My experience with forgiveness is that it sort of comes spontaneously at a certain point and to try to force it it's not really forgiveness. It's Buddhist philosophy or something spiritual jargon that you're trying to live up to but you're just using it against yourself as a reason why you're not okay.
Pema ChodronMeditation is not about getting out of ourselves or achieving something better. It is about getting in touch with what you already are.
Pema ChodronWhen we resist change, itโs called suffering. But when we can completely let go and not struggle against it, when we can embrace the groundlessness of our situation and relax into itโs dynamic quality, thatโs called enlightenment
Pema ChodronWe are all capable of becoming fundamentalists because we get addicted to other people's wrongness.
