Feelings
of incompetence can be as self inflicting of pain and as equally
dangerous to the world around us as believing yourselves to be
villainous or evil.
In this human experience of duality,
especially where we use religion as a way of healing, we can in fact
create more pain through such extremes of self belief. Religion views
healing as coming only where you are able to see yourself as the the Villain.(Satin) Evil or extremely good Godly (God)
It forces you to see the most extreme reflection of self before you will choose to change. Yet with such self revelation still many cannot see this as a healing path, as this healing through negative self belief just creates more negative self belief and can even create those who cause atrocities in the world. Some, in fact most religions teach that even natures medicines, some which also come with a belief of healing through a placebo effect, which we still know to this day works has historically has been viewed as "witchcraft." (which is still perceived by religion to be evil) In fact religion teaches more evil than it does good.
Many
spiritualists today call getting to this core belief of your darkest
self "shadow work" and whilst they label it a different way of healing,
this process is still very similar to that of religion, it takes you to a
place within your thought processing to lead you to the very extreme
of your negative thinking, back to thinking yourself to be evil. so
that hopefully in this self realization you will choose to heal this
extreme within yourself at the root core level. Knowing that this
extreme is within all people, none exempt, not even the pope, mother
Teressa nor any other saintly or God type being we may kneel to in
prayer, it is another way of causing self reflection and a realization
that perhaps there is no need to change. You are normal.
Its
understandable why people choose this path to healing their most
embedded formed self inflicting habits which harms not only yourself but
also others, whether emotionally or physically by blaming it on merely
Incompetence (many times chosen!) you will feel temporary healed. It is
easier to think of yourself as incompetent than villainous when you do
things which are hurtful to others. This opting out of taking
responsibility is also an opting out of the need to heal. Healing can
never come from this opting out of nor not taking responsibility for
what you do.
At this point of self belief you can see how you
are extremely affecting your own lives with extreme negative intentions
and thoughts of self which do not serve you, but causes more pain that
will never benefit you.
Healing is the only "sane" response to
the natural world and the true nature of who and what you are created
from and of, it is this is balanced with the true nature within you and
the world around you which bring your greatest healing balance and
contentment. Your self beliefs are powerful. None of you are purely
evil or purely good. Yet you judge yourselves with these these basic
beliefs unknowingly when you settle for feelings and self belief of "I
am merely incompetent" or "I am stupid." This is self harming on an
emotional level.
A choice of self healing must go much further than
even this and can only come through balance and acceptance of every
aspect of who you are. The knowledge that you are as equal and as
peaceful and as beautiful as the very nature of the earth that surrounds
you can bring you back to a state of grounding, the path of self
alignment with nature..Whilst accepting that it is normal that your mind
can wander to any extreme of self belief at anytime, when balanced
focused and grounded, no disconnected words of self contempt even
incompetence will alter your ability to bring you back to focused self
love and help you heal your life..
