Sometimes in life it is better to
define something by what it is not. That is probably the best way to understand
karma. In our western world we often hear
karma referred to as good or bad. Karma is not about judgment. Judgment is really a very subjective impression. Good
and bad signify punishment or retribution if a deed is not morally correct.
But, morally correct is also a subjective impression. Karma is not the
impressions, but rather the result of certain actions. Karma therefore is not about punishment or
rewards, but simply the energy of cause and effect.
Essentially, the laws of karma state that every action, thought, word, or
deed produces a physical or mental effect. It also produces an invisible
intention or inclination. This proclivity is stored in your soul (the memory
track of your spirit). Everything that we do, say, or think, affects us on all
planes; body, mind, and soul.
Because the invisible effects of our
actions are stored in our souls, they endure beyond our earth life, maintaining
the potential to be energized in future lives. According to karma, the soul chooses the nature of its
earthly experience based upon the desire to present itself with the potential to
work through a piece or pieces of karma.
Karma is present energy that, under
certain conditions, changes from invisible to visible form. We look upon these
manifestations as either rewarding or punishing when in fact they are simply
results of past actions and attitudes. Basically life becomes what life does.
All creation is the result of
energy. The process of creation is change. So remember everything that happens
is the result of past action, whether it happened a minute ago or lifetimes
ago. Karma is a result of the past. Choose wisely.
