Karma Is Not Punishment by Psychic Mabel

I used to be very afraid of the aspect of karma. I honestly feared the thought of being punished for the wrongs I had unwillingly done in my past. Telling a lie, hurting someone without knowing it or the dread of what I may have done in my past lives.

The thing is karma is not here to punish us. We all are Souls made from an all compassionate, powerful energy of love in its purest form. Although some Souls separate from this during their lifetime, they eventually will find their way back to it, even if they are lost Souls suffering in self-punishment after leaving this life. Their guides and angels of light are always with them waiting until they themselves realize, that no wrong can ever and will ever not be undone by the power of our truest self – LOVE.

Karma is life’s beautiful way of balancing our Soul’s growth and allowing us to understand the other point of view. Compassion is built upon empathy and we can only empathize with someone or something when we understand what they are going through. It may come about throughout this lifetime or in one of our next lives. 

We only fear what we don’t understand, and this fear causes us more suffering than it does the person or thing we are judging. When we can understand why someone has done or is doing something, we can make decisions based from compassion – not judgment. Remember judgment is fear based and comes from our ego self, whereas compassion is love based and comes from our Soul. Balancing karma is where we can view ourselves and others through the eyes of forgiveness and compassion. This does not mean we allow ourselves or others to continue in destructive, abusive or evil ways but instead to have the self-power to change our behavior or walk away from those who abuse us.

There is a beautiful quote that “Revenge is like drinking poison and hoping it will harm the other.” This doesn’t happen, it only slowly poisons you on the inside. Your responsibility is the life you are living. This also includes the effect we intentionally bring to others. If that is out of balance, karma will come in to help you see the other side and change the way you treat yourself or others. This goes from harming ourselves and others as well as self-punishment and beliefs that we are not worthy of goodness and love. We are all worthy of love and if it is not learnt in this life it will be at our door to learn to embrace in every next life.

Karma is here to help us love, ourselves and others. Even the most evil and abusive person will have the opportunity to help those suffering in the same pain that they may have once inflicted on others and learn to understand the abuser just as much as the abused.
