Q:
Often when I forgive myself, I don't feel like
it really worked. Am I doing something wrong?
J-R: You appeal to the
forgiveness, and you say, "God forgive me." When you say,
"But I didn't feel anything," you are missing where the forgiveness
takes place. It does not take place in your emotions or in
your mind. You are forgiven in your Spirit, where you carry
the judgments. If you are in touch with your Spirit, you'll
feel it quickly, and you'll know that the forgiveness took
place.
Q: I got behind
on reading Discourses because I kept looking for the perfect
time to read the entire Discourse at one sitting.
JM: I probably
went through several years before I was able to read an entire
Discourse in one sitting. I'm not sure I made it until I had
finished all 144 Discourses. If I could get in 3 or 4 pages
in a sitting, that was pretty good. I was and am such a willing
out-of-the-body initiate. I am so glad that I would be chosen
to go with very little understanding or comprehension on my
part. I just couldn't stay here when I took on the Traveler
consciousness. I'm not much better at it now, but I can sort
of keep my eyes open more than I used to.
