Days after announcing her separation from husband Suraj Nambiar and requesting privacy, Mouni Roy shared her thoughts on forgiveness, healing and getting over people who hurt or disappoint you.In a recent conversation with The Free Press Journal, the actress reflected on how her outlook on betrayal and resentment has evolved over the years, and credited her personal and spiritual journey for the change.
“I would forgive, but I couldn’t forget.”
Mooney revealed that although forgiving others came naturally to her even when she was younger, forgetting the hurt was often much more difficult.“When I was younger, I used to forgive very easily, and even now I do but I haven’t been able to forget.
“Now, I think through my personal and spiritual journey, I feel like you just have to forgive, God makes you forget,” she said.The actress suggested that healing becomes easier when people stop holding on to past wounds and allow themselves to move forward.
“You’re the one who will suffer more.”
In explaining why she chooses not to hold on to resentment, Mooney compared it to carrying a burden that ultimately hurts the person carrying it.“If you don’t let go, you’ll be the one who hurts the most.
“Sometimes, the other person who hurt you doesn’t even think about it, no matter how much they hurt you,” she added.According to Mouni, practices like meditation, chanting, and spirituality have helped her find peace and perspective over time.
“I don’t call a person evil.”
While she called for tolerance, the actress made it clear that she is not suggesting people should ignore harmful behaviour.She explained: “There are some evil people who will do everything in their power to harm you. I am not calling the person evil, but his qualities are evil.”
