Default Re: How to never feel the emotion guilt again.

Do the right thing from now on. A man with a busy and virtuous life should be able to avoid guilt.

I disagree, shame and guilt are the principle tools enforcing any social norm. The only way to escape them would be to cease to be human. Even a hermit feels guilt.

I've never felt guilty about anything I've done. There have been fleeting "gee...I shouldn't have done that, won't do it again" type moments, but no guilt.

I'm pretty sure that's not uncommon. Why would anyone who acts mostly in accordance with their conscience feel guilty?
