Heartbreak, Forgiveness and Growth

PRESENTED BY Eva LaRue | Aug 28, 2017

13 MINS

Television and film actress Eva LaRue goes through heartbreak—“an aching, crippling grief”—after a career low and the end of her marriage. “It left me feeling like a gutted shell of myself,” she says, “someone I didn’t even recognize any more.” To find authentic joy, she goes through a spiritual process of stripping away her preconceptions and her self-limiting ideas and finding a way to forgive the past.

Excellent talk! In a letter written on behalf of the Guardian it states that often in time we look back at a situation we thought was awful at the time but now we see the test was a benefit to us!

Yes, unforgiveness is like drinking poison yourself and waiting for the other person to die ~ and forgiveness is the key to unlock the thousand doors of the egoic mind and unwind it back to God, into the infinite freedom, joy and love of the Spirit and Divine Presence. The Prophet called the spiritual Way ”tazkiyah al-nafs” meaning “purification of the self” or the “purification of the (spiritual) heart”. Every true religion is a system of purifying our inner self to become mirrors of spiritual excellence and light.

Force is losing its dominance, and mental alertnes

Force is losing its dominance, and mental alertness, intuition, and the spiritual qualities of love and service, in which woman is strong, are gaining ascendancy. Hence the new age will be an age less masculine and more permeated with the feminine ideals, or, to speak more exactly, will be an age in which the masculine and feminine elements of civilization will be more evenly balanced. - #AbdulBaha #Bahai #Spirituality #Women #EmancipationofWomen

Act in such a way that your heart may be free from hatred. Let not your heart be offended with anyone. If some one commits an error and wrong toward you, you must instantly forgive him. Do not complain of others. Refrain from reprimanding them, and if you wish to give admonition or advice, let it be offered in such a way that it will not burden the bearer. Turn all your thoughts toward bringing joy to hearts. Beware! Beware! lest ye offend any heart. - #AbdulBaha⠀ ⠀ #bahai #spirituality #joy #love

One must see in every human being only that which is worthy of praise. When this is done, one can be a friend to the whole human race. If, however, we look at people from the standpoint of their faults, then being a friend to them is a formidable task. - #AbdulBaha⠀

Let each morn be better than its eve and each morr

Let each morn be better than its eve and each morrow richer than its yesterday. Man’s merit lieth in service and virtue and not in the pageantry of wealth and riches... Dissipate not the wealth of your precious lives in the pursuit of evil and corrupt affection, nor let your endeavors be spent in promoting your personal interest - #Bahaullah #Bahai #Spirituality #Unity #SpiritualGrowth
(Tablets of Bahá’u’lláh)

The first sign of faith is love. The message of the holy, divine Manifestations is love; the phenomena of creation are based upon love; the radiance of the world is due to love; the well-being and happiness of the world depend upon it. Therefore, I admonish you that you must strive throughout the human world to diffuse the light of love. The people of this world are thinking of warfare; you must be peacemakers. The nations are self-centered; you must be thoughtful of others rather than yourselves... - #AbdulBaha #bahai #spirituality #love #humanity #lovehumanity
