FIVE GREAT HEALERS SPEAK HERE
understood in terms of weaving. By your behavior, you sow the seed, spin the cotton to make the thread, and weave the cloth that you must wear in the future. The garment can lie on you like a heavy rug that no healing or blessing can lift, for it would be going against the laws of the universe.
During your life time, your karma can be recorded in four ways.
1. It is written on the water and is gone before you can read it.
2. It is written with pencil and can be erased.
3. It is written with ink. A special substance is needed to erase it.
4. It is carved in stone and written in blood. It can only be expiated with deeply carved suffering and understanding.
The first two types of recording are generally acts of light-hearted carelessness, some little wound, an unkind joke, a thoughtless bit of character assassination. You feel sorry and—it is gone. The third is done with intention and is erased with difficulty. A special soul substance is needed such as deep, true compassion.
The fourth karma is cold sin, done without compunction. It is carved so deep in stone that no master, healer, or saint can help to remove this in one lifetime. The patient should understand that if his karma is caused by something that is written in blood, only a counterbalance through good karma accumulated in the passage of time can cure it. An enlightened healer can only point the way to awareness and the building of a clean future.
In such a case, what can you do? The wise healer will guide you up the steps that you must take in order to burn your karma.
1. You must become aware. 2. Feel sorry, not guilty but sorry. 3. Take positive action toward goodness.
