What Is Karma

What is karma and what exactly does it mean?

The word 'karma' comes form the Sanskrit word - 'kri', meaning to do. But it also means the result of an action.

I believe that we are responsible for what we do in life and therefore, what life brings to us.

Situations don't just happen by chance. We cause them to happen by our thoughts and deeds. Whatever we think and whatever we do creates vibrations in the atmosphere and the universe around us resulting in an imprint of ourselves.

If our thoughts are controlled by anger, resentment and jealousy, we create and attract those types of situations towards ourselves. On the other hand, if we have kind, loving and compassionate thoughts, we will perform actions reflecting those emotions which in effect we will also attract towards ourselves.

These types of actions illustrate the law of karma which is the chain of cause and effect.

The effects of our actions or karma may return instantly, later in life, or in another life time (reincarnation) giving us the opportunity to grow spiritually, and to become one with the Higher Power or God.

My understanding of reincarnation comes from my own experiences in this life time. For the past few years, I've been reviewing several of my past lives through the help of my guide Matoowah, God, and two light worker friends of mine with unique spiritual abilities.

This process usually starts with an encounter with a stranger who triggers an emotional reaction within me, which is more often than not, a negative reaction. Through the process of finding and releasing the emotion, I discover the causes of the emotion and find that I've had a past life with that particular person.

I've also found out that I have committed many thoughtless and hurtful deeds to others . Again, I have found out through triggers - emotions I don't quite understand from those I have met.

Once I have found out my past life circumstances with those I have hurt, it helps me to understand my relationships and reasons for my behavior towards each individual. It also helps me to answer the question, "What is Karma?".

Finding out about your past lives is an amazing road to self-discovery. For example, I've had many past lives with my now deceased partner. If I had know what I know now when he was alive, it becomes difficult to even imagine what our life would have been like.

But, I know this, he is one of the few persons that has impacted my life tremendously. Yes, at times I wish he were still alive today. On the other hand, I understand why our time together was so short.

You can read about our relationship and how I coped with the loss of 3 of the most important people in my life, in my book "That Damn Voice Again, Communication From Beyond".

What is karma? This is taking my life time for me to figure out and it is a an amazing and thought-provoking journey. I never know who I am going to meet, but I know this - it is meant to happen.

I keep my heart and mind open as I've experienced that life is a bumpy road and there is so much to learn from each bump. And if you approach each situation with, "what will I learn from this situation?" it all becomes and exciting journey.
