Vivir en el perdón

0:00 Bombax, why the affective relationships I have are not stable. I like assertiveness, why it invites us to prudence that what should motivate our word is always love is You and that is already the basis to go out to conquer many goals, to fight, to give a better version and enjoy life fully. You know, we need to learn to live in pertar, be able to forgive and be able to recognize our mistakes, our failures and humbly ask for forgiveness. I' m sure whoever lives an experience of forgiveness is free.

0:57 Yes, the experience of forgiveness is the action of greater freedom that we humans can experience. Today I want to insist on forgiving, that is, on living that process of healing the wound that has caused us to live that process, of being able to remember without pain. I' m convinced that when we forgive, we break up with something that' s going on in the past and then we can flow. Those who do not forgive are cooked with threads of pain in yesterday. Those who do not forgive have a heart full of resentment, something that makes it heavy and does not allow it to flow and does not allow it to be realized. The pain caused by the wound inflicted on us and the desire for revenge that arise in our hearts when they offend us, impoverish us, blind us, but above all, deprive us of the possibilities to continue to grow. Therefore, when we forgive we benefit because we somehow free ourselves from those realities that limit and impoverish us. We

2:35 are free from those realities that do not allow us to grow. That' s why, looking in your eyes at you listening to me, I have to tell you. I don' t think anyone who doesn' t forgive can claim to be completely healthy. Animosity, the desire for revenge, bitterness are really a disease. We end up not being healthy if we let those emotions settle permanently in our heart. Exaggerated sadness, the fatalistic view of life, are expressions of a heart that has not drunk of healing water, of forgiveness and then are manifesting disease. I know it' s not easy to forgive. In fact, in several episodes of our podcast we have tried to propose key tools to live a process of truth. I recognize that it is easier to talk about it. Yes, it' s much easier to put forward ideas, or I' ve seen that reality live. But I am also convinced that this is the only way to live in freedom and disposition,

4:11 to enjoy all the good that life offers from our own freedom. I am convinced that spiritual experience is an inexhaustible source of truth. That' s why I think it' s an inexhaustible source of health. That is why I constantly recommend spiritual practices. That is why I have written a book called spirituality for humans, because I believe that transcendence, that this otating of life is an inexhaustible source of health, because it is an inexhaustible source of forgiveness.

4:56 In this way, he who has a good spiritual experience is better able to forgive, because by exposing himself to the immensity of the sublime, to the immensity of God, if he has a religious experience he can only feel motivated to act from the generosity and goodness he has received throughout his life. Listen, in the Christian experience, we firmly say the one who always forgives us invites us to always forgive those who have harmed us. But good comes the question how to forgive, what step to follow, what method to follow to forgive. I insist that, throughout the many episodes I have shared with you, I have been proposing keys. I am proposing others today, because I believe that these questions do not have a timely and precise answer. I think there is no magic formula to make one forgive, but I do think we can make some reflections that lead us to make the decision to forgive, that lead us to live this process of liberation, that makes us break with the

6:29 chains, that prevents us, that prevent us from growing up. I propose three very precise reflections, and I think they are useful in this process. The first realizes that we all need to be forgiven. It must be recognized that no one is perfect and that we have all failed. Yeah, that makes us prone to need someone to forgive us. Then, as on more than one occasion you have failed others, they too may have failed you.

7:18 And just as you have apologized and needed it today others are asking and needing it. I am clear that when we become aware of it, we are more likely, more likely to live the process of forgiveness. The second relativizes the situation. Please don' t magnify every situation, Don' t get out of proportion what happens, Don' t let the pain blind you and make you believe that that event, that word, that attitude, you see everything and changed the world. No. Many times our perceptions of the situation are more intense than what really happened. That is why an effort that we must make daily to be able to live processes of forgiveness is to learn to place each situation in its time, in its place, in its context, in our life project for itself, to open ourselves up to living serenely, to open ourselves up to healthy living. Sometimes your fears, your complexes, your experiences of yesterday lead you to distort and magnify what happened and when you

8:48 take distance and put everything in proportion to a real scale. You realize you ' re overreacting. The third one tries to understand who hurt you or who offended you. I am sure that each person acts in the most logical and rational way possible according to the information and possibilities he has at that time. It' s hard for me to believe that people are bad just because they are. I am sure that if we had those same life circumstances, we would certainly act in a similar way. Make an effort to understand that person, not by judging him, not by pointing her out, not by believing that it is the worst, not trying to understand her. Review these three keys, these three reflections that cause the power to forgive. Today I invite you to make forgiveness a reality in your life. You cannot continue to hate and desire revenge from those who have harmed you today I encourage you to pray for them, to implore the love of life to grant them peace and help them to be happy. Thank you for being there and thank you for sharing this message with me. You know.
