Spirit Communications through Trance Mediumship/Channeling:

Revenge

Someone asked Hai a question about "vengeance". It is rare for him to make particular requests about what we post on the web site, but on this occasion he made a point of asking us to post his response.

Q: Is it true that the saying: "Vengeance is mine sayeth the Lord" came from the Bible, Hai? And what does it mean? We understand from you and from Spiritualism that we judge ourselves. Is it a man made expression?

Hai: No, it’s not an expression of religion. No, it is not a case of: “Vengeance is mine sayeth the Lord”. You are right that this is not correct. This is not true, for there should be no vengeance. There is no room for vengeance in the Divine Light, in the Divine Love. No room for vengeance. There must be responsibility for our actions, for our karmic actions, our responsibilities. But it is not a matter of vengeance. For vengeance helps no one. Vengeance corrects nothing. Vengeance puts right nothing. None of this is of help, of assistance, of Truth. For vengeance breeds more vengeance.

For if I kill your brother and you seek vengeance on me and you kill me, then my brother will seek vengeance on you and so on and so on for all eternity. Therefore vengeance gets us nowhere. It creates a cycle of hate, a never-ending circle of hate. So it is of no usefulness. It is of no help to us in our loving life. Therefore, vengeance must be put aside; even by those who have been seriously aggrieved, seriously wronged. It helps them not to seek vengeance. They lose from their heart that love for that loved one whom they have loved, whom has been taken away from them. And in losing this love, this heart of love, they lose the life which they shared with their loved one. They lose the love, which they gave to their loved one, for their heart becomes contaminated with the seed of hatred. Therefore vengeance can help no one. Vengeance is no truth. It breeds hatred, breeds discord, breeds confusion. Therefore, it is of no usefulness. If one is lost due to the actions of another, though our impulse may be to hurt this other, to seek vengeance from this other, we should put this to one side; for we should remember the love which we have given to our loved one. We should remember them in our hearts. We should remember their face, their being, their personality, their persona in our hearts and not fill our hearts with the seeds of hatred and vengeance. For this does even greater violence to the memory of our loved one and their own death.

Q: I always accepted that saying when I was young but not so now.

Hai: Mankind is old now but yet still young, yes? But tis like "day one wisdom", yes, "day one wisdom". No good for now, this present day. We should have grown up by this time. We should have developed an understanding by this time, an appreciation of love, of life, of Eternal Life.
