What
we know as Karma is nothing but a
memory which we carry forward from one life to the other. A large chunk of this
past memory which we gathered over our evolutionary process as a human being is
known as Sanchit karma as opposed to prarbhada
karma which is a small part of our past memory which we have to live in our
current life. The Sanchit karma is
not in our conscious memory and hence usually not accessible though the same is
very much present there with us in the form of subconscious memory.
This
memory is not only there but also affects our karmas which we do in our current life in a big way and is said to
be responsible for certain chronic diseases and many of those repetitive
patterns including the misery which we undergo in our life. The reason past
life regression and experiences are very popular now-a-days is the belief that
by recalling or accessing those past memories one can get rid of these diseases
or patterns.
The
important thing which we need to understand is that we accumulate this past
memory which is there only for the reason that we have lived our past lives and
continue living our current life unconsciously i.e. in awareness. It’s only
unawareness or unconscious living which gathers karmas or so called past memory. On the other hand whatever we do
or live in full awareness not only releases us but also does not leave its
marks behind in the form of karmas.
Past lives to that extent become irrelevant.
Only because of our unconscious living the past
lives or memories have become important. If we can live our life consciously
then there is nothing like past life. In fact knowing about our past lives will
not help us in any way because in those lives also we did the same what we are
doing now i.e. doing the same things again and again. The only thing which can
release us off memory of our past lives is to become aware and start living our
life consciously. Once we are fully established in awareness then in a moment
we are free of our past memory or karmas. If we do not do that then we will
continue accumulating new karmas
unawares as we did so far………..BeAware
