The Wisdom & Freedom of Forgiveness

In the Jewish faith, it is the sacred time of Yom Kippur, or the Day of Atonement. It’s a chance to wipe one’s slate clean of the wrongs committed over the past year. My understanding is that it is a contemplative time to offer prayers expressing regret or asking for forgiveness. Like yoga & meditation, it is a thoughtful practice that invites one to reflect on one’s thoughts, words & actions; & to grow in awareness and alignment with God, our highest Self.
