Welcoming Forgiveness (20 min)
Forgiveness is a sacred art with profound healing potential. It has so much power that some Buddhist teachers recommend practicing forgiveness to ourselves and others twice a day for months on end. When it is practiced with such steady devotion, forgiveness starts to seem almost like a field of energy. A field is anything that has a physical quantity at any point in space. Anywhere you look in the universe, even in a vacuum, you will find fields. We are all familiar with physical phenomena such as temperature, gravity, pressure, and magnetism. All these phenomena are present at any point in space so we can think of each of them being a "field." In the same way, we can think of forgiveness almost like a field permeating the universe, including us. But we have to do the work to tune in to the frequency of forgiveness for it to perform its magic. Or if you are religious, let's express this same idea another way. Let's describe it as you having the ability to imagine Jesus or Buddha, or whoever your deity of choice is, radiating out the forgiveness directly to you and your job is to accept "God's Grace" or the equivalent in your particular faith. Feel free to add that religious dimension during the meditation if that works for you. Otherwise, just let me do the work for you and help you find the release that awaits.
