Abstract

Forgiveness is a basic concept for human survival because without it people would start to hurt each other. Thus, this study focuses on finding out the reasons for forgiving others. For this a set of questions were framed to find out whether people really forgive and what their motives are. A
sample size of 30 members are taken who really forgive and their motives are analyzed through qualitative research design. The motives are categorized through concept mapping. The motives for forgiveness as found by this research study are categorized into the following factors. They are relationship, self centeredness, spirituality, empathy, behavior and human nature factor. Forgiving a person wholeheartedly will improve the mental wellbeing of the individual. The interpersonal and intrapersonal relationship will also be well established and can be maintained
for a longer period of time. Thus through psycho education one can emphasize the importance of forgiveness and its benefits for improving the quality of life.
