Forgiveness is a powerful act of liberation. It’s not about condoning the wrong but freeing yourself from the weight of anger and hurt. When we forgive, we reclaim our peace, letting go of the emotional burden that holds us back. It fosters healing, allowing us to move forward with clarity and grace.

• The Buddhist metaphor of the hungry ghost symbolizes unhealthy desire leading to harmful addictive behavior. These beings have insatiable cravings, with small mouths and large, empty bellies, representing desires that can never be fulfilled. Hungry ghosts experience four types of suffering: insatiable hunger, self-criticism, missing joy in the moment, & a hole in the soul.

The beauty of being human lies in our courage to evolve, embracing both our flaws and virtues, as we strive to become the best versions of ourselves.
