From Intolerance Forgiveness: the Way of Understanding

Reaction – Revolution – Rebirth

The 4th Gene Key deals with the way in which humans think and reflect. Within our mental construct are thousands upon thousands of reasons. The mind has to have its’ reasons.

Folly of Youth

Intolerance is often seen as something directed at others. The 4th shadow of intolerance is obsessed with why things happen when they happen. It wants answers and a deeper understanding. It is absolutely hungry for them. It’s the mental expression of our unconscious distrust in life. Because of reasons, comes blame, justification, and guilt.

You see, a world without reasons is a world unconcerned with the rightness or wrongness of something. It’s unrecognizable, ungovernable, and it’s terrifying to us. There must be a reason for all the terrible things that happen on the planet. But deep down – what if there were no reason? What if it was meant to happen just because that is what life chose? And, even though this Gene Key drives us all mad, it also drives us to question the world. In doing that, we have learned all kinds of amazing things. Life is an ongoing game...

The Answers Are Within

‘Youthful folly’ is such an apt description of us human beings – because we can barely tolerate each other. We live in this world founded on science, but the biggest questions are never quite resolved. We don’t understand how the Universe works – we’re still looking for reasons and knowledge. And that’s not enough. There are truths that cannot be answered by reason.

If you resonate with this gene key, or with logic and reasons, you probably already know all the answers. And you can’t stop looking and needing to know more. But one day, your genius is going to emerge out of the mists, and you’re going to stop needing to know. And, you’re finally going to understand. And you are going to start laughing because:

Happiness never comes through answers. It comes only when we're so tired of answers, that we just decide to live the questions fully. Then our life ‘radiates’ the answers. And finally, we can relax and be of the deepest service to the world.

Forgiveness and Freedom

Forgiveness is about understanding and only when we understand fully, can we forgive. And to understand, does not mean intellectually. The gift of understanding is of the full being – of mind and heart together. And who is it we are forgiving?

Forgiveness is freedom. With these simple words we lay the foundation of a whole new world. A world without fear. A world of friendship. A world of ease based on a trust beyond all understanding. A trust that cannot be broken, because the trust contains forgiveness within it at all moments. We surrender to this great truth. Forgiveness is Freedom. ~ 5th Sacred Seal of Forgiveness

Contemplating Forgiveness:

“We've all been fools. Fools for love. We seek the answers outside of ourselves, when all along they're inside us. The light we seek is in our own body, locked away in our DNA. It's so simple to unlock it. Just see through our own Shadows. Watch our mind, laugh at its antics, as it stumbles and trips its youthful way through the world...

As you refine the Art of Contemplation, you will realize that there are no mistakes in life. Every event is a whetstone for you to further polish the blade of your worldly wisdom. We are here to learn from our mistakes and to find the inner forgiveness to move on and become a better person.” ~ Excerpt from the Art of Contemplation
