Karma by Scott Shaw

Before I get into the whole who, what, when, where, and why of Karma, I believe that it is important to discuss one of the most essential issue of Karma -- why people turn to this understanding for answers.

People commonly ask, "Why has somebody else achieved something?" "Why have they, when I have not?"

If you wonder why you have not achieved your life goals and desires, the first place you need to look is yourself.

Do you live your life from a place of positivity and goodness or do you live your life based in negativity?

Negativity is expressed in many ways: anger, criticism, violence, dishonesty, and so on. If you perform these actions, then you have developed bad Karma. It is as simply as that.

If you live your life embracing negativity, that is the answer to the questions of why you have not achieved your life goals. For if you live your life at this level, negativity attracts negativity and you will never be able to live your dreams -- because negativity is against the greater good of mankind and the universe.

If you find that you have been living your life embracing negativity, and you want to change, the question may then be asked, "What can I do to change?" Well, the first thing you must do is you must stop performing negative actions. Then, you must repair the negativity you have unleashed.

What does this mean? You must replace your negativity with positivity.

First of all, do not attempt to justify your actions by stating, "I didn't like that person or that person deserved it."

Who are you to judge!

As long as you negatively judge others, it is you who will inhibit your own growth as a conscious individual.

Or, "I did it because of my negative cultural programing, my bad childhood, or my family genetics."

Stop that! Take responsibility for your actions!

Furthermore, repairing your Karma is not like going to confession and being told to recite one-hundred "Our Fathers," or one-hundred "Hail Mary's." Those actions may right you with your priest, but it does not right you with the person or person's you have unleashed negativity against.

It is kind of like saying, "I'm sorry." That statement means nothing, if you do not do something to truly prove that you are sorry.

What you must do is, you must right your wrongs!

How is this achieved? That depends on what you have done.

If you have stolen, you must repay those who you have stolen from. If you have lied, you must tell the truth. If you have criticized, you must replace that criticism with praise. If you have injured, you must repair the damage.

Many people wonder why Karma hits them so hard. This is because they do not set about on a path of positivity and consciously attempt to right the wrongs they have committed.

Repair your own Karma.

Try it and you will be amazed at the results. Positivity will enter your life and you will much more readily achieve your goals.

It is you who must do this. No one can do it for you. Right your wrongs!
