I had leukemia when I was a child. My mother decided the alternative route : change of diet from acidic to alkalizing. And a tonic. This is all prescribed for healing by hoaxy clinic in Mexico where they heal cancer without hurting the body system further. I'm 36 now so the proof is there. I had a friend who went allopathic route chemotherapy radiation and she died within 3 years. Karma is the same as what goes around comes around, follow the golden rule, the do unto others as you would have done to yourself.

My understanding is that Karma can only be negative. Its like CO2 emissions, or wasting water, the best we can do is to learn to reduce our impact. To do this we try to be mindful, to do less harm, to be a peaceful person and to have a warming and positive impact on those around us. We try to give light, to share insight, but in order to do any of this we must first look within to create that warmth within ourselves, to love ourselves.

Yoga, for me, has been a big part of this creation of "integrity" within oneself. To take all of the harm and fractioning within the self and seek to understand it so that it can be sorted and woven into an integral whole. Yoga is like a physical manifestation of this inward process and it allows us time to focus and meditate on the self. It is a physical manifestation in that we spend time focusing on the physical body, how the most basic breath affects the whole and how we can harness that power to sort and realign, to strengthen and lengthen tight muscles, to firm our muscles as we firm our resolve to be better, stronger, more enlightened persons.

If we spend time looking inward, we are able to have a more positive, or at least, less negative effect on those around us. We learn to be weightless in our interactions with the earth, and warm in our interactions with others.

Through yoga we develop introspect, through introspect we become enlightened, enlightened we learn to lessen our impact on the earth and to breathe warmth into our interactions with others. Through this we may hope to slow or even stop the accrual of karma and we grow and deepen our inner practice to become integral beings.

Something I need to remind myself about DAILY. There is nothing more important that being mindful of the type of energy you put out into the world. I remind myself on a daily basis of karma and all the energy I put out into the world with a picure I have on the lock screen of my phone: it's a photo of a sticker, designed to look like a Visa card that says "Karma: It's Everywhere You Want To Be." :D

I agree with bleustarfish. My son has cancer, he's 17, great sportman, handsome, lots of friends. Does crazy kid things and never hurt a fly. Karma to me is being able to deal with what life throws your way in a positive, generous and loving way. Have dignity and respect for yourself and others. Open your heart. Life and the generous hearts of other people will surprise you when you least expect it. Be at peace with yourself and your place in the world.

It is not only important to plant the right seed in the right soil to get a good crop, there is also tending, ie watering and pulling the weeds and trimming off the dead stuff. Then there is trusting that the sun will shine, and that is out of our control. Even in one life we can experience this principal of reaping and sowing, or cause and effect or whatever you want to call it.

Karma is the unraveling of dharma (the natural/appropriate order of things). It is not about any one particular individual and their deeds, but rather it is about things unfolding in a way that balances out the imbalances our individual and collective deeds may cause. The misunderstanding many people have is that only bad deeds cause imbalance, but sometimes well-intentioned or good deeds do as well. Karma is about things working themselves out, the constant rebalancing of the world. It is sort of like what you do when you are standing on one leg and you tip too much to the left. It's not wrong that you tipped to the left, but your body, your center responds to that by pulling you back to a place of balance. It's a constant dance, though. But it's not about punishment. It's about balance.

What you give to others you get in return! If you are positive, loving, giving.....you will get all of these things back :)

Karma is delivering gifts and messages to others that you later receive yourself.
