“To forgive oneself does not negate the need to undo mistakes. True forgiveness desires to make things right. Making things right is not equivalent to guilt. The need to undo mistakes cannot be replaced by guilt. In fact, being immobilised by guilt is an avoidance of fixing things up. It makes one powerless and gives one an excuse to remain passive and negligent. To continuously feel guilty over wrong doing is both ego-confirmatory and ineffective in correcting bad karma. Guilt is the initial spur to action. Then we act in order to correct both our thoughts and the karma, and we leave the guilt behind.”

Make a new one”

“To forgive the incessant provocations of daily life - to keep on forgiving the bossy mother-in-law, the bullying husband, the nagging wife, the selfish daughter, the deceitful son - how can we do it? Only, I think, by remembering where we stand, by meaning our words when we say in our prayers each night, “Forgive our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us.” We are offered forgiveness on no other terms.

“To Frances Marion
I’ve made a song for you
Drawn from the stones that lie in shadowed pools
Moss sealing their lips
I’ve made a song for you
Taken from things that wake at starlight
Lain-quiet in the Blue;
And from the ferns that sleep
Deep in a cline by day;
And from the wind that bears the seed of Gorse by night;
And from my cagéd heart that cries
Soundless, behind its silver bars,
I’ve made a song for you.
From all the silent things of day,
From all the quiet things of night,
I’ve made this song for you.
Lorna Moon 25 Feb 1929 (unpublished poem)”

“To free a man from error is to give, not to take away. Knowledge that a thing is false is a truth. Error always does harm; sooner or later it will bring mischief to the man who harbors it.”

“To free a man from suffering, he must be set right, put in health; and the health at the root of man's being, his rightness, is to be free from wrongness, that is, from sin. A man is right when there is no wrong in him. I do not mean set free from the sins he has done: that will follow; I mean the sins he is doing, or is capable of doing; the sins in his being which spoil his nature — the wrongness in him — the evil he consents to; the sin he is, which makes him do the sin he does.”
“To free a person from error is to give, and not to take away.”
