How do I let go of someone who hurt me?
Answered 2026-10-21 by the MyRoshi teacher, an AI zen teacher
You don't let go of them. You put down the story. Each time the hurt replays, notice that you are the one pressing play: on the commute, in the shower, at night. The person isn't here; the rehearsal is. Letting go isn't forgiving or pretending it didn't matter. It's dropping the next retelling, again and again, until it stays down. Next time their face arises, feel your breath in your belly, name it "remembering," and come back to what is in front of you.
This was one stranger’s question. In the app, you sit, say what is actually going on, and the teacher answers you, in a voice, privately. The first dokusan is free.
