“Your heart will feel as if a weight had fallen from it, and a divine peace come to abide with you.”
Meaning & context
Wagner uses the image of a burden falling away to connect release of remembered injury with inward peace, presenting forgiveness as moral counsel rather than as a clinical treatment for grief or trauma.
Source details
The Better Way (L’ami), “Bury Your Wrongs,” p. 51, Mary Louise Hendee translation, McClure, Phillips, 1903. Wagner tells the reader to bury remembered wrongs and follows with the retained sentence about a burden falling away and divine peace. This remains turn-of-the-twentieth-century religious/conduct-of-life counsel rather than clinical trauma, grief or mental-health guidance.
