from Jesus:
As I explain throughout this
website, everything is made from energy, and energy is simply the pure
light of God that vibrates at a lower frequency than its highest potential.
The consequence is that any imperfect condition is made from low-frequency
energy, and therefore the condition can be changed by raising the frequency
of the energy. This is explained in greater detail in the discourse
by the Presence
of Infinite Light.
You are correct that there are many souls who have volunteered to bear
a part of the burden of world karma. And many of these souls have done
this by taking upon themselves a severe illness. Yet no person carries
the entire weight of world karma. Each person carries a certain portion
of it, and if that portion is transmuted by other means, then an illness,
that was simply an outpicturing of the karma, can indeed be healed.
So I strongly recommend that all people with a severe illness use Mother
Mary's rosaries on a daily basis. I am not thereby saying that a severe
illness will necessarily be cured. Many souls have such a strong desire
to help the forward movement of humankind that they would simply take
on more world karma when one portion was transmuted. Nevertheless, by
using spiritual tools, a person can indeed consume far more world karma
than through the illness alone.
Another possible scenario is that a severe illness is the result of
a person's own karma. Some souls realize that they have a severe karma
that is coming due in the not-too-distant future. They therefore choose
to take embodiment in circumstances where they end up contracting a
severe illness. The purpose of this illness is to pay back the karma
in one embodiment instead of stretching it over many lifetimes.
One might compare this to a person who has incurred a large debt. Some
people choose to pay a little bit every month for the rest of their
lives, whereas others prefer to work two jobs for a couple of years
to get it over with so they are free to enjoy life afterwards. There
are many mature souls who will sacrifice an entire embodiment in order
to make so much progress in one lifetime that they can win their ascension
either at the end of that lifetime or in the next lifetime. Such souls
can indeed be burdened by a severe illness or other conditions for decades
or even a lifetime.
Obviously, the goal of the soul is to pay back its karma. It is not
the goal of the soul to suffer with a severe illness. So if the soul
can find other ways to pay back its karma, the illness can indeed be
cured. Again, I recommend using spiritual tools for the consuming of
all karma and negative energy. Obviously, if one of your loved ones
is incapacitated by a severe illness, you can use spiritual tools to
transmute that karma for them.
There is, however, a third scenario that needs to be taken into account.
In many cases, a severe illness is not just a result of a person's past
karma. The illness is actually caused by wrong beliefs or emotional
wounds in the soul. So in this case it is not enough to use a spiritual
technique to transmute the karma. It would be necessary to use appropriate
tools to create genuine psychological healing. In many cases, an illness
simply cannot be cured until the underlying psychological problem has
been fully resolved.
My point here is that there are many people who suffer with a severe
illness because of unresolved psychology. So even though these people
suffer for a lifetime, they are not actually paying back any karma,
and therefore they are not making any spiritual progress. It is simply
unnecessary suffering that does no good for anyone whatsoever.
In some cases, a soul can actually use a severe illness as an excuse
for not dealing with its psychological limitations. An incapacitating
illness can seem like the perfect excuse for not taking charge of your
life, for not resolving your psychology or for not taking actions the
soul needs to take in order to move forward on the spiritual path. So
my point is that there are some people who suffer from a twofold problem.
One problem is the underlying psychological limitation. The second is
that on top of the underlying limitation is a very deep-seated attitude
that the soul does not want to deal with the underlying problem. And
the soul is even willing to take on and maintain a severe illness in
order to avoid dealing with the problem. Such souls are simply not willing
to change themselves and their approach to life. They can be very difficult
to reach, and therefore the illness can be very difficult to cure. No
amount of rosaries or prayers will remove such an illness until the
person decides to take responsibility for his or her situation and do
something about the underlying cause.
Such souls would do well to contemplate the definition of insanity given
by Albert Einstein: Insanity is when you keep doing the same thing,
yet expect different results.
