Karma

As I gaze through the flowing currents of soulful evolution, I see a seamless continuity, expressed through an endless procession of incarnations.

Every soul is a meandering river-like process that links an infinity of lives together the way a Mala, or Rosary would its beads.

To Source, which is unbound by time and space, this process has never began, has already been completed, and still is unfolding - all at once.

The concepts of free will and determinism are completely irrelevant from this perspective.

The concept of Karma is that of continuity. It has very little to do with 'cause and effect', 'action and consequence', retribution and reward.

All of these concepts are misconceptions of the processes we refer to as our lives.

Dharma is a conscious welcoming and embracing of this continuity and our place in it.

Heaven, hell, sin, punishment, redemption, etc, are ideas born out of rigid spirituality, (organized religion).

To believe that bad things happen to anyone because they deserve it is a faulty understanding of what life is about.

To believe that humanity is bad, maybe for screwing up the planet, is similarly erroneous, and probably stemming from an unconsciously inherited religious belief in the wickedness of humanity.

The universe in its entirety isn't keeping tabs on what we're doing. Asteroids aren't being thrown at us from the furthest confines of the milky way. And viruses aren't created by a divine hand, or mother nature to punish us.

Anything that is occurring right now is happening exactly as it should.

The purpose of 'it' all is always the experiencing of 'it' all.

We are all consciousness expressing itself as humanity.

We are One.

Love yourself, love others, love all.
