When we learn that we are the unaffected Self, but we still feel affected by things that happen in the world, we often think we are guilty for feeling affected. Today’s reading says that is not true. We are not guilty.
The idea that we are guilty for not being fully awake to Self is simply another false ego idea. Since it is a false idea, it is an idea we can let go of.
Instead of believing you are guilty when you feel affected by something in the world, simply watch your emotional reaction. Practice rest-accept-trust. When you watch an emotional reaction or practice rest-accept-trust, you are abiding as the true Self. When you feel guilty, you are falling for another ego shenanigan.

Thoughts of Awakening # 182
Aliveness has a Voice.
It is the Voice for all,
because Life
is the one unifying field.
When appearances are seen
as having no meaning,
the Voice for Life is clear.
When appearances are seen as meaningful
and requiring a response for salvation,
the Voice for Life may seem weak,
or it may not be heard at all.
Let go of appearances.
Trust what your eyes cannot see.
~From our Holy Spirit
