What is Karma? Karma basically means the act of doing. The cycle of cause and effect. It is similar to Newton's third law, every action, be it in the form of words, thoughts or emotions will come back to the one who created it. That is to say, our actions, which is energy, whether good or bad will come back to us in many ways. We will have to face the consequences of our actions.!!!
Karma is not about punishment or reward. It is about learning to transform, to awaken, to be responsible for whatever we have done, are doing and shall do in the future.
Each one of us, rich or poor, big or small, every sentient being, is out here on Earth to live out his/her karma. Some are nullifying their karma whereas others are still learning their lessons and many are creating new ones. The ones who have learnt their lessons are moving on, becoming spiritually aware of their existence.
By the way, Karma created by anger and hatred are difficult to dissolve. Anger and hatred will bind two souls together indefinitely. One would have to reincarnate umpteen number of times until the bond is transformed into a bond of love. The only way out is to forgive and seek forgiveness.
How do you forgive???
At night just before going to sleep think of all the people you met during the day and may have hurt knowingly or unknowingly by your words, action, behaviour, feelings or thoughts. Then recite I am sorry, Please forgive me, I love you, Thank you. Continue reciting till you fall asleep. As you continuously recite, these words sink deep into your subconscious, into the DNA of the memory cells. Over a period of time, you will notice a transformation, a change within you. You will no longer feel anger or hatred. These energies would have transmuted into energies of love and peace. You can also think of all the people who came in your life, starting from your childhood till now and who you will meet in the future and recite these lines.
Make this a daily practice and transform yourself into a better individual.
