Karma and the Golden Rule

I like to share this book, Messages from the Masters by Dr Brian Weiss, a Jewish American who served as a chairman of the Department of Psychiatry at Mount Sinai Medical Centre in Miami Beach, Florida. Initially he didn't believe in reincarnation until he met a patient, Catherine who inexplicably recalled her many past-life memories.  

Some people could recall their past lives through past-life regression, near-death experiences (for example Duane here) or deep meditation. 

In the book, he shared about karma and lessons. Karma is not just Buddhism concept. It is the universal law of the universe taught by great spiritual teachers like Buddha  on karma and rebirth and Jesus Christ who taught, "You reap what you sow". You can read more on Karma and Lessons and the Golden Rule as shown below.

I hope all world leaders can read this book so that there be no war. We are all spiritual beings on human journey to develop our spirituality and hopefully graduate from this earth school. If we could treat all fellow human beings as family, there will be no war. If your relatives were in the building, would you still drop the bomb on the building? Only love, understanding and empathy can resolve conflict and differences in opinions. Technology should not be used to hurt people. 
  
A friend asked me why I chose to follow Buddha's Teaching. As more people from the western countries recalled their past lives from past life regression and near death experiences, they verified what I read from the Buddhism books that there is a reason to the cause to your current life. It connected the dots to all the knowledge I acquired since young. Thus now I believe in karma and rebirth and there is a path to extinguish suffering. Don't just believe, you can go investigate and check whether it is true. These are the books on reincarnation here.

May there be peace on earth soon.
