Neither Good Nor Bad – Karma is Karma

I love a good root word, and Karma does come through with a depth of meaning.    The Sanskrit root – Karman means, "to do, make, perform, accomplish, cause, effect, prepare, undertake".

At it’s root, Karma’s definition is the executed action and the intent behind the action.   Some Indian scholarly schools of thought teach that Karma is the effect of your actions. Some schools of thought feel that karma is a much longer term than that and it takes more than one lifetime to experience the effect that your actions caused.

The Buddhist teach that  the lesson of Karma is  always “volitional action”.  In a nutshell, the law of karma says that if you do good, you will experience good and if you do evil, you will experience evil.   Karma is not a judgement, as us Westerners think, it is simply an explanation of the cause and effect of our actions.   

Buddha also taught that we could change our Karma with our free will, or doing more and more good in the world.   Karma is not blame but the set of circumstances that we react to, thus creating more karma of effects from the actions.    

Karma is not bad or good so why in the world do we have a Good Karma Blessing Kit?   Because you can adjust your energy, attitude and “cause” to have a different “effect” upon the word.   The Good Karma Blessing kit has votives of our Emotional Balance, Healing and Needed Change candles.   This combination is perfect for healing and balancing the energy around you and adjusting your energy to change the flow of the “effect” you created.

The Emotional Balance votive helps you get out of the crisis and drama that is throwing you off base.   The Healing votive helps you pinpoint the actions that keep creating the unwanted “effect” so you can see how to heal it.  The Needed Change votive helps create that adjustment of energy so you can take a different path, thus changing your “effect” for the better.
