One of the oldest words for forgiveness is kshama in Sanskrit language, which literally means “releasing time.” This reminds me of when Lily Tomlin once said, “forgiveness is giving up all hope for a better past.” And that is the real gift of forgiveness - the unbinding of ourselves to a previous moment and no longer looking for peace in the place where we think we lost it.
This episode explores again how kind this can be to ourselves.
