FORGIVENESS? (Radical New Approach to Forgiveness)

"We are all victims of victims." That one statement brought me to a place of actually feeling compassion for all the people in my life who have hurt me. Thank you, Teal!

[@josephinebos1722]

One of her best video's ! It's obvious she talks out of experience. I listen to Abraham (Hicks) and Bashar too, but it's all intelectual talking. Nothing about the shadow side. Nothing about real grieve, and hurt. Teal knows what it is, and that you can't heal by just changing your thoughts.

[@ufoufo9182]

Exactly! There is a need for that pain to be felt and acknowledged.

[@craz4jaymz]

Bashar does talk about the shadow side, what are you talking about? He always encourages to dive deep and to look at the negative emotions. You probably haven't been listening to his older talks.

[@yomama...isaverynicelady]

Indeed. You cant change your thoughts anyway cause you arent the author of "thoughts". The real self can only see and pay attention, or can chose not to.

When Teal explained how she began to understand what her abuser was going through, I couldn't help but cry. She's one of the most amazing people on this planet. I'm deeply moved. Everyone has their flaws and I'm sure she has hers, but credit has to be given where it's due- Teal is genuinely an amazing soul. I love her.

I realized 15 years ago that I could not force forgiveness and I stopped trying. I wanted to focus on healing my pain because that is what I really want. I wanted to achieve the place where it no longer mattered what they had done because it no longer controlled my happiness. This video brilliantly sums up and elaborates what I learned that day.

I decided a long time ago to stop pretending that I could forgive my previous partner/abuser. I have no obligation to anyone to forgive him when it isn’t genuine. I am so grateful for this video because I can see now that I was waiting for permission to let go of the forgiveness concept. I would not have accepted this permission from anyone that wasn’t a female who has also survived abuse. Thank you Teal x

[@victorarregnelle8976]

Sounds like you forgave yourself? And yeah forgiveness isn't selfless, so you are right. I think? I'm self debating though. Do you have to embrace and approve of a person in order for them to be forgiven? If a person is an abuser, you shouldn't accept their abuse. If they genuinely changed, only then could you now trust them. So can accepting someone for what they are without wishing them any I'll count as forgiveness? Why am I so confused. Can't forgive myself for this!

[@yomama...isaverynicelady]

​@@victorarregnelle8976I know you wrote this 3 years ago but i would say that yes you are right! Forgiveness is not about calling a person or action good OR bad! It just means that you realize that what they did didnt actually make the true self that is you to be damaged and that altho it probly sucked, it wasnt personal. They did what they did cause of their own unforgiveness and taking their past abuse personally. And you would likely repeat the pattern if you keep living in personal taking and blaming the other person for your own innefective behavior.

I now understand how being part of the Abraham community was spiritual bypassing, which prevented me from experiencing the peace that I was trying to make by rampaging my way into the vortex, when all I ever needed was validating my pain, instead of forcing my way to positive thinking. Thank you Teal. words can't describe how grateful I am for existing in the same time/space reality with you.❤

The best feeling is to be understood. I WAS SHOCKED FOR 10 MINS. Trying to believe that a stranger from the other side of the world speaking exactly what I’ve been going through. Fully understand where I am coming from. Sharing the exact same feeling of pain. Then coming out from the long healing process, and finally found the purpose in life and the biggest part of my mission on this planet, which is to bring healing to people like us. To heal those places of suffering with compassion, that all of us had experienced so intensely. This is the same path I’ve been going through. This is not coincidence... This is a calling and a drive. A profound message from the Universe that what I am here to do on Earth🙏 I’m truly grateful for the existence of amazing soul Teal Swan, who makes me not feeling alone in my intensive healing journey. Following her for years it was the best video I’ve ever watched! I hope more people can spread these messages to save the world. I want to translate it in my language one day so more people can understand.

[@dramendiana373]

I had to take some time to process all the emotions this video made me aware of. I think I've been pushing myself to forgive before being ready because "I'm better than that", I just realised that is like saying "I'm better than my own emotions"; "I'm better than me." Wow. Sorry to the part of me I've been pushing down. 😶 Thanks Teal, you touch my heart. 🙏💛

Glad this is also useful for you! 🙏 ☺

[@TheDiamondNet]

I've noticed a similar pattern in someone close to me who decided to forgive someone but wasn't ready to. But they were very attached to the idea of forgiveness, so all of their stories are about how they've forgiven "those people." But it was always clear that they still harbored that resentment because they would always get into the same story. So, there's always a wonder in my mind that strikes at the root of this issue... "Am I repressing or am I truly letting go?' And I think that when people get really clear and accepting about how they do feel, it becomes obvious. But to try to parse this question with the mind and only a vague awareness of the emotions, it's like trying to navigate a maze when you're completely blind.

Given who she is and where she comes from, she has the capacity to reach out such a level of reliability, from her depth of knowing, understanding and integration, that anyone who so wishes can receive transmission and empowerment that would be sufficient for their healing. Teal Swan, I bow to you with overflowing love and genuine reverence which came to me so unexpectedly and naturally... I can't believe it, nor can I not believe it. Because it is true. And good. And beautiful. Thank you, dear Teal. Thank you to all you people who support her. Special thanks to those in her inner circle, who I do not know. But what I do know: you supporting this incredibly fragile, incredibly strong being on all levels one could think of... Is a kindness to the whole planet. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

[@wwatkin21]

Man I’ve been saying this for years. People always would tell me to forgive and move on. And in my mind I didn’t know what that looked like. Because I could say with my mouth “I forgive you” but in my heart was still boiling and the person remained unforgiven. I would trivialize over how the hell one just wakes up and says ok I’m over it and somehow removes all the raw emotion from their chest at the same time. I wasn’t understanding how other people were doing that. How people described forgiveness was such an enigma to me. I always visualized myself being able to reach my hand into my own chest and pull out all the bitterness and hatred and resentment that sit in my body and relieving it would be. If I could do that I would do it in a second, just to move on. But unfortunately forgiveness doesn’t work like that, so I’m stuck with going through the process of grief and reclaiming the aspects of myself that were buried when I was traumatized. The thing that sucks is how long it takes.

Sometimes a new video makes feel a little stressed because I wonder if I'm gonna realize that I have yet some more fine tuning to do on myself. I do realize that the more work I get done on myself the less I will feel the need to fine tune what I have already fixed. Teal, you are truly an inspiration to me.

[@Salmoninyourrice]

Forgiveness is so hard. But I was working on it for about six months last year. It gets a bit easier with time. It’s one of the hardest challenges I’ve given myself. When I started my spiritual walk, I wanted it to be peaches and roses. And I would watch all of Teal Swans videos with optimism and kidding myself like I understood everything she was saying but it was only in theory. When I actually had to apply this concept of forgiveness I broke down. I kept seeing the number 999. It all lead me to the path of forgiveness, something I had to do in order to move forward. And I got so angry. I cried many tears and fell into a very deep depression. I had to force myself to go back to those places where I was hurt the most and heal them and let go of them. I’m still working on it. I’m at a point where I can empathize and understand why things happen the way that they did.

When media reports school shootings or traumatic events caused by one individual, I'm the one in group settings to ask "What did that person go through/survive in life to come to this point of inflicting harm on others?" When this one person heard me ask that, she responded with "what difference does that make? It doesn't give them the right to do this! You're too sensitive!" I took a step back and realized we experienced abuse in the house and everything we went, brought us to extremely different perspectives.

Healing is such devotion. You have not boasted about what you had to do to heal and forgive. Forcing healing......those two words do not go together.... Healing is very magical and natural. I am very aware when I share my feelings with some people how okay or not okay they are with my being truthful. Many people, and even those who are in the paid fields of counselling are very uncomfortable with hearing shadow stuff. I find it liberating. I am really empowered by the sharing about the experience you had of witnessing the 'abuser' cry and how there was a deep transformation within you. I have had experiences like this and also been by another's side as a space-holder/healer when such transformations occurred spontaneously. There was nothing anyone was after. Nothing was being pursued. Healing just happened. It is very wonderful, peaceful, exciting, and hopeful.

So insightful and full with truth. Listening to your story I still can’t imagine how you have managed to shift and forgive. I’ve never been through the things you have but I definitely can’t forgive him for what he’s done to you.

That part when Teal forgive her abuser and saw him crying.. it was so moving, so touching

[@wildagain]

I've watched pretty much every video that Teal has ever made, many of them multiple times, and this one is maybe the most important one yet. Thank you so much

Deeply cathartic: Teal: (being in so much pain, sometimes, ‘the only way you can feel good about yourself is to be the victim’ and thus attract the social support you need ... riveting and profound insights throughout this vid. Absolutely wonderful and greatful.

Teal, you are amazing! Thank you so much for this video.... The fact that you walk your talk gives me courage to work through my own pain and heartache. I also really like that you don't pretend to be perfect or that the journey through self work is easy, 'cause it's really not. But it is rewarding. So, in my tears I say, 'Thank you!' You are truly a gift to us. :)

Emotions are never wrong. Thanks Teal.

Just finished the video, and I have to say, it was the most painful vid I've ever watched. Thank you for helping me feel safe enough to bring up the pain, feel it, acknowledge it, without fear. I've spent many years hating myself subconsciously for being a victim, for being weak, for being too understanding, too loving... :) I understand now why I hid, why I stayed in the victim role, and that has made a huge difference. Love

Thank you Teal you are the wake up call I needed in my life to getting better.

[@Sbmhdk]

I really like your KZbin name.

And then one morning you'll wake up feeling ok in the present moment, looking outward to the world, gratefully drawing breath and life from the universe... enjoy breakfast, and become who you are again. Thank you Teal.

This is just incredible. Thank you so much for sharing so honestly and candidly. You cover everything. My biggest venture in forgiveness was towards a person who all but demanded my forgiveness, complete with scripture and comparison "I've talked to so many others who went through this and I've been reading books and no one else has responded to this degree or needed this much time" etc. I tried and tried and tried to forgive. I did recognize the manipulation this person was doing and I just ignored it. Forgiveness was so so hard. I chose it over and over and over. It wasn't until I let myself heal that u realized I didn't have any more work to do. Forgiveness kind of came with the healing package I would love to share my song with you that you are helping me finish here! It's called heal. And I think you would appreciate it

This was a perfectly timed video for me today. It's so nice to have you back in my life. I know it's only down to myself as to why i haven't been here partaking of your wisdom, but at any rate I'm so grateful to be back. You've always kept me centered, through your words and I've always felt the most self-love and support when I stayed in tune with you and your journey. Thank you SO MUCH for everything. Words aren't enough thanks I wish I knew what would feel adequate. I love and appreciate you Teal, and thank you, thank you SO, SO MUCH for all you are and do, you beautiful being

[@ufoufo9182]

Thank you! Finally someone that doesn't treat the unforgiver as the villain. I always get irritated when people say forgive as though my anger or pain is not justified. I am comfortable with my anger but it is the disapproval of others that always makes me uncomfortable.

[@theking00003]

You are truly a gift to this world, Teal. Thank you

[@PournimaB]

This is so so needed to be heard by everyone. Especially in the Spiritual groups who shame others for not forgiving. Thank you so much for such profound perspective towards Forgiveness!

“ Forgiveness doesn’t mean they won’t pay the price of their actions it just means you won’t pay for them too “

[@rachelzhao4850]

Finally teal talked about forgiveness. Going to watch this video again and again.

[@Ashlee-hh6di]

You’re AMAZING! I admire you, and am genuinely grateful for your presence on this earth. Thank you for sharing your beauty, your knowledge, for sharing..YOU. 🤟🏼🙏🏻💛

This is the key I was waiting on. I knew I’d find it
