Many wonder how Karma–the Law of Cause and Effect–and the Law of Attraction are related.
If you’ve read The Secret, by Rhonda Byrne, you know that visualization (the topic of last week’s blog) plays a big role in the latter. To activate the Law of Attraction, you visualize/imagine the future you want and call-up the appropriate emotions to accompany this picture.
By doing this, you create an Energy Field that will Attract everything and everyone necessary to transform this projection into a reality. In other words, you become the Cause of the Effects that begin to manifest in your life.
Where Karma is concerned, you did not consciously and recently create the causes that result in the effects you are now experiencing. This was done by you, for your, and orchestrated along with you by the “Karmic Board” in the realm of Spirit–before you were born.
However, these two laws are synergistically entwined. For instance, if you were born into a life of use and abuse and do not understand that an underlying cause–set into motion by your previous, free-willed thoughts, words, or deeds–has caused these effects to manifest, you will view yourself as a hapless victim.
The resultant emotions you will then create to accompany this view will be anger, resentment, fear, and a sense of not being lovable or “good enough.” The Energy Field generated by these emotions will then Attract events and people who will validate and perpetuate the beliefs you hold about your personal identity.
This is why it is so imperative that you take the time, and exert the effort, necessary to learn as much as you can about the Law of Karma. Once you comprehend the impersonal, immutable workings of this law you will come to see that your life is as it is because you caused it; AND, it can transform at moment because you Will it.
You will learn that every situation you find yourself in can be used to (re)create a state of balance and resolution and to free yourself from any remaining Karmic Ties. As a result, you will be able to transform the negative, self-limiting emotions that accompany “victim” status into the positive thoughts, feelings, and expectations necessary to attract the love, support, and opportunities necessary to achieve the goals and outcomes you desire.
Karma isn’t punishment. It is opportunity; it is Grace.
