Karma is Different than Cause and Effect

Spirit explains I Ching 51 – Thunder

Thunder above and Thunder below, or
As above, so below.

Thunder makes a loud noise. It does not
present itself graciously or even politely.
but on its own terms, and in its own way,
forcefully, so as not to be ignored.

Why does it have to let the world know
that it’s here, when it is here.

Perhaps it is as a messenger being sent
from a high authority, to announce
an immanent arrival.

A storm?

Yes.

That makes sense, weather wise.

It makes sense and is a reality
in any situation.

How is it possible to be warned
ahead of time in situations of
emotional, social, political, or
environmental disasters?

It is a law of life or, as some
prefer, a universal law.

What law?

Causation, or Karma.

Are they both the same law?

Yes and no.

How do they differ?

Cause and effect are sequential.

And Karma?

It might bide its time or …

Or what?

We can change the way we think
and choose to live, and this would
then change our karma.

For better or worse?

Yes.

Spirit’s I Ching 49 – Revolution

Spirit shares His understanding of Hexagram 49 – Revolution.

“Revolution follows The Well, and there is a purpose in this order..Revolutions create change that  might not otherwise happen.

Left unattended or neglected, well water can become stagnant and unhealthy to drink. When this happens, the stagnant water must be removed and replenished with fresh, life-sustaining water. However, caution must be taken not to damage the structure of the well, itself, while removing the polluted water.”

“It sounds political.”

“It is political.”

“Why?”

“Life is political. It has a purpose.”

I Ching – 50 – The Cauldron

Today’ I Ching – 50 – The Cauldron

Fire above. Wind below.

The Cauldron follows Revolution.

 

Spirit Explains:

 

Whatever is heated is usually made more pliable

Than it was before being heated. Revolutions

Change the civic and political structures of

Society that may not of themselves change.

 

What can this reading mean in my spiritual journey?

 

Conditioned thinking does not change on its own.
