When someone who hurt me out of grief or anger asks for forgiveness, how should I respond?
Dasharath answers the grieving father's apology
Shravan Kumar's father cursed King Dasharath in the madness of grief, then admitted the curse was heavier than the fault and asked forgiveness. Dasharath replied that he was very grateful, because boons are hidden inside curses.
Many times our offence is not so great, yet we receive a bigger punishment than it deserves. I ask your forgiveness. If you can, please forgive me.
