Instant Karma Beverage Powder

[ahrismaniel]

Instant Karma Beverage Powder is an effect noted by shamans. It's usually associated with people, who go on to become shamans and spiritworkers, who have had a near-death experience. This "effect" causes those around the person, and/or those who associate with that person, to have their karma or wyrd or destiny speeded up. Basically it causes them to go through the s&*% that they would "have" to go through sometime. This effect is usually seen as inadvertant on the part of the person who has died & come back, the walking-dead-person type. Nor does it seemingly affect everyone around or associated with the walking-dead-person.

I "have" this effect. I think that I've always had this, but it was in the background, as it were, until my death experience of near two and a half years ago.

Any of you, especially you angels of fate, death and change... Do you have this Instant Karma Beverage Powder effect? Is it inadvertant and/or subconscious in activity? Have you ever focused it intentionally? Are you an active agent or just the "key" that allows Something Else to work through you and who just uses your presence?

I haven't noticed any acceleration of others' karma through my influence (subconscious or 'natural' influence that is). It may be of a similar process however, that those that come in contact with me find themselves more introspective and having to cope/overcome repressed issues in their psyche. A natural 'reflector' if you will...i tend to unconsciously create reflection in others (excuse any 'light' puns). Those that are comfortable with themselves find themselves in good company with me whereas those who try to live within a facade find themselves to shy away quite quickly. I attribute this to more than personality sync, only because i've noticed it both within people upon first meeting them...as well as within friends who i've known for years and have found themselves trying to 'forget' something. (within people i've had great relations with, as well as the converse)

I'm neither fate, death, nor change (enlightenment, reflection, and healing actually :-P)...but to answer the questions to my ability: It's more subconscious, i've found that my empathy does cause me to take on the issues of others ad nauseum...so my desire to 'affect' others has found its way into my personality i suppose. Along with a natural gravitation towards assisting, but i don't always 'intend' to 'help' in the ways that i do. I have/do intentionally try to help others through psychological/physical/spiritual issues. My perception of whether i'm the 'catalyst' or the 'agent' is just how broadly i would like to look at the issue. I find that my will is my own, but is both accounted for and to a degree designed through a connection to my source. So my decisions, however wanton they may seem at times, are ecumenically/simultaneously microcosmic and macrocosmic (excuse the puns).

Thank you, aeon. That was a wonderful reply.

A question; do you feel as if you sometimes "process" and purify other people's "crap," their psychic garbage, as it were?

But hey! I can heal too! Really! I'm a reiki master! I got the certificate and everything!

Of course, what happened the few times I've done it... Yes... Well... I won't go into THAT, now will I?!

I at times do 'process' others' baggage, as it were. As I found myself a trying to be a bit more 'wise' in my approach with others...i've been better at not 'taking in' the excess energies (not in a pranic vamp sense, merely in a hit by a train sense). Just evaluating what's 'out there'...using one's self as a 'filter' is a bit too hands-on to do with any level of regularity, (for me) so I favor the method of working within someone else....moreso than trying to process everything within myself :-P.

I've been 2nd degree reiki since 2004...before then i had more natural/intuitive methods....i acquired reiki (amongst other techniques) in efforts to legitimize my practice so it can be (and has been) applied in a more professional setting. I'm unsure if your tone was sarcastic towards those with 'certification' lol...there's many who have bogus certificates.....my cat, for instance, is ordained through ULC :-P

Oh do please go into it :-D

First off - I do not use the term Karma in any connection - simply because it is a misunderstood concept of old hinduistic system that does not reflect my experience well if applied in the Newage-interpretation of it.

I was dead ca. 6 hours - still being a medical wonder - but I cannot interpret that what my presence does to others in terms of consequences of this event. It is however part of my shamanic path that I fell dead and came back, it was an initiation of a process that kept on going seven years until 1996.

The effect of myself and my spiritual companions can be best described as a kind of cleansing. When manifesting stronger during dances the effect reaches extremely deep in anyone attending - I saw people crying during these dance, this also take place when I am singing or people visiting my manor.

Reiki-initiation does merely initiate you in a degree of this system - this enables you to heal BUT you need to do it actually. Simply knowing that you can heal does not change anything at all. Do it. A true Healer does not need any initiation into Reiki at all. It comes with the vocation-package one receive when being a Healer. Reiki merely cleanse the channels then in order to heal a little better then before. I cannot understand people that jump into Reiki without prior healing-practice at all: they simply underestimate the effects of Reiki-initiations done properly.
