#240 Forgivness - the path to Freedom & Happiness pt1 Yoga Wisdom with Acharya das

    • Spirituality

This talk was delivered in Brisbane, Australia. We explore the pivotal role forgiveness plays in our own peace and happiness. There was a full-house both here and when we covered the same topic 2 nights later on the Gold Coast which shows how many of us need this.

All the great spiritual wisdom-traditions of the world glorify forgiveness as being indispensable for authentic spiritual growth and living a happy peaceful life. So what exactly does that mean and how do we do that?

One of the verses I quoted is from an ancient yogic text which goes:

The duty of a wise person is to cultivate the quality of forgiveness, which is illuminating like the sun. The Supreme Soul (Hari) is pleased with those who are forgiving. - Srimad Bhagavatam

The talk is a bit longer than usual but there was so much interest and so many questions we broke the talk into 2 parts. Check out Part 2 for the Q&A portion.
