11. "I forgive from the bottom of my heart without any
reservation to all living beings who may have caused
me any pain and suffering either in this life or previous
lives, and I beg again from the bottom of my heart
without any reservation for the forgiveness from all
living beings no matter how small or big to whom I may
have caused pain and suffering in this life or previous
lives, knowingly or unknowingly, mentally, verbally or
physically, or if I have asked or encouraged someone
else to carry out such activities. Let all creatures know
that I have a friendship with everybody and I have no
revenge, animosity or enmity toward anybody."
