BARF KARMA... Collective and Inherited Behavior Which is more of a DNA thing after the first generation who does it, causes a reaction good or bad. My teacher who was a Lakota Sioux Medicine woman, powerful said that we have 7 generations of crap stored in our energy bodies and physical bodies from our mother's side and our fathers that we keep living out in our behavior, it is why sobriety and practice is very important to help to clear it, 7 generations in the Native system is 3500 years, 500 years for each generation. When we move up the into the attention: 1, 2, 3, 4 and clear the 3500 years in us and behind us, we clean this up for all and the future. There is no need for a higher self which can be a liar or spirit guides also liars and beings that want to deceive you which continues the impairment and long term damage in the future by behavior, subconsciousness, things are activated that way without you paying attention, that is your work to pay attention to everything little thing you do, to know why and where it comes from that is intention, holding your attention the only thing you need to know and do and the only work you need. Just saying....
