Comments on: The essence of compassion (channeled) http://www.loving-awareness.org/2007/12/29/the-essence-of-compassion-channeled/ A Journey to Wholeness This feed is channeling based. It relates to metaphysical subjects about the nature of Love and living your life from a place of joy. It encompasses personal growth and self-help, but tries to be universal as well, encompassing non-dogmatic spirituality, community, and even some emphasis on putting positive change to the world.

This isn't necessarily the Buddhist take, so you can fill that in if you want. <br /> <br /> Karma is really about balancing. It's nothing about punishment. You can balance painful experiences or pleasurable ones. It's a way of learning, and also is a way to forge deep and intense connections. When the karma is outstanding and it's not philanthropic (balancing giving someone else more choice than less), this can be quite uncomfortable because it's an imbalance. Imbalances by their nature cry for attention. When it's paid back, it's a bond of love from the shared experience. This shouldn't be underestimated - it is truly a loving connection that was generated as a result of the karma. That's why often the most intense bonds of understanding come between people who have been through karmic exchanges - or even more than one. <br /> <br /> This could open a new can of worms. I could write an entire article on it. :-) More about the fact that punishment doesn't exist in the universe! <br /> <br /> I’ve dealt with a lot of questions about karma through channeling.

Karma comes into play for you 100% but just accepting Karma is not what I feel the answer is. An example would be one who did not work through their past Karma and/or replace the debt with that which is good Karma, might be destined to live with the Karma over and over again in each lifetime. I'm not an expert, nun, spiritual leader or anything other than someone who studies, questions, and applies. Namaste, Kris In my opinion….the guide for what needs action or not depends on how selfless the action would be.
