Cheating in college

[Kris855]

Posted this topic also in ocd thread but since I am still in fear and pain I decided to ask. Have you ever cheated in college or highschool. I sometimes did and now years later i feel so guilty. I am even thinking to go to my university and confess because fear of hell. But that would mean I lose mu job. Has anyone any experience to share?

I don t think much difference cause i was lausy cheater I was too scared to get caught. I remember being jelous of those who i looked cheated with such a cool nerve. What else causes me guilt is my entrance exam to MCs degree. I don`t know how but there was situation where people spoke and showed each other with hand signs what answer is right a,b or c. I also benefited from that and did not ignore what information others gave. I have no idea if i would have gotten in without that extra help. Test was hard but I also had extreme anxiety isuues even back the so i dont know. I never planned to cheat, because this situation just happened in front of my eyes. It was 11 years ago. I ve been working in the field 8 years by now.

If the cheating did not interfere with your acquiring the knowledge you need to do your job in a safe and professional manner, then repent and be done with it.

I have a different outlook on this realm of existence than most. I think we are here to learn and grow spiritually. The question I ask is, "Did you learn from that experience so that now you don't cheat?"

If you answer 'yes' then walk away from the failure and embrace the fact that you learned from the moral failure and grew spiritually into a better person. And that is, after all, why we are here.

And lest you get overly excited about the new, improved you, It is my experience that each time we accomplish a spiritual growth, the world presents to us another opportunity to learn and grow.

Watch for those opportunities and use them to help you understand ever higher levels of spirituality.
