I forgive all Souls, may they forgive me. Let the Perfect Souls witness that I bear no animosity
toward any living being.
Comment:
P, JIS
O Lord! I am friendly towards all, happy to see the virtuous, compassionate towards the miserable and downtrodden and indifferent towards those who are against the right path.
I forgive one and all and beg forgiveness from one and all. I am friendly towards all creatures and cherish enmity towards none.

The Grace (Asking for Forgiveness)
I forgive all beings; May all beings forgive me.
I am a friend to all life: I have no ill will toward anyone. All living beings, including myself, have been suffering and reincarnating
throughout the universe because of clinging to conditions and habits;
The push and pull of karma we can bring an end to
by mutual forgiveness. So, again, I declare that I forgive everyone
and may everyone forgive me.
