520 |a This article examines the experiences of six inmates in a Norwegian Prison, conducting a 21-day Ignatian retreat. We have chosen to focus on one central ritual where forgiveness is the overall theme. This ritual becomes a point of departure for a process of self-reflection. The research question in this article is:An additional sub-question is:We explore the ritual of forgiveness in the prison context, with its practices, symbols, signs, silence and important others. We argue that the ritual establishes a unique context, provides new resources for a process of self-examination, for self-interpretation and transformation. We examine the process of self-reflexivity from both discursive and somatic dimensions. The findings show an improved ability of empathy and mentalization, and increased hope for a better future; all of which are important perspectives in the process of reorientation and the transformation of the self.
