Karma 1

Karma literally means action or the act of doing. So yes, as long as we have a body there is karma even if it’s just breathing or the beating of the heart. If the body is alive then there is karma. 

However, the kind of karma I'm considering is related to actions that have an effect on others and their consequences.

First off the consequences of any action we perform is not good or bad and it is never a punishment. Karma is designed to be an experience and since earth offers itself as a plain of existence that deals with duality there are two sides to the whole experience of each particular action/karma. There is the one doing the action and the one receiving the action. To complete the whole experience thoroughly we should play both parts. 

Simply put we should perform the action in one life and receive the action in another life. There is nothing good or bad about either.  It’s simply a way to fully experience an action. 

Next we’d like to ask why would we ever want to come to earth. Evidently, earth is a place where enlightened souls come so we may occupy a higher status in our off-earth lives. Earth is super challenging. Once we have achieved enlightenment on earth our status has significantly increased. And if we do it right we have helped many other souls to also advance in their respective evolution. 

Robert Schwartz has written a series of books, I found book one, Your Soul's Plan and two, Your Soul's Gift to be the best, and if you only have time for one book make it book two. Through the use of about 5-6 highly skilled psychics Swartz taps into the pre-life plan of various people in their planning stage before they incarnate. 

Evidently, we carefully structure all our life interactions with each key player and all the minor players as well. The inner circle may only be a handful of souls but all the players, may be in the hundreds. Every one of them are active participants in your pre-life script. And important life interactions are rehearsed. Such as the first moment you meet someone that will be important to the trajectory of your life, a dear friend, lover, teacher, etc. There are no coincidences. 

Wait a minute, what happened to free-will? 

It’s there every step of the way. If we are off script it’s usually a minor alteration. So in deep sleep we meet with our guides and masters to re-route our trajectory, creating a revised script and perhaps even recasting roles our current characters are playing. 

All of this is done with deep love for the individual souls and their evolution. It’s all heart driven action for the betterment of all. 

Earth is a challenge to begin with but many souls add more challenges to get the most out of their time on earth. Such as, coming on to earth with a sickness or disability. Or one come here as unique, like being gay in a non-friendly environment, even being ridiculed by family so you can’t get away from that harsh criticism. Why so nasty? Because progress comes from either discomfort or comfort. Many souls realize they won’t make much progress in their evolution, time on earth without pushing themselves. Putting yourself down in a harsh environment causes us to go deeper into self. Thereby exposing ourselves to our own refined nature. That revelation represents a big step in our evolution. The interesting point in this method is, a soul choosing the tough road will ask a soul family member or a deep soul friend to be the one that deals the heaviest ridicule or criticism, and its carried out with great love. (This is really touching my heart). This is why we always need to reserve judgment on anything we see. It’s seldom obvious. 

Wave Function (part 1)

In my previous blog I discussed the pixelated nature of the universe. How everything in creation can be reduced to the tiniest particles. Each particle containing the elements, characteristics of a universe. Self contained, requiring nothing. These tiny particles are not just the ground state of physical matter but that of spiritual matter as well. That would include angels, gods, goddesses, ascended masters, everything. In the highest of realms these tiny individualities are subtle vibrations. They are the finite syllables of the vedas come to life. 

Once we put attention on them, acknowledge them, they thrill our very soul. They are bliss incarnate, colorfully bubbling, delivering joy. Take a moment to rest in them even now in your heart using your internal sense of touch to feel them and the experience of their natural joy is yours. 

As a collection they serve as the hymns of the vedas. There’s a vedic saying that goes, “he who does not know the hymns of the vedas what can the hymns do for him”. This is a good reason to connect with these tiny beings. 

As hymns these tiny guys are functioning as a team creating a flow of vibrating pure consciousness. Consciousness on the move. This movement is directed therefore it is, expressed intelligence. This movement is experienced as a wave. The entirety of the vedas are a collection of these tiny beings functioning in unisons. In Latin “uni” means one and “son” means sound. This is literally what’s being expressed. This one sound is the fundamental characteristic of Veda. And Veda is the fundamental component of everything. We are Veda through and through. 

Remember, tiny sweet joyful beings, functioning in unisons as a wave, thrilling from the depths of our soul to the end of the universe. 

(Sorry I didn’t write much about the character of the wave function but the fundamental components of the wave needed to be introduced properly. See wave function part 2 for the rest of the story. :)

Cycling of Consciousness

Cycling of Consciousness is the precursor to something else.

Many awake folks experience new awakenings regularly. What I’ve noticed is each of these cycles have the same pattern.

Initially, there’s a grand overview like I am everything. Then, there is a second experience like, I am nothing. Finally, I am everything and nothing simultaneously and therefore whole again.

This really is the rediscovery of knowing yourself to be complete, whole or brahmam, using vedic terminology.

It sounds simple and benign, After the fact. But when you’re going through the experience it can be traumatic. Finding yourself to be either everything or nothing is okay but when both are experienced as your whole self and you are alternating between them you soon find yourself in limbo. Lost in no-man's land asking, “Which one is it? Which am I?” It’s psychologically painful.

The in-between state, many times is experienced as, “the dark night of the soul”.

It takes the alternation of awareness to mature to a simultaneous awareness to get relief. Once one is able to grow past the seeming duality to arrive at singularity the cycle is complete. We find ourselves to be whole again.

Within the growth of Brahman Consciousness, there is the development of the Brahma Sutras. This “cycling” of consciousness is the living day-to-day version of the Brahma Sutras. The actual stitching together of Brahman Consciousness. The putting together of wholeness, endlessly.

“Curving back on my own nature, I create, again and again”. Bhagavad Gita ch 9 v 8.

New Heart Technique

I was exposed to a new heart technique last night. A long time friend and enlightened soul called me. He was telling me about a technique he got from Jan Esmann, an enlightened Danish author, who I mention in my book as a Shakti Master. The technique goes something like this. 

Sitting in a settled state perhaps after some moments of meditation, allow love to radiate out from the heart. At the same time allow love from your expanded universe to flow in to your heart. Both of these flows are to be experienced simultaneously. 

At first it was difficult to conceptualize until I mentally particalized love. Love, now in these tiny little lively particles, could now be experienced as flowing from the heart and the outer universal love to the heart simultaneously. I positioned awareness in my heart so the experience maintained a personal flavor. Then I simply rested there and enjoyed the show. 

The two opposing flows served to tickle the heart as the bliss grew. Of course, I’ve experienced heart bliss before but this was a more detailed and richer feeling of love and the love was more lively. 

Give it a try. Perhaps with a friend.
