Kamma.

To understand life you must understand the mind.

To understand the mind you must understand kamma.

To understand kamma you must practice profound love and awareness meditation.

Without understanding the karmic forces in your life, whatever you do you are always dancing around the edges of liberation.

Kamma is not a secret, it is a truth that everyone has to live with.  

What we meet in every moment of our life is the consequence of that which we have empowered in the past.

However, because kamma is subtle, we very often don't understand its reality and so cultivate fantastic ideas about it.  We think that if a tin of paint falls on our head as we walk under a ladder or we are infected with a terrible disease, that is our kamma. We think that if we are successful with a job application, or fall in love with a beautiful person, that is our kamma.  

However, whatever these things are and however we may want to speak about them, they are not kamma.  

To understand the truth of kamma, we must investigate for ourselves its origins and what kamma really means in our life.

 

May all beings be happy.
