- NOTE***Note: Bhante says you come back to a feeling of lovingkindness in the instructions. He meant to say, of course, a feeling of Forgiveness as this is Forgiveness meditation
Bhante discusses how to do Forgiveness Meditation. He highly recommends this practice if you are experiencing problems with going deeper in your meditation. He talks about how to do it and how to handle the resistance that comes up in your mind as you go deeper.
This is a powerful meditation that will open up your heart. 42 minutes from the Dhamma Sukha Meditation Center.

This instruction is priceless. One of the most profound meditation I have ever come across.And I have no words to express my gratitude to Bhante.
Really? I have practiced for over 3 years with no results. I now think it is nonsense
@@josephoutward how did you practice if I may ask..
@@paramitabhattacharya496 rise at 3am to sit and chant. Kept the five precepts. Studied the suttas. Nothing but a bit lower blood pressure
@@josephoutward and meditation?
@@paramitabhattacharya496 yes. That is the sitting I mentioned. Mindfulness of breath and Metta meditation.
Recalling a beautiful connection to my faith: what Jesus said about His executioners -as He was being crucified- "forgive them for they don't know what they are doing" 😯😍 ...echo to "I forgive you for not knowing , not understanding"
You are so right about that. Sometimes people do things and they don't understand that what they are doing is just not right. Later they realize they have done wrong but at the time they thought it was right - so we have to forgive them for not understanding...
thankyou so much for this dhamma sharing.
deeply grateful to Bhante Vimalaramsi..
Deep gratitude to hon Bhante Vimalaramsi and much metta 🙏🙏🙏

How is it possible that not everyone wants to hear this? Thank you very very much!
thank you, I was feeling a lot of anger and pain and this dissipated it. I'd like to go through life in a constant openess and awareness to forgive.
Checking in before day one of the online

Well explained which helps to understand how to forgive while practicing meditation. 🙏🏼.
But, how to gradually end sitting and return to normal?
💐💐💐♥️♥️♥️🙏🙏🙏

I want to know and understand, in forgiveness meditation, how to release distribution or bad / unexpected thoughts to concentrate or observe wishes
What's the other statements which one can use in FM?
Hi- Whatever statement helps you to bring up a feeling of forgiveness can be used. I forgive myself for all the wrongs I have done... for causing myself pain ...for causing others pain ... for things I can't remember I did... I forgive myself for every unwholesome action I have ever done... The statements are just to probe the mind and trigger things to arise that you need to forgive. You don't have to know what they are - that will come. Just radiate and sincerely forgive yourself and others.
Dear bhante, thank you for your response. I'm listening to your talks every day and find them extremely helpful. The biggest hindrance/problem which I have is, whenever I try the FM or loving kindness, IF a feeling arises then it's gone way to fast. So I'm struggling with keeping a feeling and 6r all the time.
I've tried for a long time now but I just can't keep a feeling as an object of meditation. So at the end of the day I'm back at mindfulness of breathing - where I'm kind of stuck since years, even with all the knowledge of your talks.
What advice would you give to all those who haven't found "their" practice yet, where they can see progress and feel comfortable with?
It is likely you are trying to hold on to the feeling. Allow it to be there- if it fades go back to your smile and just smile for a little while and it might show up again. Be very content and gentle - don't push. Check this webpage www.dhammasukha.org/trying-too-hard.html
