Only what happens in time can make you suffer. Only what happens in the mind. Suffering does not exist without time and the mind. Neither does judgment. They are tools of the mind and ego.
Your struggles, pain, self-judgment and sorrow all need time, memory, imagination and the mind to bring you to torture yourself. It is the idea of loss, alone-ness, self-judgment and no escape, that gives the ego and mind the power to punish you. This poison resides in the unconscious till a time comes when it must be dealt with and seen for what it is. All punishment and judgment are by the mind and ego trying to justify their actions, trying to punish the offender.
The ego is the offender and the judge and this merry-go-round of injustice creates a manic state of pain within the mind that needs relief but can’t find any.
Forgiveness exists beyond the mind, beyond the mechanism of thought and ego. You cannot forgive yourself as long as the ego is judging you, as long as you say “If I had not done that?”
It is though acceptance that understanding comes and not judgment, as well as forgiveness. It is knowing that heals the pain within and not the counsel of the mind and ego.
