The following questions were asked by a reader of the Chrysalis Teachings and I have printed them here along with the answers given by my guides and teachers.
Does a person suffer bad, good or any kind of karma by:
Question No. 1 – Not visiting their Grandmother because they are a little bit bored by it and too busy?
Answer – No one will incur karma from this unless it makes him feel guilty. If he feels guilty, then there will be karma, but not of a serious nature. It will most likely be repaid in some manner within the same lifetime.
Question No. 2 – Not possessing emotional strength to leave a relationship in which your partner incites you to inflict pain on another – actions you personally abhor but feel powerless to resist the partner’s will?
Answer – This situation will cause much karma on the one whose conscience bothers them about the situation. In other words, if one is sufficiently evolved to know that what he is doing is wrong and does not have the strength to remove himself from the situation that is causing him to commit the deeds that are bothering him, he will incur much karma.
Question No. 3 – Denying spare change to a bum on the street?
Answer – Karma will be incurred only if it bothers your conscience. If it does it can easily be erased by giving change to the next bum you meet.
Question No. 4 – Killing small flying insects which posed no particular threat to you?
Answer – This will not cause karma because the insect is in the stage lower than that in which the soul was involved. You will not get karma from the first three kingdoms, but will with the fourth. The insect is still in the transitional stage from the third kingdom to the fourth. In other words, humans will gain karma in mistreating animals because this is the same kingdom they themselves came from. The animals were allowed to follow the natural path of evolution and the humans were mutations of this kingdom. Because the humans gained the soul which is the piece of the divine past a certain vibratory level, they will incur karma. All kingdoms have a piece of the divine in them or they would not exist, but the lower kingdoms were the very first energy to fall and were not of true divine nature as humans are. Humans are a result of a piece of divine energy transplant, or a mutation. The other kingdoms were a natural happening. We are not making this as clear as perhaps we could and would like to address it further at another time.
Question No. 5 – Cheating on income taxes even though the taxes are for immoral purposes?
Answer – Karma will be incurred if it bothers your conscience. It matters not what the taxes are used for because that is not your karmic concern. That is the karmic responsibility of those running your government. Your responsibility is to be as good a citizen as you can by obeying the laws of the society in which you live.
Question No. 6 – Stealing items from a large national chain retail store?
Answer – Answered in previous question.
Question No. 7 – Being a “peeping tom” and infringing on another person’s right to privacy though the “victim” never becomes aware of the peeping and is thus not “harmed?”
Answer – What do you think?
Question No. 8 – Can karma be erased by sincerely regretting an action one commits that is harmful or unthinking toward another?
Answer – This is not usually enough to satisfy the soul. The soul is very demanding in that repayment in kind, when possible, be made. It knows that the experiencing of the wrongdoing is most likely the only thing that will prevent you from doing it again. Just regretting an action is not going to be a sufficient deterrent to your future actions in relation to this situation.
Question No. 9 – Does karma only result from actions against people? How about a person who burns a forest or does some other kind of damage that does not directly affect people?
Answer – This has pretty much been answered, but not clearly. When we said there would be no karma for killing an insect, we meant there would be no karma incurred against the insects themselves. You may incur karma with yourself by how you feel about your action. The same would be true about the forest or some other event. The karma would be with yourself and the determining factor would be your motive for doing whatever it is you do, such as burning the forest. If it was an accident, then your conscience is clear and there will be no karma. If it was a deliberate, malicious act intended to harm others, then there is much karma with yourself. Karma with yourself is the worst kind of karma to clear up. Usually karma with another is much more clearly defined and therefore more readily able to be cleared.
Question No. 10 – Is karma very specific? If, for instance, as a youthful employee of a design studio, I stole magic markers from the company, will magic markers be stolen from me?
Answer – It is specific to the point where the deed will probably be the same, but not specific items, as most circumstances would not lend themselves to that. In other words, you most likely will have something stolen from you at some point, but it probably will not be magic markers. To enlighten you a bit on this, you will be the one who will set up the circumstances for someone to steal something from you. Your soul will do this unbeknownst to you. It will even enlist the help of those on the unmanifested planes to accomplish this. Therefore, you will go screaming to the police that such and such an item was stolen, when it probably was all planned by your soul. This needs to be looked at by all those who are a victim of theft. They need to determine if they were being paid back for a wrongdoing they committed some time in the past. If so, they need to realize that the theft wiped the slate clean and be able to put it out of their mind and not let it fester into hate and a desire to “get even.” This is most usually the reaction when someone finds they have been robbed. What they really need to do is explore their past.
Question No. 11 – Ignorance is no excuse for breaking the law they say. If a person has absolutely no inkling that his actions toward another are wrong or hurtful, would he suffer bad karma?
Answer – If he is dense enough to have no inkling that his actions were wrong, then he has not developed the conscience enough for there to be karma incurred.
Question No. 12 – If a person does important acts of charity or kindness, though not believing in them and only trying to make a good impression, would he garner good karma even though deep down he was hypocritical?
Answer – He would not garner good karma. There is no such thing as good karma. He would not gain bad karma either against anyone except himself. The only result of actions such as this is personal karma.
Question No. 13 – Can a mass murderer actually get good karma by facilitating the deaths of certain of his victims who needed to die then, while getting bad karma from killing others and even erasing karma through arrangements with still others of those he killed on the earth plane?
Answer – The only way this situation could take place would be possibly to erase karma. If this is what you mean by “good” karma then the answer is yes. There are cases where one volunteers before entry to take on an assignment such as this, but they are few and far between. Incarnations are not planned with evil acts in the plans, only the situations and circumstances that can lend themselves to evil acts. The life of Hitler was an exception. He volunteered to do what he did to raise his own level to that where there would eventually be some hope for the soul that is his.
Question No. 14 – Why do so many rock and roll stars die at an early age? Do they share a musical karma? Did they make “pacts with the devil” to achieve their successes or were they all overdoing drugs?
A. Most rock and roll stars misuse drugs. Also, the vibrations of the kind of music they perform inhibit the soul while at the same time actually causing damage to the brain cells of the animal-based brain. Therefore, they are not operating with the full power of the animal-based brain and the soul cannot enter to help the situation out. The deterioration process begins and it is a downhill slide to the end of their life. Believe us, this was not part of the plan for these people. A little education in this area would perhaps help the situation, but we don’t believe humanity is ready to listen to the fact that this kind of music is physically harmful to the human form.
Question No. 15 – If a gross act such as murder or injustice causes bad karma on the earth plane, please give an example of bad karma created by an upper causal level being? This would probably be a very subtle transgression of judgment such as not meditating daily or spilling too much information to someone on a lower level than the guide?
Answer – We are not sure what you mean by the upper causal level. When one gets to the seventh level of mind dimension, then he will no longer commit any act that would bring karma or he will not be at that level. Those below the seventh level are still working on personal karma. They are working on clearing it up and will not knowingly commit any act that would bring on more karma. Most karma is incurred at the third dimension. Some of it is partly from the second, but as the first two dimensions have been closed off, any karma from below three is simply mass karma of evolution and not directly applicable to individuals. Past the level of three, levels four, five and six are the levels of cleaning up karma. As stated, sometimes even those in the fourth mind dimension will unwittingly cause karma but not knowingly.
