Turn the other cheek: learn why you should do good even to those who hurt you

“One of Christ’s lessons in offering the other side of his face to the aggressor has a broader meaning than we imagine. And this teaching is symbolic. Mestre wanted to show us the importance of loving our enemies and doing good even to those who disappoint us – and without expecting anything in return!

In practice, Christ showed that we should not return pain or respond with rancor or disrespect. On the contrary. Whenever we repay with kindness the harm that someone has caused us, we raise our vibratory frequency and help to improve the situation a little more. energy from the planet.

This mission is very difficult, no doubt. And if you are unable to return good for evil, stop and say a prayer for that person. Then, get out of her sight. No one needs to come face to face with danger. Sometimes retreating is the best way out. Go back, review the situation and forgive. Yes, forgive!

After all, taking care of our well-being and carrying out the mission we have in this world is enough of a task for a lifetime! Imagine, then, still trying to change the other. Avoid doing this. Each one has their project to execute in this incarnation. Right or wrong, it’s up to the person to decide which path to follow.

As Augusto Cury wrote in the book The seller of dreams (Ed. Academy of Intelligence), “do not fear external defamation”. Fear only those who want to enter your thoughts to destroy your essence. Everything else, believe me, is of no importance…

Peace and light!”
