Anna - The ideas that we are either doing good or bad, right or wrong has been the theme pushed into us from our cultural upbringing.
Here is a dream from an American woman - Ethan says to me, "My daughter had a dream about a jury. What can it mean?" I say, "You idiot! She is the jury and the judge!" He says, "But what does it mean?" "It means," I speak slowly and witheringly, "that she is feeling guilt. She is sitting in judgement of herself." He sits back and looks sad and guilty.
I saw a few years ago that Life offers us the opportunity to be anything and do anything. It included being a murderer or an angel. There was no judgement except what we put on ourselves. But there was a response to everything we do or think, and we need to be able to see what that response will be. The reason was that if as so many people say, “Why does God allow so much evil in the world?” Well, if it were not so then we would all be robots ‘doing good deeds’. We would not have the measure of free will to test ourselves against everyone else.
Mistakes are ways of learning. Without them we would not be learning as much or as well. Life is incredibly forgiving.
Once when, during a LifeStream experience, I had been crushed by a world I had created and carried on my shoulders - a waking dream. It was a world created by my religious beliefs, and I had thrown the world off of me. Then I was standing in a wonderful light, and I realised that my wrists were chained together. So I held out my hands to the Light and asked God to take the chains off me. I felt a wonderful smile from the light engulfing me and heard a voice saying, “Tony, I love you. I would never put chains on you, you put them on yourself.”
