The Illusion of Two Steps Forward and One Step Back
Video message based on Facebook post of November 4:
Please do not feel discouraged if you think you’ve taken a step backwards on your journey. In the illusionary world there is such a thing as two steps forward, one step back, for that is the dance of the ego. In reality, every moment is in one way or another helping you reach a higher level of consciousness. The ego would have you feel bad, less than, judge yourself, or blame others for this step back. In reality there is never a need to feel this way, because every step, knowingly or not, is helping you reach your true destination, the state of peace. What the ego has programmed you to see as a step back, is actually helping you obtain the knowledge you need, so that next time that type of situation occurs, you have a better understanding of how to deal with it in a more peaceful, productive, loving and self-loving manner. And so that “step back” is actually propelling you “forward”. Today we do not buy into the ego’s thought system and put others or ourselves down; instead we bless both the “steps forward” and the “steps backwards,” with the knowledge that in truth they are both equally helpful and needed to reach our destination.
