Sažetak

Viktor Frankl, the founder of logotherapy considered self-transcendence as one of the most important human virtue and ability. He points out that man is not instinctively being and that is capable of using reason and make decisions. He further stated that each individual is responsible for his/her actions and that he/she has the ability to choose and to reconsider his/her decision. Self-transcendence can be defined with this Frankl's qoute: "The man has in any situation a certain scope to exceed too tight discipline and conditioning and to find new possibilities for life." In many biblical texts and examples from Frankl psychotherapeutic practice we find the phenomenon of forgiveness, for example self-transcendence . M. Gandhi said; "The weak can not forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong." The opposite of forgivness is hate. Hatred destroys man's own mental and spiritual well-being and hurts other people. It can be the trigger for the formation of psychosomatic diseases and trigger for committing the worst crimes against man and humanity. Professor Slobodan Lang states that we have to elaborate methods of „good“ and not evil and the consequences thereof. In this view, professor Ivan Urlić psychiatrist, in his book "The sacrifice, revenge and culture of forgiveness" elaborates the process of forgiveness and says that it takes place in several stages. In that light, we finish with Martin Gray: "Forgive so that you unleash the power of love!".
