Premanand Maharaj Ji
When should I not forgive someone who hurt me?
Forgive mistakes, punish criminal habits
Forgiveness does not work everywhere. A slip deserves forgiveness, but a deceitful, criminal nature deserves punishment. Too much pity can make you fail in your duty.
But those whose nature is deceit, crime and negligence, who act against dharma, should be punished. Only through punishment does their intellect become pure.
