Building Good Karma Can Change Your Life
Or
“You will reap what you sow.”
|
In the Bible the impression we receive is that “You will reap what you sow.” In Texas we like to say, “What goes around, comes around,” meaning paybacks usually follow after someone is cruel, hurtful, or uses deceitful behavior against us. |
The Chinese believe in the Law of Karma, meaning the premise of “cause and effect”. For every action there is a reaction that follows. If one steals, it won’t be long until something they value will be stolen from them. If we lie, when we really need help the most, someone with power or influence over us will lie against us. Sometimes it takes a little while for the payback to arrive, but often it is instant.
There is sorrow everywhere. It will always be with us because of people’s choices and their selfishness. Release it, give it up. We have a choice to embrace our pain or change our direction, thereby changing our destiny in this lifetime. All of the choices are yours. There are obstacles everywhere and if we choose to use kindness, courtesy, compassion, patience, long-suffering, and forgiveness as our main tools we will be setting a pathway for major life changes and inviting new experiences and opportunities into our lives for a much more pleasant set of results.
When we are operating as a sensitive, caring individual, treating people with agape (God’s unconditional love) love, everything changes.
The way people treat us and the little extras they will go out of their way to do for us changes simply because we are activating that agape love and respect.
When I studied with Rabbi Solomon of www.KabbalahInternational.com.
He stressed how powerful Karma is when it returns for the payback part. It can devastate your life. He also pointed out that if you have attached your life to another person that is a liar, a thief, or a betrayer of any kind, when their Karma bounces back to get them, simply by being a part of their life, you suffer alongside with them, whether you did anything to deserve it or not. If they are struggling, so are you by virtue of just being with them. That made me think long and hard about all of my relationships, business and personal ones, and what was really going on with the Karma impact effect, on their part and mine.
