Question

Is there a shorter form of the Forgiveness mediation to use for smaller mistakes, lack of thoughtfulness, etc.?

Answer

There's no official Forgiveness meditation in the scriptures. The monks, and I think the nuns, too, do have a certain type of forgiveness ceremony they do every moon day, or at least once a month, depending on how many people are in the monasteries. They have a ceremony that's performed in a certain way. What Rosemary has given to all of you is just her own idea how to do it, so you can make your own. Jiggle the words, have a little short form if you want.
