Heart Wisdom with Jack Kornfield

CHAPTER

Forgiveness Is Crucial in Our Journey

Forgiveness is so critical in our journey. The South African Truth and Reconciliation Commission after all that happened there and Bishop Tutu writes about this. There's something in us that wants to move on because otherwise it's the Northern Irish and Catholic Protestants fighting over what happened 300 years ago. And finally with forgiveness it stops with us. I will not pass the suffering on to another generation to another person. Forgive me for taking your life, says Nachiketa Littrell who was 18 when he shot dead his fellow soldier Richard Littrell at Chulai, Vietnam. "I can't tell you what I saw. I can't telling you what I did"
