Shame, Guilt and “Judgmental” Nonsense
On Shame, Guilt, “Judgmental” – regarding facebook comments from attempts by others to silence truth, and bring false unity based in ignorance of truth. Speaking truth is more important than not wanting to be seen as a “bad” or “mean” person because someone can’t handle what they are a part of.
Quote: “You see, it’s a journey. We are all at different stages of our evolution. So if people just continue to buy animal products, don’t shame them. That’s divisive. And it’s judgmental.”
Response: What are shame and guilt? They are physiological reactions from your emotive capabilities that signal to you when you have done something wrong. The emotional compass in life is very useful if we listen to it. Most people have a stagnant or deadened conscience that they don’t pay attention to or listen to.
Shame and guilt are necessary to be felt if you are doing something wrong in order to understand it is wrong. Telling people the truth and having the truth of what they are participating, consenting and supporting show them their wrongdoings through their own expression of consciousness known as emotions is excellent. It puts them back into connection with themselves, what is right, good and true. Insults and offenses are derived from themselves by going against their own “soul”-“spirit”-consciousness-self, Natural Moral Law, higher will and higher self potential. They are in opposition and don’t want to face it. That is what the emotion signals.
Doing something wrong, and feeling it is wrong. Guilt, shame, or whatever else are valid emotions because they tell us something. Do not sacrifice or compromise the truth. Whatever people feel is their issue. Speaking the truth of the situation is not “judgmental” or trying to “shame” them. They judge themselves, and they shame themselves by doing what they do. It is simple. I don’t do it to them, they do it to themselves. That is the truth. And then we are supposed to not try to offend their delicate sensibilities of false self-images and self-concepts they have about themselves? Yeah right! Truth unites. Lies divide. No compromise. No sacrifice. It just slows down the progression of truth.
How did I come to change my ways? I faced myself, my wrongs, and decided and didn’t want to be part of it. Shame, guilt, offense, insult, are part of that journey. Thank you shame and guilt for expressing yourselves in me so that I could face myself. I welcome it and everyone should welcome these teachers into our lives. Enough of this nonsense of not telling people what is going on and what they participate in because we don’t want to be perceived as “mean” or “judgmental”. Truth wins over the false unity of trying not to offend other egos. Truth unites. Lies divide. Love embraces truth. Fear rejects truth. Those who can’t handle the truth, reject it, and shame and guilt might not even arise because they have not begun from the place of love to embrace truth, rather choosing ignorance in fear to live in feel-good comfort about themselves.
Peace.
If you would like a more in-depth breakdown of Judgments and the confusion, I break it down etymologically and explain it in greater detail here: Judgments (New Age Confusion)
Mark Passio, “cut off the causers”, WOEIH #151, 71m.
“Cut off the causers… Is this the equivalent of guilting someone? Yes. There is a reason that guilt exists. There is a reason that the emotion of guilt exists, it is to be felt. Just like anger exists, it is to be felt. When something is going wrong, when something is unjust, inequities are taking place around us, injustice is taking place around us, that is what anger is there for, to be felt in the physiology, so that you will get up off your rear end, get motivated to do something to change that condition. Guilt is there for a reason too. It is to make people understand that what they are doing is immoral… That emotion will help [you] come out of that dark Satanic mindset.”
“A concentrated campaign of hammering the truth of Natural Law into people, to get them to understand that what they are doing is wrong and needs to stop. This is what people don’t want to hear. They want to hear what they should be doing. No, I will tell you what you should not be doing. The solution lies in the negative pathway [apophasis, wei wu wei]. The New Age Kool-Aid wants you to think it is all about building something new, no, it is about stopping doing what you are doing that is immoral and then the world will change, and then it won’t be enslaved anymore. No one wants to hear this, they want to hear crazy over-the-top complicated solutions involving doing all kinds of new things. This is not how the world will change, we don’t need anything new, we need to stop doing what we are currently doing that we have no right to continue to do. Why does no one want to hear this? It firmly places the responsibility on your shoulders, you are the one who is causing it by your behavior, and they do not want to hear this. People always want to believe it is someone else and always want to point the finger [before looking at themselves and their own behavior].”
“Giving ultimatums [x amount of time to change, if not, then we are out of their lives, cut them off]… We need to get hard-core. We need to start making these people do what they are doing with no support from us. The idea of supporting these people needs to be withdrawn. Is that guilting them? Yes it is. Is it right? Yes it is. Somebody would have every right to withdraw all interactions with another human being, disown them as a family member.”
“Pressure is required to create change. It will not just happen willfully, all of a sudden just admitting they were wrong the whole time. Someone will have to make them see it… This is a full expression of the masculine force of truth. ”
“If mothers, sisters, brothers, fathers, daughters did that, maybe we would start to make progress on these people. Because, just sweet talking to these people and handing them a DVD that they will never watch will never get it done, it is not the way to do the Great Work… It will take a level of extremity that most human beings are not prepared for. ”
– Mark Passio
The easy way to force a change in another person’s thinking is to deprive him of a desired opportunity unless or until that change is made.
– Richard Wetherill, Right is Might, pg. 12
We can hope only to surround the prejudiced person with patterns of influence and example that will demonstrate a better way of life. If need be, influence and example can be supplemented with stronger devices such as withdrawal of support. When a large number of persons actually participate in a movement of that sort, whether organized or spontaneous, those who refuse to change will inevitably ensure their own downfall.
