Karma, Fate, Past Lives & Birthrights - Why You're Denied The Infinite Possibilities of The Universe

We respect those who search for their own answers in nrelation to spirituality, the meaning of life, and thenconcept of fated personal circumstances and events. Innour professional opinion, everyone’s birthrights arendifferent.

Let’s define, in this context, what a birthright is.
In simple terms, it's what is owed to you, in a karmicnsense (rewards and challenges); birthrights are the ncredits you've earned and the debits you owe from past nlife actions.

Contrary to popular belief and based on our research, nwe've found that birthrights aren't automatic entitlements nto the "infinite possibilities of the universe." Free will nexists, but total free will is only available to you innspirit form before inca
ating. Why? So you can't escape nconfronting the issues you're meant to work through, nand therefore grow and progress.

Popular New Age declarations such as "It's your birthrightnto have whatever you want," are inspiring and soundnpromising, but these statements are too often misleadingnand potentially damaging. Disappointment and feelings ofndespair and failure ultimately follow when the New Agenadherent learns the hard way that he can't simply erasenhis intense marriage problems and "create a dreamnrelationship," for example.

On the other hand, inspirational messages can be like nfuel for those who are following their highest path, take nthe action necessary to reach their goals, work efficiently nand purposely, and are destined to reach those goals. But ninspiration may be only a temporary high, an escape from nreality, for those who don't take action to reach thei
goals, or more importantly, have not set goals that matchntheir fate.

By the way, sometimes "failure" or not getting what you nwant is integral to important life lessons and even future nsuccess. If everyone "got what they wanted" all the time, nwhat would the world be like and how would one ndistinguish between failure and success?

Alte
atively, we wholeheartedly approve of feet-on-then-ground proclamations such as, "you can have anything nyour heart desires, as along as it fits in your karmicnand destined plan."

Successfully reaching important life goals demands ndiligent effort, not just pure inspiration and idealism.
More important, to know what's most fitting for you n(and within your personal, unique karmic blueprint), nyou must first ask in meditation, repeatedly "who am I?" nand "why am I here?" if you want to begin to make the nmost of your existence.

One person's dharma (what one must do, in accordance nwith one's karmic plan) might be to live a life having nenormous power and influence, and another's might be nto learn humility and live a modest lifestyle. One person's nfate might include decades of deep romantic love, another's nmight include decades of solitude (e.g., as a monk, in a nreligious order, or even in prison), perhaps necessary for nhis or her spiritual growth.

Remember, we're talking about long-term plans, as in nmultitudes of lifetimes that serve higher purposes, not njust about trying to get what one wants right now, innthis life, such as the most coveted material aspects ofnthe American Dream.

How do you know what your birthrights are? Keep asking nyourself. Get to know your higher-self through regular nmeditation. Comprehensive astrology and numerology nare great tools to help confirm your hunches.

Don't be afraid of discovering that your personal earthly nplan may not be as glamorous or seemingly rewarding as nanother person's might be. Everyone has an important role nin this world. Some are meant to make a difference in one nperson's life, and some in many people's lives, but allnare part of the bigger plan and ultimately we are all innthis together.
