so much anger, resentment and bitterness inside, at least the future lifetimes are saved!
Level 02 - AFTER SEVERAL YEARS
Here, the soul, after several years realizes that keeping anger and resentment only affects him. In some occasions the person who has caused hurt, might not be even aware of his action. Therefore he decides to forgive and let go of the pain and suffering.
As discussed earlier, anger and resentment is like a hot coal. Justified or unjustified, it burns us inside and the effect is usually physical and emotional problems. Once the person realizes this truth, that forgiveness is for his own sake, he will forgive. Although a few years have passed in feeling unhappy and dissatisfied, the following years of life can be spent in happiness and joy.
In fact it is not always easy to forgive, especially if the pain and injury is high. Therefore some people in some cases need to consciously forgive and forget to release the pain and let go of the negative accumulated emotions. There are in fact Forgiveness Techniques that can help us forgive easier and in shorter time. Achieving Oneness with the Higher Soul reveals some of such forgiveness techniques.
Level 03 AFTER SEVERAL MONTHS
In level 3, the person has already achieved a certain level of maturity and the Heart chakra is developed to a certain degree. Therefore the person cannot keep anger and resentment for long, not more than a few months. So once he cools down and recovers from the unpleasant event, he forgives the other person and continues his life.
Level 04 AFTER A FEW WEEKS
In this level, for the person to calm down will take only a few weeks. After few weeks of entanglement with lower emotions and thinking about the unpleasant event, the person decides to let go. Forgiveness in this case gives a feeling of freedom and lightness, as though a heavy load has been removed from the system.
Level 05 AFTER A FEW DAYS
A person who forgives in a few days is already familiar with the concept of forgiveness and has experienced its effects in life. Although he is still in the process of getting more mature and developing the Heart further, he can forgive and forget in a few days.
Level 06 AFTER A FEW HOURS
Level 6 is already very high and not everybody can practice it all the time. In Level 6, the person forgives in just a few hours. Any unpleasant event or happening makes the Solar Plexus chakra work erratically. The result is experiencing lots of negative lower emotions. It is normal and natural to feel hurt, angry or irritated, but the key is not to keep holding such negative emotions inside. After a few hours, when the Solar Plexus chakra normalizes, the person can let go of the negative emotions, forgives the offender consciously and cuts the negative links connecting him to the offender. This will bring about calmness, happiness and peace.
Level 07 WITHIN A FEW MINUTES
Reaching level 7 is actually the goal. One must be able to forgive instantly. Forgiveness is the key to world peace. By practicing forgiveness and releasing the emotional pain, not only we feel centered and emotionally calm, but also can function more effectively from the mental level.
The effect is clarity of mind, calmness of emotions and harmony and peace in relationships and in life. Constant forgiveness also increases the rate of healing and brings about better health. “By Forgiving and Blessing, you stop wallowing in mud and you achieve Inner Peace and Freedom.” - Master Choa Kok Sui
Let’s make it our firm resolution…To forgive in just a few minutes and always radiate love!

The Simple Law of Karma: What Goes Around Comes Around!

  As children, our needs and requirements are very low- food, clothes, sleep. As we grow up, our wants start growing slowly and gradually. Slowly we realize as much as we work hard to achieve something, somehow we fail or the results are not satisfactory. Something holds us back. So how do we get desired results? How do we increase our earnings? How do we get higher education? How do we build our own house? In other words, how do we get prosperity? Let’s see what Grandmaster Choa Kok Sui has said in this regards. “The law of Karma is unbreakable. The  Golden Rule , when applied positively and negatively (yang and yin), will produce harmony and prosperity in your life and protect you from the vicissitudes of life.” I know what you all are thinking! How does it work? Let’s go in to a little detail. What seed would you plant if you want apples? The answer obviously is apple seeds.

Raja Yoga for Spiritual Oneness

Heaven is not here or there or anywhere. It is within you! This means that heaven is a higher state of consciousness or the gateway to heaven is within you. By meditating on the crown chakra or the blue Pearl, one can experience heaven while still having physical body.   - Master Choa Kok Sui.     In modern  Pranic healing  what we call Meditation on the Blue Pearl or Meditation on the Higher  Soul , was earlier known as Raja Yoga in ancient India. This technique of meditation is very powerful and was revealed only to a very few students in the past. Raja Yoga or Meditation on the Higher Soul is the practice of the concentration on and awareness of the ‘seed of consciousness’ or the ‘blue pearl’.   What is the need of this awareness?  Master Choa Kok Sui has said that awareness helps you to listen to the subtle voice, the whisper of your higher soul. You become aware of your Buddha nature, your soul. Awareness is necessar...
