Compassion & Forgiveness with Noah Levine

Jan 12, 2025

Even after years of forgiveness and compassion practice, there can still be things that push our buttons. The human mind holds resentment all by itself—it’s a natural, instinctual response to being hurt, a survival mechanism, not a personal failure. In this talk, we explore how resentment creates unnecessary suffering, and how it’s possible to meet pain with compassion and even those who have harmed us with forgiveness rather than anger.

What’s the most difficult scenario for you to bring in compassion? What about forgiveness?
