Spiritual And Emotional Health Through Restitution For Real Guilt
By The Pathwork Guide
Greetings, my dearest friends. Divine blessings and love are with you now, and on this Path all the way. I also welcome the new friends who are here for the first time. To them I should like to say that this lecture may not be easy to follow, especially if the previous lectures are not known and understood. Even then it would not be easy to really follow because this material is particularly directed to areas and levels of the psyche that are accessible only after certain blocks and obstructions have been dissolved by this work. My friends who are on this Path have taken considerable time in doing very intensive work and have thereby reached these accessible areas. Hence, it may be that the new friends may feel an echo here or there in their souls. This is not as easy and as painless as it may appear, yet it is really the only way
that leads to fulfillment.
Now let us continue. In my last lecture we discussed real guilt. Quite a long time ago I discussed real guilt versus false guilt, but at that time it was not possible to go into that subject in more detail because you were not ready then. Many areas of your psychic life had to be explored and understood before it was possible to face and come to terms with the real guilts that always lie behind the false ones.
However, not all of my friends will immediately be able to go into this phase of the Pathwork. But sooner or later you will come to this point, provided you proceed in your sincere endeavors. Once you have groped your way through the maze of your various images and misconceptions, you will be able
to come face to face with your real guilts.
In all the time we have spent together we have, thus far, gone through two major phases. Of course, there are some subdivisions, but in a brief overall review it will be seen that when we first started I told you about the importance of man purifying himself; that is, indeed, the real meaning of life, and the way of fulfilling himself. Then there came the next phase in which we deliberately shied away from even using such a word as purification. In this phase we were concerned with looking at the self without the thought of "right or wrong." I often stated that there was a good reason for this, but I do not believe that the majority of you really understood the reason. Perhaps now you will understand.
