Everyone wants to be free karmically. We've spent lifetimes alternately building it up and trying to get rid of it. Today we have the knowledge and the dispensation available to help us to achieve now what we could never do in the past.

The earth we live in is a dense place, being of the 3rd dimension. Yes there are other finer dimensions that may look like earth, but this is where we have bound our souls in matter, and this is where we must come to shed that density.

Karma can be positive or negative, and both serve a soul purpose. Yet both are linked to a part of ourselves that is many times hard to access and understand. These can be deeply ingrained subconsciously. Positive karma is never an issue, it's the difficult aspects of karma -- our soul lessons -- that can be the underlying cause of great anxiety in the life.

Our soul comes in with certain issues to resolve. It brings with it memory of old habit patterns that we need to be able to learn our lessons. Sometimes these patterns of the past are so strong that they end up running our life, many times getting us into the same ruts over and over. But now there is help.

My friend Marjorie has taught me a lot through her channelings of the Ascended Master teachings. The Masters say that for them, trying to use the light to break through to people in this density is like trying to penetrate granite. It has been like that for eons. There have been precious few who have been able to rise very high in consciousness in this atmosphere, no matter what the training. Vibrationally, it was still an uphill climb.

Now the vibratory rate of the earth is rising and the Universe is supporting this because it is finally time -- time to get as many souls lifted from the cycle of incarnation as possible. This makes a big difference.

People have tried all means to lift themselves from the 3rd dimension: healing and energy work, prayer, dream work, discovering past life issues through hypnosis. But there is one simple means that has been on this planet forever, many times overlooked, and that is meditation.

With meditation we can both raise our level of consciousness and release karmic patterns with no strain. Everything is intention. This is a strong force. By holding the intention to clear and clean away the past during meditation, much power is added to that and it happens automatically. It may not happen immediately, but eventually it breaks the patterns.

So how often should we meditate? As often as possible, but for starters the Masters ask that we make an appointment with ourselves and our Soul and meditate twice a day, 20 minutes each time. They say that just doing this will really help align the soul, release karma, and reduce stress on all levels.

It's true that all this is my belief, brought in through the ethers via the Ascended Masters, but I have been meditating for years and getting excellent validation that this works for me. So I am offering this information to you to verify through your own channels and through your own heart. The choice is yours, but it never hurts to just try it. It could make a world of difference.
