Newsletter Vol 50 • The End of Karma
I was in deep meditation and received a sense of clarity that I would like to share here.
It was in regards to karma, healing, and integration which has been a great portion of the journey of my consciousness. It started with the release of the need to hold ‘healing’ in my vocabulary that shifted my focus on shadow work and integration. As I write this now, it is now very clear to me that the idea of karma in the sense of ‘working on it’ is coming to an end.
We tend to feel that something or someone (Universe, God, Spirit, Higher Self) is pushing us to ‘work on’ issues that perpetuate. And with that we are guided to do healing, shadow work, and consequently integration. To which the Spirit said, “We do nothing of the sort”. It was clearly shown that we repeat the same experience over and over until we SIMPLY decide that we are done! That’s it. And yet, we do not and cannot simply accept that it is that easy. We cannot allow ourselves to simply walk away from an experience until we are able to feel ‘done’.
What we even call “closure” has never been a requirement but simply a way for our subconscious construct to accept or comprehend an ending. At the soul level, it is as simple as “Ok, I’m not doing that anymore” like when we have an experience in the physical form and we say “Whoah, I’m not doing that again!” But here is the thing, it isn’t about saying it with our mouths. It is saying it from the heart, the subconscious. And to the extent we are holding on in the subconscious by saying “I need to earn this ending”, or “I need something else to release me (blame or permission)” , even when we walk away physically, the emotional body is still attached (resistance).
When one has an abusive parent, they often repeat that in their personal relationships which seems ironic and contradicting to what they say they want. But it is because there is a subconscious desire to repeat the scenario of their parents hoping to create an amicable ending (saying “I can out do them” or “I can change that”). Whether he/she wish it on the partner to change to stop being abusive, or to try another partner, the cycle does not end until he/she says “I don’t need to do this anymore”. Or what some have said, “unhooking” itself from the experience.
It’s been said the insanity is repeating the same thing over and over expecting a different result. Even as we plan our next incarnation at the soul level, it is still our Divine freewill saying, “let me try it again” to which the Universal Guidance responds unconditionally to assist.
It goes without saying that it is also a way for us to expand and deepen our love, gratitude, and develop characters that we envisioned for ourselves in each incarnation, too. But even that, once we realize does not require contrast to cultivate, will naturally manifest and integrated to our embodiment. In other words, karma (pain, suffering, struggles, etc) does not have to be the method for that.
So next time you encounter a sense of your karmic cycle, shadow work, or anything you feel you need to ‘work on’, remind yourself that NO ONE is requiring this of you. That you are simply choosing to repeat it until you are content or DONE. And it is as easy as saying so that releases you from that perpetuation.
From the heart…
