Reseña del libro "Embracing Guilt- From I can't forgive myself to I forgive myself (en Inglés)"
Guilt & shame are twin demons from the past, which can trouble any of us. However, in guilt, one is also susceptible to shame. The frail boundary between "I did something wrong" & "I am wrong" dissolves and hence, makes guilt a more challenging emotion to handle. Guilt distorts our reality and causes turbulence in our minds, wreaks havoc on our thoughts and emotions. It is a karma trap which can imprison anyone for entire life. It undermines our health, behavior, & relationships. The standard approaches like "let go," "move on," "substitution," & "don't think about it" worsen our condition as we try hard to bypass our suffering. Suppressing or substituting our thoughts, emotions, & feelings creates more pain. Embracing guilt is an invitation to heal against guilt. The book is aimed to understand guilt, dispel myths, explore beliefs, and ground the reader to the path of self-forgiveness and self-love through one's vulnerabilities. Embracing guilt allows us to think any kind of thoughts, stories, and reasonings about the past, without any resistance in the present moment. Embracing reduces the additional suffering which one experiences by living in denial or resisting the suffering as an integral part of life. Further, we move deeper into embracing guilt by availing the present to transform guilt into self-forgiveness and self-love. Embracing Guilt allows our hearts and minds to be touched by forgiveness & love through our vulnerabilities.
