1. I'd like to do a brief thread on the concept of karma, which has, unfortunately, been hollowed out in its transition to the western mind. By 'western mind', I am referring not only to the geopolitical/spiritual landscape, but the logic-based nature of the left-brain.
2. Karma cannot be fully understood through a paradigm of duality--it only can be once the mind has resolved the dualistic worldview. Some ways people express it--uniting the hemispheres of the brain, the yin-yang, the divine masculine and feminine, etc.
3. From a duality standpoint, the mind can only perceive of judgement from a separate entity--whether that be the Universe, a white-bearded God, the Higher Self, etc. In truth, none of these things are separate from you--it's not that you are "joined", you just ARE.
4. Once the awareness expands beyond this perspective, it can then understand that karma is inherent in our reality. It is part of the source code. There can be no doubt of it because it IS the reality. Words fail to adequately flower this idea, but those who can will understand.
5. Simply put, the beliefs & actions you choose to take will be reflected back to you in your reality. So those who choose hate will see only the hate in others. They will experience that hate. Another person, who chooses to see the good, WILL see that same person differently.
6. As the bible says, "You reap what you sow." Those who lift others will be lifted by that. Those who heal animals will experience healing in themselves. Those who search and care for truth will find more truth. Those who choose to 'sleep' will experience a spiritual slumber.
7. There is no outside force imposing karma on anyone. It is the lens through which we view the world, and our actions that result from it, that determines the lessons we receive. The Great Work, the spiritual path is to polish this lens and see the world clearly for what it is.
8. Nothing is ever done against your will. You give yourself the lessons you need to recognize where you can change to become closer to knowing yourself more fully, knowing your true nature. This is the nature of God, you, me, ALL.
9. The reason I find this thread important is because we are coming imminently upon a time where many karmic cycles are ending. EVERYONE will be faced with their shortcomings, their triumphs, their lessons. Entire countries and societies will be facing their collective karmas.
10. Those who have spent this wild ride blaming others, ignoring the truth, allowing themselves to be told what to believe, they will experience far different than those who chose to lend a helping hand, encouraged growth in others, and who stood up for themselves.
10. That's what this is all about. Every fractal layer of reality will be affected from your cells, to your bodies, communities, countries, mankind, and beyond. All you have to do is try. Try to make the right decisions. It is guaranteed to come back to you. Bless you all.
