Life and Afterlife Coaching: "In the Interest of Karma"

On tonight’s show featuring actress Patricia Kara, we talked about her charity work, and later in the show, we discussed a little about our past lives. How do previous lifetimes relate to charity work? In a word: karma.

If your past lives as revealed in dreams, meditations or regressions have given you the opportunity to see how many good deeds you’ve done before, chances are you have some karma that will bring goodwill your way. Karma resulting from helpful acts is like interest in the bank that accrues with time.

If you have a past life regression and find out that, like so many of us who have lived many times before, you were in a war, or behaved in a way that had unfortunate consequences for another person, you may have a bit of karmic debt that could create some challenging life lessons for you...that is, unless you do some charity work related to the topic of your former actions.

For instance, if you were a warrior who killed others in battle, you can pay off some of your combat karma by volunteering for a veterans’ organisation or by creating or participating in a group movement for the promotion of worldwide peace.   Punic Wars of Ancient Rome (how did people have time to sketch on the battlefield?)   If you were a rager in a past life (rageaholic, not a partier), you could volunteer to lead an anger management group, or work on a hotline to assist victims of domestic violence.

Karma doesn’t judge us as good or bad, it only asks that the actions we create become something we eventually experience ourselves. By living through something similar to what we did to someone else, we have a chance to see every side of life, to appreciate that there is a spiritual form of justice in the Universe, and to recognise that we are all undeniably connected. The way we treat even the Earth itself is a form of karma. On this very day, each of us has the opportunity to make choices for the environment that, if we work together, can have tremendous results for the health of our planet, the rest of our lives, and for many future lifetimes to come. Not to mention the good karma!

“Humankind has not woven the web of life. We are but one thread within it. Whatever we do to the web, we do to ourselves. All things are bound together. All things connect.”
