Guest guest Posted February 13, 2008 Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 Brandi...this info rings so true. You hit the hammer on the nail. Hard lessons for all of us to learn at one time or another but we all have to adjust accodingly by using our own inner dialog and interpretations as well as emotions. I think everyone has karma... karma can be both negative and positive. Someone portraying negative karma would do best with a karma cleaning and recharging with positive affirmations as well as a white light blessing. We all look at KARMA differently from various perspectives.

I don't see karma as punishment or reward. I see karma as more of a reflection of our innate reactions, as carried both through the current and past lives. > > There are four fundamental human reactions, flight, fight, freeze and facade. All human reactions are one or a combination of these four " methodologies " . Each of us learns what ones we pick through trial and error, and they are generally set in childhood. At first, they work for us, but as we grow up, they become part of our habits, so much so, we even mistake them for our " persona " . A boy learns " big boys don't cry " , so he learns to hold in his feelings. By the time he's a man, he has no ability to express emotion at all, and he wonders why all his relationships are failures. A girl learns that to speak truth is to invite abuse in her family, so she pretends that everything is okay. She hides behind lies, hints and flirtation. Then she wonders as an adult why nobody understands her. A resulting pattern emerges, and we begin to wonder if we are " cursed " when the truth is, for the most part, it is our own behavior that is creating the repeating disasters. We don't " choose " the disasters .. but we do choose our reactions. > > I think karma works the same way. We use the reactions we learned in this life, and in lifetimes previously, to set ourselves up over and over again. There is no mystical karma accounting god sitting in a corner visiting punishment on us. We don't even do it to ourselves, not deliberately. We just fail to see how we're our own worst enemy. It's a user-supported energy system <g> ... god/dess doesn't have to lift a finger. The secret to karma is to learn to find those patterns, learn to understand our reactions.
