DWQA QuestionsCategory: Divine GuidanceAs a healer, we were pleased and gratified to see the Ninth Divine Principle: “Healing and repair is the highest of priorities for the self, as no one else can see to this. It must come from within each person as a desire and a commitment to make the investment, to guarantee a happy future.” Most people are still unaware of how many difficulties are undermining them, and many of the rest believe their only option is to “soldier on” and may even look forward to their passing as a means of escape. Can you explain for us why a “happy future” depends on their taking action to obtain healing?

Healers, more than most people, are acutely aware of the magnitude of disarray experienced by most people within their lives and within their own physical being with the problems energetically they are exhibiting and coping with, with all the emotional discord and stress arising from their life circumstances, and not having the means to make changes in a meaningful way for the better. This is the number one dilemma that stands in the way of achieving the balance for implementing all of the Divine Principles we have discussed thus far. When one is wounded, one cannot keep up with others. There will be a lack, there will be a defect of some kind that shows up, and this will lead to further failings and further limitations that have a consequence and will drag the person down further. This can spiral downward, in fact, and cause a person to go under. The greatest source of ignorance about things being important that are little considered, fall under the arena of the role of the Divine and its reality, and then the role of karmic consequences for each and every action of the individual. This is what we are addressing here with the Divine Principle for Living—to pay careful attention to the healing needs of the self because all that has become unbalanced through all of time is still there to be reckoned with. Karma never dissipates, it is only marking time, in effect, and will revisit the person at some point in the future again, and again, and again, until it is satisfied with a repayment or a rebalancing in some way. This is the dilemma created through making poor choices in neglecting the self or causing harm to others—the harm becomes greater for the perpetrator, whether the victim is someone else or the victim is oneself, karma will out. The Law of Karma is relentless and will exact a payment and this will be in proportion to the imbalance created by the negative action that takes the person away from alignment with love in some fashion. If people had a better appreciation and understanding of this karmic burden and its consequences, they would be seeking healing relentlessly themselves to get out from under this burden because that is what stands in the way of future happiness. They will never be free. They will never be unencumbered at any time in their future, for any length of time, because the Law of Karma will begin to reawaken the prior issues and then the energetics will realign in some way or another to bring the dilemma back to the individual to re‑experience the consequences of victimization or the return of pain they have caused as a perpetrator. Both are unpleasant and debilitating and can only be prevented through healing prior actions creating the karmic burdens. This needs to be a high priority specifically because of the future depending so on the need to heal in order to make progress, both individually and collectively. The totality of the human enterprise will depend on whether a sufficient healing of old wounds is achieved. Until then, you will be largely marking time as a human society and there will be many recurring problems because old circumstances will be revisited and regenerated from the energies of the prior events, and people will re‑experience the same failings over and over again until they finally find a way to heal it sufficiently to rebalance things. In the process of all that turmoil and suffering, there will be harm to others as well, and so the great danger here is not only a failure to progress as a human collective, but worse than marking time and not progressing would be to backslide and to have a worsening culturally, throwing the world back into strife and chaos as has happened time and again through the millennia. Having come so far, it would be a shame to give up the quest when the endpoint is so close. The more who heal themselves, the more others will learn from their example what can be gained and how to go about it, and they will at once be taking care of themselves and their soul progress, but will also be teachers and healers of others indirectly by way of example and, in effect, become ambassadors from the divine future that awaits.
