Do we drag karma from life to life?

Many of us believe in karma, the law of cause and effect, usually related to the negative actions that one makes, this is accurate, also there are some that do not believe in other lives, they believe that we only have one life and that is it, so they feel we have karma for this life only... others believe in reincarnation so they believe that karma is dragged from one life to another, this is a common belief in India and many other places, they actually believe that if they are poor, if they are sick, that it is a past life karma that they have to pay, and they do not want to stop their suffering because they feel they are going to interrupt the paying of their karma... So is this true?

Not for me, I read in the best book of all "Wisdom of the Heart" by Flora Rocha, by the way if you do not have it you are missing the best book you can have with a deep interesting revealing information, she says that we only pay karma from our current life, we pay all our debts in this life, would it be fair to pay for something that we do not even remember, from a life and a personality that we do not even know how it developed? Of course not, at least not from my perspective, she explains which and how are the exceptions to this, only with very few cases, she also explains how wrong the theory that when someone is born with a physical discapacity it is not because of karma, and she explains in her book why is this... well I can write a whole lot more but well if you are interested in these kind of topics I recommend the book "Wisdom of the Heart" by Flora Rocha, my favorite writer by the way, I know it is easy to infer…

Thanx for your time...

I am not so sure if we drag karma from life to life, because i do not fully have the eyes to see a previous life. With that said i do feel like this is not my first time here on this earth and that i have lived many lifetimes but to know what they are i cannot say. i do feel there are natural laws which refer to karma, i feel Flora Rocha is on to something, i see that we must pay the debts here and now, to be in the now. Dwelling on the past or past lifetimes karma is this helpful or hurtful? I feel it would be very interesting to know of a past lifetime i may have lived. But if i was meant to know i am sure it will be shown to me. We are here on this earth we must change negative actions here and now, getting off the wheel of karma is it not what we are all here for?

Thank You elfwisdom very thought provoking :thnk:

Many Blessings

In my opinion only i think karma is paid back in the life time you are living.So you will get what you deserve good or bad depending on the seeds you sow.

HHMMM Interesting topic.

I do of course believe in Reincarnation. Karma as well. Cant say I have contemplated the two together though. Although I do believe that if you say are horribly prejudice, for example against an African American, you may return as an African American next time around. Is that Karma?? OR is it because once you go to The Other Side and review the life you just completed, you may choose to come back??

I also believe in whats called "Cell Memory". The concept of Cell Memory is this: Everything you experience / feel in your life is engrained in the 'cells' of your Spirit. Of course it is the Spirit which trancends 'death' and goes on to TOS. That same Spirit is who comes back into another 'shell' or body, if it decides to incarnate again. Those 'cells' also carry over. It is believed that many phobias (a fear not based in reality or from a real life event of this life) have roots in Cell Memory. Because the Cell Memory can remember the trauma of say drowning in a past life, and hence return in the next life (or 5 lifes thereafter) as an extreme fear of water. Not always, but many times these have the possibility of being easily pointed out. For example I will use myself. I am petrified of water /swimming / boats / water that I cannot see the bottom of. Basically I am 'phobic' when it comes to water right? Most will say something had to have happened in my life for that to happen, say I almost drown, or something like that. Well to my knowledge, nothing of the sort EVER happened in this life in relation to water, I just plain out ALWAYS have been petrified of water. Just ask my Mother. She put me in swimming lessons when I was about 9 or 10 for two full weeks. During the test to say I passed, I told the swim instructor to screw off when he wanted me to jump off the raft in the deep water of the lake. I can float and thats about it. I never learned how to swim those two weeks because I was petrified of the water. The fear was there before that. My Mother was trying to do a good thing, have us learn to swim to at least be able to swim enough to save yourself. Nothing wrong with that. I just couldnt get over my fear enough to be able to do it.

Whoops got off track.... is my fear of water cell memory? I honestly dont know. I do believe it is though.

After thinking it through with all that jumble....lol.... no I dont believe that Karma follows into future lives. The cycle of Karma is completed during the life the Karma was 'earned' in. (I know 'earned' isnt exactly right, but I cant find the word lol)

I do feel we bring the Love with us when we leave this earth, what comes to mind is the movie "Ghost" i am not sure on any other strong emotions but Love seems to be the likely one. Would this be considered cell memory?

Reincarnation has many roots one may feel they choose to reincarnate to a family line that they choose, others may feel they Reincarnate into the same family line, some feel they Reincarnate into another form of life (animal kingdom, fish, extraterrestrial life, etc...) Whatever the case may be or whatever we believe to be true, that is what is important.

Karma to me is ever present in human life, i see it at work all the time in my life. I am almost certain that we have this one Soul one Spirit, to evolve and grow, to harness something Beautiful.... What are we here for? this question has been my glass, each and everyday i am here on earth the glass becomes more full and the answer to that one question becomes clearer.

HypnoDude i also have a prominent fear in my life it is knives, i dread holding them or seeing them in peoples hands. Funny thing is the sword does nothing for me, when i watch movies of old battles sword to sword combat i do not fear this, only knives around me. My niece & nephew were cutting playdough with butter knives, sami my nephew picked both the butter knives up and started clinging them together, this was upsetting the noise was horrifying i hoped he would stop soon. I felt he should not have those knives in his hands. I do understand what you are going through HypnoDude i wonder is their a way to over come these Fears?

Also i do not recall experiencing anything to do with knives in my years growing up, so i still do not have an answer other than a possible past life.

Would anyone else like to share a Fear that you have grown up with, and still have not overcome, maybe we could all help each other to understand why we have these fears and how we could over come them.

Many Blessings
