🙏 Michhami Dukkadam 🙏
On Samvatsari, we are invited to turn inward—to reflect, release, and cleanse the heart of resentment. Forgiveness does not mean that we accept, justify, or forget the wrong that was done to us; nor does it ask us to abandon our boundaries. It means choosing not to let another’s actions continue to occupy our inner world. We forgive not to erase what happened, but to free ourselves from its weight and reclaim our peace.
With the same humility, we ask forgiveness from those whom we may have hurt—through thought, word, or deed, knowingly or unknowingly. May we have the courage to acknowledge where we fell short, the wisdom to learn and improve, and the compassion to let go.
May this Samvatsari help us release what weighs upon the soul, soften what has hardened within us, and walk forward with greater awareness, compassion, and peace.
If I have hurt you in any way, knowingly or unknowingly, through my thoughts, words, or actions, I sincerely ask for your forgiveness.
Michhami Dukkadam. 🙏
