The grievance I have is not just what family has done to me over the decades, but that they still do the same stuff now, even as I am a 50 yr old man. So that is my challenge, not just to forgive and let go of the past, but to forgive and find peace with what is still happening.

This is good advice for dealing with reasonable people whom you might have had some disagreement with in the past. However, when it comes to dealing with people with Narcissistic Personality Disorder, it's a recipe for setting yourself up for further abuse. Use good discernment when sizing people up, and if someone is just incorrigible, the best thing you can do is stay away from them.

Eckhart’s book “stillness speaks” has a chapter on Relationship. I found it particularly useful in “Letting Go”. To quote my favourite- “ if her past were your past, her pain your pain, her level of consciousness your level of consciousness, you will think and act exactly as she does. With this realisation comes forgiveness, compassion and peace.”

Neville Goddard also insists on the importance of forgiveness! I am working on that daily, I want to be in peace with everyone! Not always easy though! But we try!

The stories we tell ourselves are the cause of our feelings and beliefs , tell ourselves enough times we are superior and we feel superior and believe ourselves to be superior, tell ourselves enough times we are inferior and we feel inferior and believe ourselves to be inferior, tell ourselves we are a victim and continuously remind ourselves of all the reasons we have the right call ourselves a victim and of course we develop a victim mentality, and you can't have a victim mentality and a happy peaceful mind. When we become aware of the stories we tell ourselves we have the opportunity to stop listening to them and change our relationship with our minds for the better. The thoughts and feelings we argue for and defend most often,, will surely be ours and who we become. If we choose to neither think negative or positive, we are left only with what is right here right now.

"Forgiveness is the key that unlocks the door of resentment and the handcuffs of hatred. It is a power that breaks the chains of bitterness and the shackles of selfishness.” “And for all these people alike, the key to healing turned out to be the same.

Forgive, forget and Love sincerely. 🧘‍♂️ Don't bring the baggage of the past to the present moment and you can have a much more meaningful and sometimes transformational encounter. 📖 The Power of Now changed my life.

A powerful reminder from Eckhart that we introspect our feelings, especially the resentful and unforgiving ones. Get to the root of them and dissolve them once and for all. 🙏🙏

Held a grudge against someone for over 10 years. He was the only man I ever loved and he betrayed me but I was so in denial about it for so many years i didn't even realize. I had to fall in love with someone even more deeply to realize this. I still dream about him and now he's with my ex best-friend and they are very happy together. I'm happy for them. It wasn't until recently I really learned how to forgive him.

Thank you Eckhart!

I am a super forgiving spiritual man. I never hold a grudge and I try to be friends with everyone. Yes, I have been through a lot of battles from bullies at school, to family and relationship disputes. Almost murdered once, almost died a few times too. I have found a way to release uncomfortable feelings thoughts and emotions. I remain in the Now mode, nothing stands in the way of our reactions. We are in control of ourselves. We can't control what others do. Only advise.

From the many comments I looked through, it seems that few people have understood what Eckhart is saying. Bottom line is: Forgiveness itself is an egoic act. You don’t need to act as forgiving if you were in the now. Being in the now takes you out of this egoic trap called forgiveness.

What feels short sighted in your world is a huge realization in mine, perfectly tailored for that moment by the compendium of my personal experience.

What the person did was awful indeed. But it is the past and I don't want to walk around carrying that burden - or poison rather ...cause remembering that story is not a good feeling tale, yet it returns and returns. And I DO feel in other ways very happy - close to nature - God too if you will and very grateful to be on this earth in this body... but that "dark spot" does exist in me and does feel like it blocks me from full light .
