Are symptoms arising from cellular memory due to karmic rumblings, less dangerous in terms of potential severity of the consequences? Are there risks in ignoring such potential warnings? Can you give us a tutorial to help us understand the dynamics and the significance in what we experience?

When cellular memory creates unpleasant sensations emotionally, or physically in the body, it is wise to pay attention. Not to fret and surrender to fear about being in danger, fearing the worst and letting your imagination run away with itself. These are common experiences that happen from time to time for everyone. It is commonly felt and expressed as "feeling under the weather." It will often pass without a serious liability occurring and be forgotten about. We would say that, at a minimum, it is important to recognize the vulnerability of the body and take it seriously, that staying healthy is not matter of chance or good fortune and can be ignored to take one's chances until something bursts on the scene that is unavoidably and undeniably a serious matter. Such episodes, at their outset, are a reminder that you have a long history of ups and downs in the workings of the body, and many times of difficulty, and failing of bodily systems to a small or large degree. The body is designed to be a self-healing mechanism and the normal homeostatic regulation of your physiology will keep you within a narrow range of functioning that allows you to be symptom-free. But as this phenomenon reveals, those boundaries can be exceeded to present frank signs of illness, whereas most of the time, changes are too subtle to be discerned consciously, as when you have some elevation in blood pressure or glucose level in the blood. Most of the time, such karmic rumblings will play out and resolve on their own, at least seemingly on their own. The systems of the body will work to correct the disarray being generated and that will, in effect, begin to repay the karmic debt of the prior wounding and the suffering that was not avoided or prevented in the first place. So we would say, first of all, that a karmic rumbling is most typically an episode of self-healing underway for which you are witnessing the discord, if not the healing maneuvers that will ultimately restore an inner balance, with cessation of troubling symptoms. We have said previously, that 30% of illnesses are actually created through the practice of taking an annual physical exam with a physician, who not only will want to know everything about what might seem to be abnormal with respect to your conscious awareness, but will probe you with various technologies to look for abnormalities in physiologic regulation through laboratory testing of what is in the blood and other bodily fluids. And often times, an abnormal result will prompt the physician to pursue it, first with a serious discussion with the patient about the possibility of having the start of a serious chronic illness that needs watching, and then possible follow-up with additional testing for confirmation and to look in a more detailed way for other supportive evidence of a provisional likely diagnosis. That follow-up, in bringing to the conscious awareness of the patient there is something wrong with them, begins to carve it in stone with respect to expectation, inner belief, and linking recent events, including physical symptoms or at least the medical encounter to discuss test results, with cordings from karmic episodes extending from the akashic records that will reinforce, energetically, what is taking place in mind and body. This interaction includes an interplay with the consciousness of the various levels of the mind as well as cellular consciousness, to further inflame cellular memory or bring new concerns to the cellular level of the body that will begin to express discernible physical changes. So, what started perhaps as an aberrant laboratory test result may, indeed, presage the onset of physical symptoms accompanying a malady to continue producing such an aberration in the physiology. This description will help you better see that how you react to karmic rumblings can be critical for your welfare. If 60% of the time you are not having a true illness, but a simple recapitulation or re-expression of surface characteristics due to their emergence within cellular memory, it is nonetheless a warning deserving of respect. It is important to regard the body as your temple, to be treated with reverence and respect and seeing to its needs by providing all the necessities for a healthy, happy life—good nutrition, exercise, fresh air, and sunshine; as well as soul nurturing that will keep you happy by seeing to inner imperatives for growth and learning. The soul needs to be nourished, exercised, aired out, and exposed to the light of day just as much as the physical body needs to be cared for. So, a karmic rumbling is putting you on notice something is out of order and it behooves you to pay attention and do something to acknowledge it and provide a positive response. This is what empowered prayer is for, to partner with the divine in making broad requests of help for any and all kinds of adversity, many of which will play into development of a physical malady if not addressed in a timely fashion and dealt with effectively. You have within you, when you partner with the divine, all you need to navigate and problem solve.
