KARMA - not just past actions: a profound experience

Gurbani Says, "Karmi Avai Kapra". The birth happens according to one's Karma's. The birth itself here means the monetary as well as other social conditions in which a person is born, the parents and other relationships that he comes into contact with, during his lifetime and the life events are all chosen carefully.
 They are chosen according to KARMA - past life THOUGHTS (including DESIRES and MEMORIES) as well as ACTIONS. 

The past life EMOTIONS (MEMORIES), DESIRES AND ACTIONS collectively indicate the path the soul wishes to take for its own spiritual development. Until we realise what  LESSON we were meant to learn from a certain situation, for our soul's development; we are faced with similar situations again and again. So if you think why it always happens to me, don't see yourself as a victim. Try to ask the question - What is it that I am meant to learn from this? The moment you realise that, you will no longer be handling that problem again in life. The soul will move on to the next lesson. Life is not about collecting wealth or status but about your soul's development. This development process doesn't end when one physical life ends. This process continues until the soul has no more DESIRES AND MEMORIES. This the point of Soul's development that Buddhist call Nirvana, Hindu's call Moksha, Sikh's call Mukti and Christians call it Salvation I think.


There are two paths we can choose from, to reach the final stage of our Soul's development. One through KARMA Yoga - by trying to do the right action. The reason we need to do this is that the moment we do something wrong by someone, we are trapped in their MEMORY. Therefore, we are bound in a relationship with them by KARMA, ready to build the framework for the next encounter in this life. If the emotional issue is not resolved in this lifetime, you are set by KARMA to have a relationship with this person in the next lifetime and the next, until both soul's have learnt their lesson and have built enough COMPASSION to forgive every past action and no longer have the desire to either LOVE or HATE this particular soul. LOVE and HATE are both bondages that create KARMA. The second method is by NAAM JAP - Meditation.


How did I realise this? Theoratically I have known this all along. But I had a very strage meditation experience that made me realise this in a profound way.

MEDITATION EXPERIENCE when I tried to get rid of the Karma

In meditation, I prayed to relieve me of any karmic relationship with a specific person. I prayed to settle the account right now.


I do not want any desires or emotions, +ve or -ve, attached to this person. So far I had tried to not keep any hard feeling. Every effort to help this person by sending the healing energy, guiding to meditate etc obviously had failed miserably as the psychic dreamwalking revealed. I didn't want to do shielding for this reason anymore. I wanted a lasting solution.


So here I am in deep meditation and suddenly the energy started rushing straight out from my heart centre straight towards this person with a feeling of compassion. I was puzzled and tried to interrupt saying I do not want any kind of relationship. And why is the energy going out from within. This has never happened before. Every other time, the energy has come inwards from outside. I was worried that my collected energy is being used. Then I thought of many other people that I have grudge towards and thought while a flood of compassionate energy is being released with such force, I may as well give it to other people that I don't want any -ve emotions towards. So I visualized a few other people but the energy just kept going to this person ignoring the people in between, within that straight line. I can't tell what was the colour of that energy. Was it green. or purple or a mix? I don't think it was 100% clear like water, like the colour of the pranic energy that comes from above.



Later I realised that I had asked to settle the score and give this person whatever I owe him. So the energy released in his direction was what I owed, which I would have to give over the years or lives. When no more  energy could be released, it stopped as if there was no more of it left. Then I saw a very grand building that was being built. Next the building was gone and even the foundation of the building had been ripped and all that  was left there was the dug up soil. So I understand that all KARMA has been released and I am back to square one in this particular case. Yes, I feel the equilibrium from deep within.

LESSON 1: Do not take your emotions lightly. Any thought, no matter how small, is shaping your future and affecting others involved in your thought. The worst part is that if you have a -ve thought about the other person, it first affects you before it affects the other person. 

LESSON 2: The soul doesn't see a difference between you and the other person. At soul level we are one. So to heal yourself, you have to heal the other person at the same time

LESSON 3: when you say, "I don't care what the other person thinks of me. I know I am ethically right." It is not enough. The other person's desires are also shaping your future.

Past Life Regression theraphy helps heal Karma issues

I have been reading the book "Through time into Healing: how past life regression theraphy can heal mind, body and soul by Dr Brian Weiss". This book is written by a Dr giving pages full of examples on how this therapy healed different people in different situations. In the Appendix, it also gives you steps to go through your own regression session. The author has made clear thro several examples how souls incarnate in groups and change relationship, genders and roles but continue facing same challenges until they learn their lesson and are ready to move on and the most important thing is LOVE, not to get through life as a materially successful person. My dad use to talk about souls coming and going in groups.

This morning I had the insight that the regression method is a long winded road. Even after the healing of one aspect which might take several regression sessions, you still have other issues and the new issues will crop up as life goes on. So this is not the best solution or the road for me.

When I had a successful meditation session and the green healing Gemstone came inside and sent green healing energy to every cell of my body, that was real magic. I didn't need to think of any particular parts of my body or of events that would have given me those injuries. It simply healed the whole body. I use to suffer lower back pain as well as really bad shoulder pain. It all went in seconds and never came back. That is why Guruji says that when you Jap Naam - Meditate on the creator, all your Karma's nullified. You no longer need to suffer those injuries from past negative memories and no longer need to come again to repay these souls that you have been re-incarnating with. So meditating and remembering God without asking for anything is better than Regression therapy and also better than asking for petty things.

Read the following article, it has great information on emotions and how they affect us in the long term.Regression Therapy

Also see this video on Hypnosis,  After watching this I realised that Regression is also going into hypnosis state and meditation is actually Self-hypnosis where we get rid of rubbish programs of our brain, stuffed by other people and situations and reprogram ourselves.

Hilarious Meditation Experience

On last Saturday I had a funny meditation session. I usually pray to receive the gift of singing so I can sing Gods praises.

After the chanting, in the quiet moment I saw an African black man. Then I saw  3 or 4 different african faces. I was puzzled as I have never met an African in meditation. Then I realised that Africans are known for their marvelous singing. So I asked this African man who had something white on, what was his name. He said Michael. I felt like laughing and asked you mean Michael Jackson? He didn't bother to respond to that but said that he would help me sing and dance. I felt amused but didn't want to offend him just in case it was a serious offer. I asked him to come everyday without waiting for me to call him as I want to sing God's praises in the most beautiful way. I am still laughing at that. Was it really Michael Jackson?

Whatever it was, my throat chakra had the intense burning sensation prior to the vision and also I feel that my heart chakra is overactive. There is intense heat in my throat and deep inside my ears as well.  Throat is lumpy and ears uncomfortable. This got be part of the Throat chakra awakening. I am hoping for the energy to balance out soon.  I did feel this intense heat in the throat in early 2009. Hoping all my higher chakras are once again awakening.

Last night I wrote a few very emotional poems in Panjabi. Throat is also the chakra of communication, so its got to be the result of the combined force of Throat and Heart Chakras.
A Panjabi Poem Ik Vaar Mere Lai Avenga? I wrote last night pleading Guru Nanak to visit my troubled life, for I can't keep Work Life Balance and can't find enough time to meditate or to spend time with my children to teach them important lessons.

Books of Alice A Bailey are full of knowledge

I have just discovered this non-fiction author and am impressed with the amount of detailed knowledge. She does refer to Patanjali etc sources of Hindu literature as well as others.

Guru Nanak writes that all reading and listening is in vein if one doesn't contemplate. On p.139 of 'From Intellect to Intuition' ISBN 9780853301080, 0853301085, Alice quoted

Cardinal Richelieu's words on contemplation, as the stage, "in which man sees and knows God without using the imagination and without discursive reasoning."

Alice says that contemplation has been described as a psychic gateway, leading from one state of consciousness to another.

Jeremy Taylor calls it the "transition from intense meditation to that contemplation which attains to the vision of the wonders of God, as the human soul enters the realm of the divine light."

Francois Malaval, wrote in 17th century, "This act (contemplation) is also more perfect than reasoning because in reasoning the soul speaks, whilst in this act it enjoys. Reasoning ... convinces the soul by its principles, but here the soul is rather illuminated than convinced, it sees rather than examines. "

Alice further says that through this gateway of vision the man passes and finds himself to be the soul, the perceiver, who can perceiver equally the world of spiritual realities anf the world of daily experience; he can look, if he so chooses, in either direction. .....the triplicity of soul, mind and brain must play their part, but with a different orientation and attention. It becomes simply a question of focus.

The brain is active towards the instincts and habits which guide our physical plane. life and appetites. Through right education, the brain learns to respond to thought impressions of the mind.

The mind has a tendency to record all outer information. It can be trained to be receptive towards the soul and to register information coming from that higher source. In time, we can learn to bring about a perfect interplay between the three.
