To forgive is to set a prisoner free and discover that the prisoner was you.
- Ivan Doig "Lewis. B. Smedes"
To forgive is to set a prisoner free and discover that the prisoner was you.
To exercise forgiveness is a great act. Forgiveness is equal to ablutions at all places of pilgrimage. Forgiveness ensures your salvation. There is no virtue equal to forgiveness.
Forgiveness is the key to action and freedom.
I forgive all living beings of the universe, and may all living beings forgive me for my faults. I do not have any animosity towards anybody, and I have friendship for all living beings.
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned.
