The art of forgiving

By Rekha Murali, India

Since childhood, I have often heard these phrases, “To err is human, to forgive divine and yet another one, “Forgive and forget”. Pondering on these two statements, I felt that I could forgive but never forget. It seemed simple. The minute an incident of the past came to my mind, the person who did it to me appeared in my inner eye along with the situation. So, I felt I could never forget.

Recently, there were a few incidents that hurt and saddened me, causing immense stress, disappointments, upheaval, sadness, anger etc. You name the emotion, and I felt all that. I felt it was the end. It felt as though things would never lookup. I would die a lonely, sad soul. All that changed through something that Mohanji did and as usual, ‘He walked with me!’ 

I heard about the Forgiveness Process that my Guru Mohanji had given to the world. Even then, my first thought which I jokingly shared with someone was, I am prepared to do anything as an Acharya, but I am not ready to forgive. The pain and wounds were fresh, and I felt it was not easy. It was indeed my mind fooling me.

As an Acharya, what I had learnt and knew deep within was that I had to forgive and move on. Mohanji always said, “Forgiveness leads to freedom.”

Slowly with all my other practices, I realised forgiveness, letting go and moving on towards my purpose was the top priority. Soon, I got a wonderful opportunity to practise the Forgiveness Process that was recorded in Mohanji’s voice. Now, my interest was piqued. Whatever Mohanji did was always for my highest good. I was eager to unhook and forgive each and everything. My heart soon craved for the freedom that Mohanji always spoke about.

Finally, I got to do the process as it was offered to all the Acharyas for a week. I did not want to miss the opportunity and so did it all the seven days, although it is not necessary. Needless to say, I was left speechless and awed. 

The first time, it was as though I was in the world of Harry Potter, with Mohanji using a magic wand to remove all the memories from within me that were deeply embedded and dissolve them. What was surprising was that during the process, neither did I remember the people nor the situations. All that I remembered was that I had gone through varied emotions such as anger, hatred, jealousy, guilt, regrets and so on. I felt unappreciated and betrayed. Being a perfectionist, whatever I did was never good enough. So, a sense of unworthiness too seemed to linger. 

As Mohanji guided me lovingly through the process in a soothing voice, I was able to unburden myself and soar high for a few minutes with him. I understood with clarity the purpose I was born for, and I visualised my Master holding my hand and guiding me forward, leaving all the unwanted impressions, patterns, and karma behind. As we soared higher and higher, he gently sent me ahead and stayed behind to guide other souls lovingly. This really showed the liberated existence of a Master. 

This happened on most of the days that I did the process. The whole process would start with bouts of crying, and my heart would feel so heavy each time, I felt it would burst. I have never ever cried like this before. Soon it would cease, and a feeling of lightness would cover me. I would then follow Mohanji faithfully on my journey. 

This entire process of forgiveness showed me my purpose. I realised my purpose is to serve the world with unconditional love, kindness and compassion. This made me so free and accepting of my situation in life. 

Later, thinking about the process, I realised that this Forgiveness Process was not an ordinary, guided process. With each word, the Master was working on me. He was operating from a different frequency, and all that I was expected to do was follow the instructions. As usual, he did his job. He cleared layers of muck that I’d collected over lifetimes. Another strange thing was that although I got to do the process, even if I was delayed and didn’t do it at the same time every day, I’d start feeling the emotions exactly at that time.

I was under the impression that it would be easy and with a session or two, I’d be fine. But I can tell you that this process is such a precious gift, it continues to keep you in awareness and helps you to let go of the situations that you may come across in your day to day life. It is life-transforming, indeed!

Not only that, I suddenly realised that what I was holding on to, playing the victim and thinking I could never forgive disappeared. I was able to accept the situations and move on. How did that happen? As layers of impressions were getting cleared, I was able to accept myself unconditionally with my weaknesses and strengths and totally forgive myself. Once I accepted myself, forgave myself, it was automatically reflected on the outside; the forgiveness of others, the situations and the surroundings became easy.

The pain, the scars of the situation and the people who caused it did not matter because, with Mohanji’s guidance, I chose freedom, I chose acceptance of myself, I chose to love myself, and I chose the path of liberation.

How The Mohanji Forgiveness Process changed me

Two beautiful testimonials of The Mohanji Forgiveness Process shared by Mohanji Acharyas Mina and Rekha.

By Mina Obradovic, Serbia

I went through The Mohanji Forgiveness Process recently, listening to all the guidance given by Mohanji during the process on what to do, what to imagine, etc. During the whole process, I felt Mohanji changed so many things within me. 

It was a sight I’ve never seen in this life. My physical, mental, emotional, and energy body (layers) seemed like the inside of some computer and Mohanji’s hands were clearly visible while he was cutting some cords which I realized were some of my attachments and tendencies that stagnated me. I could also see that he reconnected some of the existing cords which I couldn’t realize what they represented. It seemed like science fiction, but now I can confidently say it was real for me because every time I saw him cut a cord, something changed in me. Some of the dimensions shifted, my perception changed, my confusion vanished as my clarity increased, self-confidence increased, my laziness reduced, I felt more energized and ready to face anything that comes my way. I haven’t felt that energetic in the past few weeks.

In the end, when we were supposed to visualize the fireplace and burn our negative memories there, I saw Mohanji was the one who burned all my negative memories of the past, and not the fire I visualized. It’s not only about what we visualize nor about what Mohanji’s words say during the process. The process works only because of his silent work behind the scenes, which we might not even see or acknowledge. The process as we see it or hear it seems like any other guided meditation. All that is almost irrelevant compared to what Mohanji actually does during the same. It’s clear that all Mohanji’s techniques are just ways for us to knock the door or give our permission for his energy to work on us (Masters from the path of liberation never help against one’s will or without our permission). Once we make ourselves available, he immediately does the rest. 

Mohanji will do his job, as always. All his power, protection, guidance and support come instantly. I warmly recommend everybody to go through the process. It’s helped me immensely, and it is more than pure gold what this process provides. Words are not enough to express my gratitude… Thank you, Mohanji!

By Rekha Murali, India

The Forgiveness Process is a priceless technique given to us by Mohanji to unhook and release all the baggage that we unconsciously carry. Layers and layers of pain and emotions were being peeled off as I went deeper in search of that empty space of freedom and silence. The heaviness in the heart got released slowly with repeated practice, leading to the birth of a new me… me full of love, compassion and purpose. My heartfelt, sincere gratitude to Mohanji for this beautiful gift to the world.”
