Heal Your Life With The Great Law

Do you have a lot of recurring drama in your life and the same negative situations repeating again and again? Do you keep attracting the same kind of toxic people and energy thieves into your life?

If so, you may benefit from learning more about the laws of karma and how to apply them in your everyday life, as these universal laws can transform your life for the better if we honor them in our spiritual practice and daily life.

Hindu and Buddhist spirituality recognizes 12 Laws of Karma. The first and most important of these is The Great Law, also known as the Law of Cause and Effect. This fundamental karmic law has helped me a lot to uncomplicate my own life since my spiritual awakening.

The Great Law teaches that whatever we sow, we shall reap. Every cause has an effect. Whatever put out into the world will eventually come back to us. Even the good and bad things we wish upon others will return to bless, or curse us.

Once we understand the role of The Great Law in our life, we become more aware of how we can eliminate negative patterns in our life and begin to attract more positive, new things. The energy we emanate each day in the form of thoughts, wishes, fears, desires, attitudes, and beliefs will determine what will return to us as manifested experiences, events and circumstances.

Intention is everything in karmic law. For example, you start dating someone, but you live in fear of that person leaving you, or betraying you, so you are emanating an energy frequency of fear. In the end, it is very likely that you will lose that person. Fear attracts fear, love attracts love, and gratitude attracts gratitude. It’s that simple.

There is a destiny that makes us brothers and sisters. None goes his or her way alone. All that we send into the lives of others, comes back into our own ~ Edwin Markham

Think for a moment about the repetitive negative patterns in your life, and review the feelings that come up for you when you remember those situations. Those are the feelings that dominated that situation and that’s why it happened as it did. To break the pattern, change what you think, feel, and believe.

A deeper issue is the concept of karmic penance relating to past lives. This type of karma requires that we resolve pending issues and complete unfinished business from previous incarnations. This karmic burden is unique for every person and most of us need not worry too much about this aspect. Most past life karma can be resolved simply by ensuring that your current life is one of kindness, compassion, generosity, charity, gratitude, and most of all forgiveness (for yourself and others).

What you need to transform and improve will be shown to you through your inner guidance. Life is a school, so learn from your mistakes, plant positive seeds through your words, and even when you are sad accept things as they are, and move on. For some people it can also be very helpful to get a past life reading with a psychic or medium, or even do past life regression with a reputable therapist.

My actions are my only true belongings. I cannot escape the consequences of my actions. My actions are the ground on which I stand ~Thich Nhat Hanh

Honoring the The Great Law is the first powerful step towards healing your karma in this lifetime. Sow only good, so you can continually be reaping only good. It is never too late to turn things around for the better and make up for our past mistakes. However, karmic healing is not about trying to change the past. What has already been done is already done. Simply take care of your thoughts, attitudes and actions from now on. Don’t wait a moment longer. Start today.
