Modules: Forgiveness

Many of us have been through traumatic situations in our lives where people have wronged us in profound ways. We carry around with us the scars of these wounds and in addition a lot of negativity towards the other person. Somehow we know that it would be the right thing to forgive but something inside of us holds us back from doing this. What is the Jewish hashkafa on forgiveness? When should one forgive? Why should one forgive? And how should one forgive? In this module we will be exploring the Jewish sources on this topic in depth.
