I saw them cross the twilight of an age, The sun-eyed children of a marvellous dawn, The great creators with wide brows of calm, The massive barrier-breakers of the world

one of the most difficult things for me to do
To forgive one's parents is one of the most difficult things, because they
have given birth to you - how can you forgive them? Unless you start loving
yourself, unless you come to a state in which are thrilled by your being - how can
you thank your parent's? It is impossible. You will be angry - they have given birth
to you, and they didn't even ask you first. They have created this horrible person.
Why should you suffer because they decided to give birth to a child? You were not a
party to it. Why have you been dragged into the world? Hence the rage. If you
come to a point where you can love yourself, where you feel really ecstatic that
you are, where you're gratefulness knows no limitation, then suddenly you feel
great love arising for your parents. They have been the doors for you to enter into
existence. Without them this ecstasy would not have been possible - they have
made it possible. If you can celebrate your being -- and that is the whole purpose
of my work, to help you to celebrate your being -- then suddenly you can feel
gratitude for your parents, for their compassion, their love. You can not only feel
grateful, you also forgive them.
