Releasing Karma

by Sherry Stapleton

 

 

The path of ascension is an intentional one.  That is, those who are consciously ascending do so by intending their ascension into all that they do and all life decisions that they make.  Intentions are woven into the dream each day, week, month, and year.  As intentions are woven into one’s dream, then one is consciously living the life as the dreamer and the dream.  One creates the dream through intention and then lives the dream as it becomes manifest in the physical life.

 

More often than not, that which is manifest is not exactly as intended.  Sometimes what is intended does not manifest for a long time.  That which skews the dream into something different or into non-manifestation is usually karma. 

 

I used to live in a city called Phoenix.  This is a large city, the fifth largest in population in the United States of America.  A couple of years after I began consciously ascending, the weight of the city began to drag upon my body, and it became clear to me that I needed to move to a place that was more supportive for my body’s ascension.  And so, I began to intend to move to a place that better resonated with my ascension.  I made this intention each and every day.  After months went by and all attempts for my husband to transfer his job failed, I realized that I had to take a closer look at why my intention to move was not becoming a physical reality.

 

And so I added another intention each day.  First I intended to move to a place that resonated with my body’s ascension.  Then, I intended to release all karma that would block me from manifesting this intention.  And I became much more aware of what I needed to clear so that I could be free to move.  I found myself thinking of those that played major roles in my life dance during the ten years that I lived there.  As I thought of each one, I intended to release the karma and balance the scales.  I also found myself taking many short drives outside of town.  I often began to see pictures or experience recollections of ancestors that lived upon the land.  With each recollection I intended to release the ancestral karma. 

 

With each release of karma, I was able to untie those debts that bound my life to the city, the people, and the land.  As I detached myself in this way, I became freer and more ready to move towards my future.  And, after two years, I finally manifest the new location.

 

And so I share with you today that the releasing of karma is one of the very basic activities in the process of ascension.  Much of our karma can be released during dreamtime as we work within our Healing Temples.  I find that perhaps 80% to 90% of the karma that is up for me to be cleared in any given day is done as I sleep.  However, there is always a portion of what I am clearing that needs to come to my conscious awareness so that I can understand the patterning underlying the karma.  In understanding the patterning, I am better able to recognize if the same type of karma repeats itself.  And I get to know myself and my struggle to a greater degree, so that I can assist those around me in their path of ascension. 

 

There are many ways to release karma so that it does not have to be experienced in the physical life.  When I first began my conscious ascension (even before we were aware of the Healing Temples), I had a very simple intention that I made before going to sleep each night.  I would intend to release my karma this way:

 

“I intend to release my karma with each member of my family and my birth family and balance the scales in full.  I intend to release my karma with all bosses and co-workers I have had and balance the scales in full.  I intend to release my karma with all landlords that I have had and balance the scales in full.  I intend to release my karma with all teachers and students I have had and balance the scales in full.”

 

This simple intention helped me to free myself from the binds that kept me attached to all those I had interacted with in my life dance up to that time.  As I released the karmic debt with each one, I could cancel all energetic agreements made and burn off any attachments that remained.  And if there were any pieces or parts of myself being held by the other, these could be retrieved, and whatever pieces or parts of theirs that I held could be returned.

 

This is a simple intention and good for those who are just starting out in their conscious ascension journey.  For those that have been reading the SSOA website, or for those that have been working upon their ascension for a while, you may be working upon clearing karma for those ancestors to whom you are related.  As we clear our karma from this lifetime as well as for our ancestors, then we are able to transcend a particular you may be familiar with the blessings of the Absolute Forgiveness tone.  Absolute forgiveness allows a karmic pattern to be released throughout all experiences of this physical life of the intender as well as throughout all ancestral experiences.  In so doing, the karmic pattern does not have to be experienced each time a new bandwidth of karma is entered. 

 

The tone of Absolute Forgiveness is held by the Rose Quartz kingdom and is explained in the article on the SSOA website from this kingdom.  There are other very supportive tones in the other articles from the Mineral Kingdom.  These include Absolute Love from the Amethyst Kingdom, Absolute Truth from the Amber Kingdom, and Absolute Compassion from the Turquoise Kingdom.  I have found it helpful to use these tones when I am working to clear a karmic pattern throughout my ancestry. 

 

So if, for example, I am working upon releasing all patterning associated with rejection, I will make a longer intention such as this:

 

“I intend to release all karma associated with rejection.  I intend to call forward the birth tapestries of all I have known in this life dance – past, present, and future.  I intend to place my tapestry on top of these and run the tones of Forgiveness and Understanding, pale pink and pale violet, through and between all the lineages, releasing all related karma that I am able to release in this moment, as I understand and transcend the underlying thought forms and patterning. 

 

I intend to call forward on my left side all ancestors who ever rejected another.  I intend to call forward on my right side all ancestors who ever were rejected.  I understand that I have played all sides of the dance of rejection throughout my ancestry.  I intend to bathe all ancestral experiences of rejection with Absolute Forgiveness, Absolute Love, Absolute Truth, and Absolute Compassion.

 

I intend to balance the scales with each I have been able to complete with in this moment, returning all that I gained from them or that my ancestors gained from their ancestors, and retrieving all that I gave away or that my ancestors gave away in the exchange.”

 

It is good to be aware that a broad intention like this may bring about much emotional recollection.  So, intending to clear one’s karma at a pace that honors the form is good to do each day. 

 

Finally, sometimes one might experience what we like to call a “bad ascension day.”  These are the days where one might feel that they have been hit by a big truck.  One may lay on the couch for hours wondering what in the heck is going on.  At these times, I find it helpful to push out any karma that is not up to be cleared in that moment, allowing me to reduce the issue to a more manageable size.  A helpful intention for this goes:

 

“I intend to push all karma and patterning that is future in nature into the future.  I intend to push all karma and patterning that I have already cleared back into the past to the point at which I transcended it.  I intend to release to the aurora all karma and patterning that is not my legitimate debt, returning it to whomsoever it belongs.”

 

As I am able to focus upon only what is mine to clear in the moment, then I can begin to release the karma as normal. 

 

If there is a new area of karma that I am beginning to release, it often will take me a week or more of focus in order to clear the karmic pattern in full.  This is when the mirrors around me in nature and in my life dance become very helpful.  As the intention to clear the karma is set, then those personal patterns within ourselves that need to be called to consciousness will be shown in the mirrors around us.  So, as one sets one’s intention to release a particular set of karma, it is helpful to be patient and be alert.  And in time, it will be as one intends. 

 

As one releases one’s karma, then the ascension can move forward in greater ease, and those things that are intended can manifest in the physical life dance as they were intended to a greater degree than before.

 

I offer my experiences to support those upon the path of ascension and they create a life that is more consciously intended and as they become more and more both the dreamer and the dream.  Many blessings to those who seek out this path and are brave enough to follow it.
