To truly forgive is to truly let go. In this episode of The Unfounded Podcast, host Christopher Turner takes a deep dive into the nature of forgiveness, exploring its profound connection to release, transformation, and the symbolic death of old perspectives.
The discussion begins with insights from Buddhist teachings, emphasizing how greed, hatred, and delusion obscure truth and love—and how the inability to forgive keeps individuals trapped in these cycles. Turner then turns to the Tarot’s Death card, reframing it not as an end, but as an invitation to release the burdens and beliefs that no longer serve us.
At its core, this episode challenges the distinction between pain and suffering, asserting that suffering—unlike pain—is often self-imposed. True forgiveness, though difficult, is a radical act of self-love, one that allows us to reconcile with imperfection and embrace the deeper truths of existence.
Join the conversation, and discover the freedom that comes with letting go.
