________________ February 1995: Removing Negative Karmas Dear Students and Friends, We have grown individually and collectively in Light in past years, and I look forward to the rest of our journey. Many blessings of Love, Light and Divine Order to each of you as we travel in 1995 together. In the collective consciousness of our group, there was generated a question during 1994 which became known as the most often asked question” from students. The question was: In what ways can I help facilitate the removal of my negative karmas, so I don't stay "stuck” in life and can move forward to my desired destinations?” The answer I received was: In order to get "unstuck” in life and be able to move quickly forward to your desired destinations, you can do the following: 1) Spend 1 hour out of 24 hours in spiritual devotion. This includes meditation for listening, prayer, chanting, study of spiritual works, inspirational reading, contemplation, affirmations, visualization, etc. 2) Do “noble” work for your livelihood. Noble work means any work that supports and helps any life become all it can be, either directly or indirectly. Noble work would also include Ahimsa, nonviolence towards any being. 3) Above and beyond noble work, you must do a least one good deed daily for some being. So even if you are in a helping profession, you must also do something beyond what you do for your livelihood. There is a “Law of the Light” that says that knowledge is power and one who has true power within the Realms of Light must take responsibility for helping beings of lesser consciousness become all they can be. Sometimes, as with animals, this means protecting them from abuse and ensuring their right to live a full life. One must also work to protect the lives of human beings who are unable to protect themselves, such as the children of the world, the aged, and the sick. So your good deeds could include any of the aforementioned. They could also include helping someone in a daily life situation, like driving them someplace, helping them move, making a phone call to let someone know you care, cooking food and sharing with someone else, and so on. All good deeds need to be practiced until it becomes "natural and normal” for you to do them daily without even thinking about doing them. Good deeds and actions must also be practiced until there is not one thought left to think about what this may or may not do for me in life. We are creatures of habits, whether good On the Wings of Light and Love - 31
