Though the Law of Karma is simply stated - 'as you sow, so shall you reap' - it is no simplistic, tit-for-tat theory, nor is it an arbitrary human creation. The Law of Karma is another name for Newton's Third Law of Motion: 'for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.' As such, it is inherent in the universe's structure: 'The doctrine of karman and phala, act and fruit, is less a product of man's sense of justice, that one shall be punished for what one has done, than a necessary consequence of the doctrine of the inherent efficacy of the acts'.

Everything does not happen all at once in our world, thanks to the inherent limitations of time, space and causation. A tree and the seed from which it sprang cannot exist simultaneously; the former must develop from the latter. Events occur in our universe according to a sequence, which is scheduled by the Law of Karma on the great calendar known as time.

In living individual beings the Law of Karma acts primarily at the level of ahamkara. Humans, who have much more self-awareness than do animals or plants, have a proportionately greater ability to self-identify with their actions. What they sow and reap depends on the relative balance of the Three Gunas in their personalities. When Sattva predominates, a person performs altruistic karmas, unattached to their results, while a predomination of Rajas causes one to act from passion, blinded by desires. Those who act without thinking act from a predominance of Tamas. Only those whose minds are fixed solely on the Absolute remain untouched by the Three Gunas.

Astrologer attempt in their analyses to interpret the varieties and intensities of a person's karmas in particular domains of life. Sanchita Karmas are assumed to form a constant karmic background that is not totally comprehensible by ordinary means, Jyotish included. It is Sanchita Karma that prompts Indians to claim that the ways of karma are unfathomable. Prarabdha, Kriyamana and Agama Karmas are, however, knowable through Jyotish.

Astrology assumes that the human condition always arises from a dynamic interaction between fate and free will. Fate is fundamentally an expression of the Sanchita and Prarabdha Karmas, and free will the result of Kriyamana and Agama Karmas. Agama and Kriyamana Karmas eternally evolve into Sanchita and Prarabdha Karmas with the passage of time, the axle that turns the great wheel of karma. What was done by free will today acts as the cause of what is experienced as fate tomorrow. Though no one is ruled by fate alone, it may seem so until true free will emerges. Only when free will emerges can the quantity and qualities of effort invested in modifying a situation equal or exceed the quantity and quality of effort that created the situation; only then can transformation, as opposed to simple change in life, be achieved. The quantity and quality of effort required to after previous karmas depends on the intensity of the Prarabdha Karma.

The three degrees of karmic intensity which may apply to one, many, or all areas of a person's life are:

1. Dridha (fixed) Karma

2. Dridha - Adridha (fixed/non-fixed) Karma

3. Adridha (non-fixed) Karma

1. Dridha Karma

Dridha Karmas give fixed results because they are so difficult to change that are practically non-changeable. These karmas, pleasurable or painful, are destined to be experienced because of the intensity of their causes. Most people have noticed that from time to time an experience simply 'happens', despite all efforts to avoid its occurrence. If, for example, a pregnant woman who has enjoyed perfect health before and during her pregnancy and who has had the best of medical care delivers a child with a congenital deformity, a Jyotishi might well find that she was experiencing Dridha Prarabdha Karma concerning children, and that her child was experiencing Dridha Prarabdha Karma concerning its body. Remember that this kind of karma may be pleasurable as well as painful; as we all know, those who seem the least deserving are often those who get ahead in life.

Dridha Karmas appear in a horoscope where confluence exists. Confluence occurs wherever many astrological factors converge in their indications. The greater the number of indications for good OR for bad in a particular area of a horoscope, the more obvious its results will become.

2. Dridha- Adridha Karma

Dridha-Adridha Karmas occur wherever some (but not most) horoscopic factors relating to a particular area converge in their indications. These karmas, good OR bad, can be changed through the concentrated application of creative will, though considerable effort is required. They give fixed or non-fixed results according to the quantum of effort employed. If the congenital deformity in the child mentioned above is corrected or substantially alleviated through surgery, prolonged diet, intensive exercise, or some other corrective, then its Prarabdha Karma was of the Dridha-Adridha variety.

3. Adridha Karma

Adridha Karmas are said to give non-fixed results because they are easily altered. Wherever no confluence exists in a horoscope, Adridha Karmas are present. This state is skin to having a clean slate on which you may write what you please. When a child of normal physical exercises and her body responds with increased strength so that the gain is directly proportionate to the effort made, and no unforeseen hindrances or other unanticipated variances occur, it is a case of Adridha Prarabdha Karma in the area of her physique .

The psychic healing allows us to have a healthy mind and body. And from the spiritual point of view, psychic healing allows people to recognize their pure and luminous nature.

The being's pure nature is never contaminated, it is only darkened by the ignorance, and it is for this reason that the psychic healing is possible, and it shouldn't only be an interest of the sick persons, but an objective of the whole humanity.

At the same time psychic healing is also the capacity that has any individual of transmitting healing spiritual energy to another individual.

The healing looks for to reestablish the health there where the illness has originated, and that place is not necessarily the physical place where the ailment has shown.

A psychic healing can alleviate the pain, restore the lost functions and even improve the quality of the chronic patients' life. For that reason, it is highly advisable when a patient arrives to a plateau in his improvement, or he recovers in a smaller measure than what was expected.

The psychic healing is a way to let the past behind and walk toward God, I should say that it is not an alternative medicine itself, but rather a therapy that should be used as a complement of the treatment prescribed by the doctors in each case.

THE RELATIONSHIP WITH THE KARMA

Before anything else it is necessary to clarify what's the karma. Karma is a Sanskrit word that means action. Not only physical action, but also thought in action and word in action.

On the other hand the karma is also the law of cause and effect, that is to say that the words, thoughts and actions of our past lives, generate impressions in the causal body, which then are manifested as the karma by which we have to go through in this life (we must also add to it the karmic consequences of what we do in this life)

Talking about the psychic healing, we can say that the illnesses that we suffer in this life, are the karmic consequences of what we did in the past. That is to say that when the karma matures, the illness manifests itself.

We all have a nature that is pure, luminous, and that it is not contaminated by any mental factor, but when the poisons of the attachment and the ignorance, become part of our mind as a karmic consequence, the physical manifestation of the illness takes place.

IS THE KARMA THE ONLY CAUSE OF ILLNESSES?

NO, there are four different causes for the illnesses:

The environment: where all kinds of illnesses transmitting microorganisms exist (that attack us faster when there's lack of hygiene and stress).

Bad feeding: not well balanced diets, insufficient and inadequate feeding (excess of fat, consumption of red meats, alcohol, excess of fried food, etc.)

Subtle energy: Subtle negative energy that can come from other human beings and from the astral plane.

The karma: although I have highlighted it as the fourth item, the karma is in fact not only a source of illnesses, but a source that contains and causes the three previous causes.

The emotions, the attitudes and the beliefs, can also have a negative effect in the person's health, but the health is ultimately determined by the karma.

CAN EVERY BODY BE HEALED?

If you want a short and direct answer:YES, psychic healing can heal everybody. But this question deserves a special explanation.

If psychic healing can be applied to everybody, does that mean that all terminal sick persons can heal?

YES, the psychic healing can heal even the terminal sick persons. although they might end up dying, since the physical cure of the illness is not always possible.

The first thing that we should understand is that everybody will die in some moment, either for a terminal illness, or for a slide in the bathing tub. Then the objective of the healing is not to avoid a person death. This is outside of the reach of any human being.

The psychic healing embraces a much wider concept than the idea of avoiding the death, the psychic healing goes beyond the idea of life and the death, because in fact it is looked for to heal the mind, to heal what has caused the appearance of the karmic illnesses.

A person can recover from a sickness and not be healed from it, this way the karmic roots of that illness might make it appear again in this same life or in the following one, or they will make the person go through similar pain situations until he learns what the karma intended to teach him.

Psychic healing doesn't require the patient to believe in what the healer believes, neither that he understands what his healer does, reason why it is not a faith cure.

WHICH IS THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE HEALING AND THE MEDIC SCIENCE?

The psychic healing and the medic science work on two different aspects of the human being. The psychic healing looks for to eliminate the karmic causes of the illness, while the medic science look for to eliminate the physical manifestations of the illness.

Then if the doctor prescribes us a medication, it is necessary to take it and to continue in full with the treatment as he prescribed it until the end of the physical manifestation of this illness (if it is possible to achieve it) .

Once we have been able to eliminate the physical manifestations of the illness, we might consider ourselves cured, but this is not necessarily true. If the illness has had a karmic origin, and the person has not received a psychic healing, that same illness or another situation that makes the person go through the same kind of experiences, will show up again.

It is necessary to take appropriately care of the body because it is the temple of our soul, but it is also necessary to be in charge of the person's mind and to look for its psychic healing, until the person becomes an illuminated one. Then and only then it will be able to enjoy the full healing.

PSYCHIC HEALING AND ILLUMINATION

The illumination is a state in which the person is able to take contact and conscience of his true spiritual nature, and it is also said that an illuminated person is a person that has wakened up of the dream of his existence or from Maya's illusion.

An illuminated person is a person that is able to eradicate suffering from his life, although the pain can continue being part of is existence, because the illuminated has interpreted the reality as it really is.

WHAT IS REQUIRED TO HEAL?

The answer to what is required to heal could not be simpler: what is required to heal is to have a sincere desire to do good, a disinterested desire to do god to someone else.

Once you have the desire to do good, you need to offer yourself to God, so that it uses us as a healing channel.

This is the reason why the healer can not be affected by the sick person's negative energy, neither he should fear in any way the damage of his own energy, since it is not his own energy the one that he should transmit, he is only acting as a channel for the Divine energy.

Does the healer need to be a saint or a person of superior nature?

I believe that the best answer that can be given is an image: If for a dirty channel runs water, water doesn't care how dirty it is the channel, water will always be water. And while in the physical plane the water can be contaminated, in the spiritual plane the Divine energy is always pure and uncontaminated, and it doesn't care about the purity of the channel that it uses.

WHO CAN PRACTICE PSYCHIC HEALING?

Any person that gets consciously and energetically ready can practice healing, because the power to communicate with God and to offer oneself like a tool for the healing of others, it is a helping ability inherent to all human being

It is important to remember that we don't heal with our energy, we are only the channels through which the Divine energy flows, reason why the Divine intervention, doesn't conclude when we finish our healing exercise, but rather the healing continues acting on the other person for as much time as God considers it necessary.

In fact all healing exercises should go accompanied by a teaching by which we acknowledge the sick person that we will help him to establish an energetic connection with The Supreme Being, but that he can also request it without our help.

HEALING METHODS

The older healing practice that is known is the Ayurvedic Medicine that it has being practiced in India for about 3500 years. But there are many other healing arts among which we can highlight the Reiki, the Thai Chi, the Yoga, the Mind Control, the Transcendental Meditation, etc.

I have written for you two exercises that can help you in this topic (they are both in Spanish only):

How to heal yourself (CD # 34)
How to heal others (CD # 39)

DURING HOW MUCH TIME MUST THE HEALING BE PRACTICED?

In some cases a single practice of the healing will be enough, but it is generally a process of progressive improvement, for that reason you shouldn't get discouraged if immediate results are not obtained.

The energy transferred by means of the healer transforms the patient, he will feel more calm down and confident and he will surely have a change in its attitude and in the quality of its life.

THE RELATIONSHIP WITH THE CHAKRAS

The chakras are thousands of energy centers that are distributed throughout the whole body, although there are 7 bigger chakras that are aligned along the spine, from the root, to the crown.

Most of the healing methods among which we can highlight the Acupuncture, the Do In, the Shiatsu, and the Reflexology work over the energy points of the smaller chakras, but as the Aura is an energy that depends on the energy flow of the chakras, you can work on any part of the body to produce a healing.

The chakras of a healthy person are open and they work in a harmonic form, affecting this way all the functions of the body. While in a sick person they are blocked or they work in insufficient way.

The base of the healing is the restoration of the good flow of the energy through the chakras.

HEALING IN GROUP

When a group of people unites themselves to request for the healing of a person, the healing effect is increased because the multiple channels through which the love of all the participants and the Divine energy work, are united.

And when the healing is practiced using the visualization, then the physical limitations of the distance disappears, that is to say that a healer may heal people that are not physically next to the healer.

The distance healing is something that today is more easily accepted by the western science, since the experiments of the French Quantic Physical Alain Aspect, have demonstrated that: even when a couple of subatomic particles are separated in the space, what happens to one of the particles can have effect on the other ones.

There have also been carried out experiments where the DNA of donors located 80 Km away from the donors, have reacted in the same way than the donors, under emotional stimulation.

HOW ARE THE HEALINGS PRACTICED?

The basic procedure for he healing it is to place the hands of the healer over the affected person's sick area, and to imagine that God uses us like a channel, so that through our hands the positive energy is transfused to the patient.

When the hands imposition technique, is practiced with the positive visualization, then the healing becomes a tool that can be used to help distant patients. The use of certain symbols and rituals, as the use of candles, incense and glasses of water are more to propitiate the creation of a mental state for the healer and the patient.

The healing is in fact only a special way of praying, and in the prayer one puts the hands over the patient, and at the same time request the help of God who will ultimately decide how and when the fruits will be picked up.

Earth's population is projected to increase by 50% in the next 50 years, and more people means more marketing competition. With the coming of the internet, you have to explore more options for marketing tactics because your potential customer base expands a thousand fold, and if you're really savvy, you can market to the entire world.

Have you ever forgotten to put that screw in your fresh from the box garbage disposal? Internet marketing, like home improvement, is an intricate field ruled by simplistic guidelines that can often get passed over. Classical marketing strategists frequently overlook the fundamental precepts regarding karma and its effect on the marketing battleground known as the internet. Karma specifically means "action," so when people begin talking about karmic marketing, you could think of it as "Marketing in Action" or "Dynamic Marketing." Doing unto others as you would have done to you is a karmic concept dating back to the beginning of mankind, like gravity. You may beg to differ on how karmic concepts work in marketing, but if you try karmic marketing, it will boost your sales.

What is the most lucrative way to build business through karmic marketing? A rotation of gifts and bonuses is a karmic marketing strategy which will communicate to your email lists that you value their patronage, and perhaps more importantly, that you want them to shop with you again. After all, who doesn�ft appreciate free stuff? Consumers' responses will be, "Fabulous. I get that for free? I'll shop here again."

Offering complimentary items is an example of an excellent execution of karmic marketing. You see, when clients receive something on a regular basis, something that they expect to see in their inbox every month, certain people will just ignore it. They stop listening to it. They stop watching it. However, when you send merchandise and once in a while provide a limited time offer, people cannot predict what you will do next.

If you want to turn a profit in the internet marketing arena, it is necessary to have shoppers that are vested in what you have for sale. Here are some ideas to get you going. Video tutorials are really effective. Videos can be created with something as simple as a webcam, and you can make them about anything. For example, create an instructional series on how to best use your wares. Be creative on how to use tutorials for you karmic marketing strategy. Once you've accomplished this, send an email to your list, or as a personal recommendation, build it into your automatic responder. Teleconferences and consultation services are excellent ways to boost customer interest. Affiliate deals, or belonging to an affiliate program, can be resources for complimentary gifts that you can offer your own list.

Introduction

I was a really stupid kid. In addition to getting mediocre grades in Spanish class, not listening to superiors, and turning down Lucy Haines for a date (she is now a model), I would venture out to a local farm and partake in late-night cow tipping with my friends.

Sure, "boys will be boys," but it did generate bad karma for me. Let me explain. When I got a bit older I realized the error of my ways and got a lot smarter. I studied hard in college, got a decent job, and invested in a Smart Car. It is safe and energy efficient. I worked hard to shed my stupidity.

The karma police did not forget my old stupidity. One morning I strolled out of my apartment to find my Smart Car tipped over on its side. Some would begin having mixed feelings of anger, bewilderment, awe, self-pity; but, I did not engage in any of these emotions. I knew exactly why this had happened. The cows had their revenge. The irony is I had installed a sensor for tip-over protection. Too bad they don't make sensors that alert you of committing acts that will generate bad karma.

Why did I relate my history and Smart Car anecdote? I needed to segue into my article and to illustrate its purpose. Some positive karma is obviously needed in my life; so, with no further ado, I will relate some tips to better economize your fuel purchasing.

Take another mode of transportation

The day my car was tipped I walked to work. I figured it would give me time to reevaluate my situation. Walking is not that bad. I figure you could walk, bike, carpool, or take public transportation instead of driving. You can get some exercise, save money, and save wear and tear on your car. Visit the Public Trans. Associations Web site to see how convenient it is for you.

Get a new car

More and more fuel efficient cars are produced each year. Monster trucks are no longer en vogue (now there's Ultimate Fighting), so look for a hybrid or other fuel-efficient car. What ever happened to the electric car? Anyway, check out this site for more information and ideas.

How prime is premium?

Use the grade of gasoline that your car needs. I know you're proud that you can afford the extra forty cents a gallon to buy premium (which equals $8 for every 20 gallons), but if your car does not specifically need it, there is no benefit.

Slow down Speedy Gonzales

Wind resistance increases with increased speed. Let me do some math for you (don't worry, I majored in English). Every ten miles per hour of speeding costs you 15% in fuel economy. So, for every 1,000 miles driving (gas being about $2.50 a gallon and getting 25 mpg) you would save $15 by going 10mph slower. I know it is a lot of math (eww), but think of this over the course of a year.

Chill on the hills

Don't you feel like going faster up hills? Well, this is a stellar way to burn a lot of gas. Maintain the same speed. You will save yourself a plethora (told you I majored in English) of gasoline. The conversion changes from getting 25mpg to like 4mpg when accelerating up a hill!

See into the future

I have a friend who loves to race people to the next red light and stop sign. He is the big winner of wasting gas. Every time you employ your brakes you are eventually using more gas. Look ahead and stop acceleration and coast to the stop sign or red light. Do you live in the city? If you are at a red light, is it likely there will be another one in 10 seconds? Why are you racing to that light? The guy next to you may feel cooler because he beat you to the next light, but you will feel cooler when you have more money in your pocket (to buy those $300 designer sunglasses of course - no, don't do that).

No loitering allowed

Did your wife or girlfriend just go "run in" the store? Are you leaving the car on because you think they will be "right back?" Do you know you are wasting gas? Turn your car off if you are going to let it sit idle for more than a couple of minutes. The theory that it costs more gas to start a car again than to sit idle ranks right up there with explosions in your stomach from pop rocks and cola (don't do it!). If these allegations were true than cows can cast spells...

And ladies, I am not being biased, it is not that men don't enjoy shopping as well, it is just that women are too smart to sit and wait for us with the car on.

Heavy load

Every 100 pounds can reduce your fuel economy by 2 percent. Are you living out of your car? Rent a storage space instead. Also, get that drum set and sound equipment out of the trunk; your band broke up well before Metallica cut their hair. Clear out anything from your car that does not need to be there.

The AC does turn off

I have a friend that uses the AC for company. We are getting him help, but I digress... Unless it is extremely humid, turn off your AC. Running the AC forces your engine to work harder. Save your engine to burn gas efficiently. You know those cold packs? Try sitting on one while you drive if you are hot. My friend gave me that tip...I know, we are getting him help.

Ask for directions

I am not doing a comedy routine here about how men never want to stop and give directions, but do you know why that bit is so cliché, because it is true. Instead of driving your car and anxiety levels extra miles, why not just stop and ask for directions when you are lost. Navigational systems have helped with this conundrum, but there are still those (you know who you are) who refuse to rely on asking for directions. These are the same people who call those 800-numbers for their astrology fortunes.

Don't go tired in checking your tires

Deflated tires will cause more friction on the road and in turn, cause your engine to work harder to acquire speed. Check your tire pressure every week to every other week. You can get the gas attendant to check; they appreciate checking oil, washing windows, and gauging tire pressure for no additional money (hint, hint). You can find the pressure for your car on the driver-side door threshold or in the manual.

Take your car for check-ups

Proper car maintenance is vital to fuel efficiency. Bringing in your car for regular checks will keep your fuel efficiency potential optimized. This is something that is underestimated by most because they fear that they will have to spend money by taking the car in for a check-up. The longer you wait, the more likely something may go wrong and wind up costing you more money in the end.

Karma is defined as the action and its fruits. Ancient Hindu saints have believed that a man’s life is the direct result of his karma. Good thoughts, words and deeds lead to good and happy life while bad thoughts, words and deeds lead a person to disaster.

The ancient book of Gita, which is the treatise on the living has led a great stress on the karma. Karma is defined as the action and its fruits. Ancient Hindu saints have believed that a man’s life is the direct result of his karma. Good thoughts, words and deeds lead to good and happy life while bad thoughts, words and deeds lead a person to disaster. This has been postulated in the 18th century by Isaac Newton, who gave his law as “For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.”

The branch of yoga that deals with karma is called as the karma yoga. Usually you are bound by the cravings and desires associated with your act but you can free yourself by doing the act but dissociating yourself from its consequences. This is the basic concept behind karma yoga and the person who follows this path is known as karma yogi. His behaviour is of indifference and while the world may think he is not interested, in reality he has mastered his desires and has developed awareness of the real significance of the events that occur around him.

The branch of yoga that deals with karma is called as the karma yoga.

His behaviour is of indifference and while the world may think he is not interested, in reality he has mastered his desires and has developed awareness of the real significance of the events that occur around him.

This yoga involves doing your duty without any reservations but is free of the cravings of the results that are obtained from the act. This attitude is difficult to acquire because we are taught to hanker after the fruits of our labour and any failure to obtain the desired results leads you to frustration and negative thinking. Also, constant attachment to the results leads you to stress, competition and aggressiveness. This has led to increased incidences of stress, diabetes, depression, heart ailments and suicides and has led many youngsters to use drugs, alcohol and cigarettes. Hence following the teaching of Krishna in Gita, wherein he advises Arjun: “You are entitled to an action but not its fruits” will lead you to a happy and stress free life.

A karma yogi realizes this and hence he follows the path of detachment. But this does not make him dull or inefficient. On the contrary, he channelizes his entire energy into the tasks at hand with complete vigour as his energy is not dissipated and gives it a best shot. Hence the results of his actions are the best and he gets good fruits. He does not run after pleasure but pleasure follows him. This makes him a pleasant person to be around and thus enjoys success in his life.

The law of attraction has been around for centuries, however, only recently has it come into the eye oif the world through the book and DVD 'The Secret'. Once known only ny successful business men and women of our time, and times before us, the law of attraction has become a wide-spread phenomenon, allowing just about anyone to benefit from the vast powers of the universe.

The secret law of attraction works by you believing in something so strongly that it manifests itself into reality. If this sounds like something from the X-Files, just hear me out.

The teachings of the law tell us that no matter what, the universe is with us and for us, waiting to be used to our advantage. To truly harness the power using the law, we cannot focus on what we don't have or what we need, instead, we need to believe that we will have more in the future. We will have more happiness, more money, more love, and more children. What ever your true desire is in life, you must focus on believing it will come true.

If you focus hard enough, and truly believe according to the law, you will see a change, and you will experience the true joy of the law of attraction working in your life.

Karma fits into this equation because we reap what we sow. What we send out to the world, thoughts of happiness, or thoughts of hatred can come back to us. Karma is basically a manifestation of our anger, greed, unhappiness, or misery. If we create these things,they come back to us.

The law of attraction owes a lot to the Hindu concept of karma and dharma. Karma implies a cause and effect. Each of us is different and hence, contributes differently to our lives. But we ourselves reap the results of our conducts. Good conduct breeds good results. Dharma is relevant to the law of attraction as dharma means purpose in life. Each of us has a purpose in life. The law of attraction speaks to identifying the aim of ones life through self discovery. Hinduism supposes this end to be universal welfare, an extension of the law of attraction.

Ancient Hindu doctrines preached the idea that a persons place in the world is dependent upon his thought and practices. Ancient Hindu philosophies suppose that a persons course of life is determined by his conducts in the previous birth. This implies that if someone had contributed significantly to universal goodness in his past life, they are likely to follow the same path in his next life.

Positive thinking, which is an oft quoted phrase in the law of attraction, also finds its place in Hinduism. One, who is optimist in his attitude towards life, strives for a positive end, whereby he will find happiness. This happiness, according to Hinduism, does not mean wealth or power, but a sense of satisfaction and a feeling of completeness.

Both Hinduism and the law of attraction posit the concept of spiritual unity. Spiritual unity points to mental integrity. The mind should be absolutely clear of its mission and this should correspond in the actions. The mind, according to both Hinduism and the law of attraction, should be able to withstand all external disturbances and remain focused on what it wants to achieve. The means or the ways to attain the end may change in the course of action, but not the end.

Hinduism defines the end as something abstract. It is the success of ones will, fortitude, and perseverance. It does not refer to monetary success, or a gain of power. The success is a state of mind, a sense of fulfillment, a sense of satisfaction. This is what is referred to as abundance, by the law of attraction.

Karma is a series of cause and effect. It is a cycle of certain actions and their subsequent results. Your own experiences can yield to certain joy and pain not only to yourself but also to others associated with you.

Oftentimes, we link God with Karma. This may due to a fact that we can see Him as the One who can give out punishments when we do wrong and give rewards when we do well. Karma goes hand in hand with the golden rule "Do not do unto others, what you do not want others to do unto you".

Karma not only concerns punishments, vengeance or rewards; it is the effect of the deeds you created in the past, present and future. Usually, we see Karma to be the good and the bad. Good karma is satisfying or what you desire. An example of good karma is eating the best food, traveling to the best part of the world or having a multitude of friends because of being helpful. Bad karma is the unnecessary events and unpleasant such as suffering from poverty and diseases among members of the family due perhaps to having an unmerciful life and one involving crimes.

How then will you take advantage of the Karmic laws? Being cyclical, it never ends, which is why we should take hold of the good benefits it can give. Here are some tips of handling Karma:

1. If you are recently having a favorable status, you have enough money and an opportunity to expand, take advantage by investing your fortune in good and fair businesses. Any business which is a product of sweat and blood and not due to some illegal transactions will bring forth more wealth.

2. Being in a not so good situation like poverty should not be treated as a disadvantage. This should be a motivator for you to be ambitious and move to reach your goals. "This too may pass", as God implies and your own perseverance can progress your future and your Karma.

3. Karma is a repetitive process; you should be aware about it. When having opportunities to grow like a good job offer, grab it.

4. Karma can be a means of preventing you to be in trouble. If someone is trying to persuade you to snatch or brawl, you might as well think first of the causes it will bring. Be on the right side always and open your mind for all the consequences an act can bring.

5. Inhibit yourself from complaining and putting the blame on other people. Negative thoughts produce negative vibrations that will eventually affect your views in life. Karma can be advantageous by providing you an understanding and a positive outlook in life.

6. Pray and count your blessings. God is the provider of all graces. He knows all that troubles us and that makes us happy. Counting your blessings and thanking God always is a good way to have a smooth life and a good Karma.

When analyzed, Karma is advantageous to any person practicing it. It is a way of looking upon your weakness and seeking for ways to strengthen your character, to feed your soul and to have a positive outlook in life. Life's shortcomings are not altogether bad. Hardships are necessary for you to be patient and to gain strength; poverty is present to allow us to be generous and opportunities are meager to allow us to grow. However, treating every body fairly and doing good deeds will always bring back blessings to you.

Some of us believe that we have full control over our lives. However, this may not be entirely true. Destiny or fate plays a very important role in our lives irrespective of our gender, race, religion, nationality etc. To explain the concept of destiny, we need to understand what destiny is. The popular western view is that we are in control of our lives and everything that happens to us is because of our own choice. On the other hand, the popular eastern view is that not every thing that happens to us is under our control and that we are nothing but puppets in a preordained plan.

However, neither of these views are completely correct. According to the science of Spirituality, in the current times 65% of our lives are ruled by Destiny and 35% by wilful action. However, we can overcome the 65% of the Destiny part, by using the 35% of our wilful action to undertake the correct spiritual practice.

Destiny is when one has no control over life situations. Wilful action is that portion of one’s life, which is still under one’s control.

An example of wilful action: Let us take an example of a person who is drunk and has a poorly maintained car. In this state he decides to drive his car down a steep mountainside, crossing speed limits. He loses control of his car and skids off the road down the mountainside. Would that be an accident caused by destiny or wilful action? It would be due to his wilful action and not due to Destiny as he could have chosen not to drink and drive. He also had the option of keeping his car well maintained and could have driven it within the speed limits.

An example of an event influenced by destiny: Let us take another example wherein the person does not drink, drives his well-maintained car carefully, down the same mountainside within speed limits. All of a sudden, a portion of the road collapses due to a landslide and he meets with an accident. In this case, the person had no control over the landslide that occurred and hence this is a destined event.

Destiny heavily influences many aspects of our lives, such as the decisions that we make, with whom we spend our lives etc. All major events in our life such as birth, marriage, major illnesses, accidents and death are pre-destined.

Now, let us see why and how Destiny is created by us.

Destiny and the rule of Give-and-Take

According to the ‘Law of Karma’, every positive deed generates a ‘merit’ while every negative deed generates a ‘demerit’ or a sin. Subsequently one has to reap the results of one’s deeds as a part of destiny. Whenever one does a good deed to others, it is bound to give a positive return (in the form of some happiness). Whenever one inflicts harm, it is bound to give a negative return in the form of sorrow in some form. It cannot be undone by a simple ‘Sorry’! The ‘law of Karma’ is infallible. Throughout our lives, we are either settling an old account i.e. fulfilling our destiny, or creating a new one. If for some reason, the account cannot be settled in this birth, it gets carried over to the next birth. We are not consciously aware of the give-and-take accounts or the destiny that is generated in our previous births.

All major events in our lives such as the time and place of birth, our spouse, death, etc. occur as planned in our Destiny. One is born into a particular family, where conditions are conducive to undergo one’s destiny and where one has a significant give-and-take account with each member of the family. In addition, one also has a different give-and-take account with different individuals with whom one comes across such as relatives, close friends, neighbours, colleagues, etc.

If we continue to use our wilful actions without undertaking spiritual practice then we will keep accumulating a give and take account thus increasing our destiny, and our spiritual growth will stagnate. This will keep us trapped in the vicious cycle of birth and death and away from the basic objective of achieving Liberation.

As Destiny is a spiritual root cause of difficulties in our life, we can nullify or reduce the effects of destiny only by undertaking the spiritual practice most conducive to the times. This is because destiny is completely a spiritual aspect, and can be overcome only with a spiritual remedy, which is undertaking spiritual practice as per the basic principles of Spirituality.

"When someone has a strong intuitive connection, Buddhism suggests that it's because of karma, some past connection". Richard Gere

Richard Gere is so right on! He understands that when you develop your sensory acuity through practical spiritual applications, you become aware of energy that exists throughout time and space. You then have the ability to discover blocks that may be holding you back from creating the life you want.

Please take a moment to check out how the questions below relate to your life:

* Do you control your life?
* Do you hold any past resentments?
* Do you believe in fate or destiny?
* Do you think it's too late to make a difference?
* Can you appreciate your past, good and bad?
* What is the biggest lesson you've learned?
* Are you willing to do things differently?

By taking the following 3 steps, you will begin to clear blockages from your past (that may include past lives if relevant for your spiritual growth).

Step 1: Understanding Energy
In our day to day life, we experience energy as people, clothes, cars, houses, jobs, pets, food, etc.

We also experience energy as good and bad, beautiful and ugly, heavy and light, loud and quiet, etc.

Energy in it's raw essence is abstract. You may wonder how I manage to communicate with people who have passed over? Or how I can see your probable future?

The way I am able to see and obtain information is because I understand energy and I look at energy from an additional perspective. You can do it to.

Step 2: Feel The Energy
Now read from the beginning of Step 1 again. Before you do, close your eyes and take three deep breaths into your body.

Absorb the energy of the words written above.

This is what you need to know.

* People and objects are light and sound constantly moving in our universe.

* 90% of what you do is at an unconscious level. You operate on auto-pilot. Often you are unknowingly scared to feel emotions, to let energy run through you.

* When you block feeling, you trap energy in your aura. This then weighs you down and can lead to tiredness, anxiety, sadness, frustration and depression.

Step 3: Observe Your Energy
It takes time to truly understand and master your energy. And to get the results you want, I suggest a daily 5 minutes commitment to check in with yourself at a pure energetic level.

You don't have to do anything! You awareness will create change.

Seeing the structure of your energy will help you to understand how your past influences your present.

You can observe your energy through the use of your six senses: Seeing, Hearing, Feeling, Knowing, Smell and Taste

Throughout your day, apply one of the above techniques to understand yourself better. When you do, you'll create the life you want.

The terms "life experiences," "choice," "karma," "and unconditional love" are all part of the same whole. I will explain them individually, in the way that I received them in my own teachings; however, they must be understood holistically. One without the other can bring confusion. Together, these terms explain the wonder of life.

Life Experience

Life is physical. We are born into a physical body, and we live in a physical world. We interpret our experiences physically. This physicality allows us to "feel," which the spirits have explained to me is the major component of the earth experience. The earth experience is one of emotion, where the soul acquires a physical understanding of emotion. For example, it is one thing to conceptualize anger and another thing to experience anger and to feel it throughout the body. The same holds true for love. It is significantly different to think about being in love and about the concept of love than it is to "feel" love and the emotions and physical sensations of love. When one thinks of the vast array of human emotions, one realizes how many lifetimes must be lived in order to "know" life.

It is the spirits' message that we live many lifetimes and experience many life forms and situations along our path to understanding. With each incarnation, your spirit selects the physical realities you will experience in that lifetime. You, embodied in your spirit, choose the circumstances you will be born into: the life conditions, the geographic location, the economic status, the handicaps, and the body type. You actually choose all of the fixed factors that will constitute a major portion of your life experience. You also choose your variable life conditions-those conditions that can change through growth and development as you progress through life. These choices constitute the conditions under which you live each lifetime. What you have chosen to experience is designed for a particular unfolding of your soul. The choices are made at a spiritual level-a soulful, subconscious level-before you incarnate into this particular body. The unfortunate thing about being human is that you do not get to remember, consciously, the spiritual choices that you made before your incarnation. This lack of remembering, however, allows you to experience each life fully and completely in its current physical reality.

Choice

Choice, or free will, refers to how you choose to relate to your life's conditions. You can always choose your reaction to any given circumstance, which means that variables can change instantaneously with each choice. Your choices have direct impact on both your physical life and on the growth of your soul. Each lifetime will grant you a different perspective and facilitate new awareness. Each will provide physical experience for the soul. You may spend several lifetimes experiencing the hardships of life without any inclination to seek God or enlightenment; however, there will come a time when the soul asks you to wake up, to pay attention, and to look at the big picture of life. Questions like, "What is the purpose of life?" "Who am I?" and "What is God?" will arise in you. You will begin to search for answers. This may take many lifetimes and numerous answers, each with a variation of experience and exposure. In the end, every soul will reach enlightenment because every soul is a reflection of God.

You may wonder why anybody would choose negative life experiences like sexual molestation, alcoholism, or being born into warring or starving countries; however, each life has a divine plan with necessary experiences for the soul. All life experience adds to personal growth. No life is a waste; there are no mistakes. No lifetime is judged to be better than another because each is a chosen experience toward enlightenment.

A soul might choose to experience prejudice. You may have chosen to be a slave during the 1700's in the United States as one dimension of the experience of prejudice. Since the soul is seeking to know all dimensions, you may then have chosen a lifetime as a slave owner, and then as a Ku Klux Klan member, then a parent who lost a child to the Klan, then a person of interracial marriage, and then a parent of someone who chose to marry interracially. Every conceivable perspective of prejudice could be experienced. The lessons in each of these lifetimes become a part of the unfolding process of the soul. You may currently be experiencing a lifetime with alcoholism-as the parent of an alcoholic, or the child, or the spouse, or the counselor, or as the alcoholic who dies from liver failure, or the alcoholic who survives and becomes reformed. Whatever perspective you are living is part of the divine plan for you to experience and learn from.

Nothing is experienced singly; everything is interwoven with others who constitute your lifetime experience. Once you, as a soul, make the choice to experience a particular concept, other souls help you play out these experiences. They are often referred to as your "spirit family." We tend to experience life on earth with a particular group of souls, changing parts, or scripts, with each lifetime. You will find numerous links and interconnections with your family or circle of friends when you start to explore other lifetimes. It can be fun and healing. Behaviors, attitudes, and trauma can be understood more completely from the deeper historical perspective. Here is an example:

I was told a great true story the other day about a woman who was researching her genealogy. She traced her family line back to the era of the Civil War when her family served as slaves. She reached an impasse in her project, and was directed to a genealogy specialist. She and the specialist became great friends as they explored different aspects of her family's history. They developed a special bond and were both glad their lives had come together. As their investigation continued, they discovered that they shared a common history. The genealogist's ancestral family members were plantation owners during the Civil War, and, in fact, were the plantation owners where this woman's ancestral family served as slaves!

Coincidence you say? Hardly.

Many times, in the process of a soul retrieval, I will journey to a client's past life experience. A healing can be done in this past life reality that will actually affect my client's current life-a phenomenon that underscores that time is relative. The spirits have repeatedly told me that time is not linear but holographic, meaning that all things happen at the same moment but in different realities. This makes shamanic journeying for soul retrievals, or visiting different lifetimes, possible. The person doing the journey travels into that particular time dimension. The ability to cross into other dimensions means we can relive or view a past event and find healing in what we thought no longer existed. We can remember a future before it is present.
