Greetings Openhanders,

Have you ever felt like no matter how much self development work you do something keeps pulling you back down? That will be your karma. Perhaps it’s time to start ruthlessly unpacking that karmic suitcase! The soul is yearning to evolve to a higher place of existence based on unconditional love and respect for all life...yet we can’t take our karma with us.

Once we begin to fully embrace what karma is, many of the problems in our everyday lives fall away. Karma is the harmonising effect of the chaos in our universe. It is the balancing factor that enables us to remember and become at one with who we are.

Whether we know it or not, we're all here working to activate, confront, process and release our karma. It is only this which will truly make a difference to our lives and our evolution. Without it, we will simply keep recreating the same drama albeit with different circumstances.

So what exactly is karma and what is it’s purpose? I recommend Chris’ insightful article here...

Processing karma in a nutshell
Do we turn round and raise a fist to higher consciousness for the apparent injustices in our lives? Or do we look deeper in our hearts and find gratitude at something deeper within being revealed? What are the basics of processing karma? And how does it relate to our ascension? You can read my sharing here...

What else is new on the Openhand site?
Is there such a thing as truth? What is the difference between relative and absolute truth? What's your truth?

Also at the moment we have a variety of perspectives on what it means to be awake. Check out “Awakening to the truth of who I am”...

If you have any questions, feelings or realisations then we look forward to hearing from you!

... and a few final words of profound insight by Rumi

Let go of your worries
and be completely clear-hearted,
like the face of a mirror
that contains no images.

If you want a clear mirror,
behold yourself
and see the shameless truth,
which the mirror reflects.

If metal can be polished
to a mirror-like finish,
what polishing might the mirror
of the heart require?

Between the mirror and the heart
is this single difference:
the heart conceals secrets,
while the mirror does not.

RUMI

Thank you for joining us for this miraculous journey.
Keep unfolding!

In Love and Light
