Forgiveness has attracted the attention of researchers in the field of Psychology. Forgiveness is now being studied with sub components like self forgiveness, forgiveness of others and Forgiveness of the Situation. The impact of the Self esteem is often studied but this study explored the relationship of Self-esteem with self forgiveness, forgiveness of others and Forgiveness of the Situation. Sample of 200 (100 male and 100 female) students of Karnatak University were drawn and Rosenberg’s Self-esteem scale and Heartland’s Forgiveness scales were employed. The results revealed that Self esteem is significantly correlated with forgiveness of Situations and not with Self forgiveness and Forgiveness of Others.
