Friday, May 22, 2009 at 11:04AM In a book called, Lessons from the Light, Sandra Rogers shares insights about her physical life as well as how near death experiences (NDE) transformed her from the inside out.
Regardless of whether you have a view about NDEs, to keep an open mind serves you. Real life experience teaches you negative energy obscures and separates you from positive energy. Everyone has choices to think, feel and recharge. Ponder what you gain from these 11 points on anger and hate;
1) Anger is love's energy misused.
2) When we hate others, we hate ourselves. They are two sides of the same coin.
3) An act of hostility, like a ripple on a pond, radiates out from the giver until eternity.
4) Holding a grudge produces negative energy. It not only hurts the one you hold a grudge against, it also hurts you and others.
5) As long as you are a child of rage, you will not find the power to know your potential as a child of God.
6) When you feel tempted by the emotion of anger-retreat. Anger is not the opposite of love, indifference is. Anger is the expression of free will, often manifest as a result of feeling controlled and feeling the need to assert our willpower over others.
7) In focusing on sex, do so in Love, never in anger. Sex is a gift from God to be given as an expression of Love. Some choose to use sex selfishly, in anger as a weapon, believing it is giving them power and control.
8) When you see someone full of hatred or anger, treat them with love so that you can be an example they may later reflect.
9) Bigotry is self-hate.
10) Vengeance brings only trouble.
11) When you teach fear, you create hatred and anger.
In essence, the most profound revelation you can have is that everything is pointing to the love you either allow yourself to see or resist and selectively overlook. Awaken to see.
"Hatred is a disguised form of love. You can only hate someone whom you really wish to love, because if you were totally indifferent to that person, you could not even get up enough energy to hate him." - Sri Chinmoy
