Review of Rachel Madorsky’s “Symphony of Your Karma”
In this so-well written book, Rachel Madorsky gives us a fulsome, scholarly and significant history of Karma as it has been understood through the centuries. She has shown its influence on societies and influential thinkers alike.
Her most important message:
Whereas Karma may be a Cosmic Law, -- it (like everything else in our lives and destinies) can be examined with enlightenment, and can be managed for the betterment of the individual, the society and the progeny who follow.
And listen to Madorsky in this respect:
“Why does Karma play such an important role in our daily lives? If we develop the skills and understanding to access the information about our karma and past lives, we are forewarned, and we may be able to correct many things that seem otherwise impossible to change. In every second of our lives, we are all given a chance to make different choices and redirect our destinies There is always a way out of every situation. We just have to be willing to do the work to change our course.”
And:
Quoting Madorsky again: “If we develop the skills and understanding to access the information about our karma and past lives, we are forewarned, and we may be able to correct many things that seem otherwise impossible to change.”
This is a courageous point of view. Too many of us seek rules (of others) and then feel helpless to transcend them. This has certainly been true of many in their views of destiny and Karma. One hundred years ago, Freud revealed how earlier biological experiences may shape and influence our later periods of life, and that they can be changed by insight and effort. Thus - access to freedom – of choice and of growth. The same is true of past lives which may live on in their influence. They can be discovered and their influence changed. And all of this adds up to and joins with the Law of Karma.
The High Self can create and re-create ourselves and enable them to grow into Self. In this way we may view the Law of Karma as an outside, powerful influence, we can also know that it can become subservient to the High Self, and modified by our ascended selves, -leading to spiritual freedom.
“The human soul can be kept pure only if it’s given the freedom of choice. Free will and freedom of choice are the greatest gifts of the Creator to humankind! Each of us has the ability to create our own karma.”
So – Rachel Madorsky’s well-written, well-documented, well-illustrated (with clinical examples), lessons in Karma, becomes a guide in life for personal grown and spiritual ascension.
Many thanks Rachel.
