Only living with pure motives will destroy our karma

Only living with pure motives will destroy our karma and expand our consciousness. We have no way of knowing what our specific karmic debts are. There is no computer that will show us the obnoxious things we did in the past. Only in the Akashic Records does this exist, and we do not have access to them. Because we cannot know what we did and do not need to know, we must increase our givingness and service. If we increase in Beauty, Goodness, Truth, Joy and Freedom, suddenly one day we will receive a letter from the bank of life that says our mortgage has been paid off.

If we want to know what bad karma is in general, we have only to visit an asylum or hospital. A visit to an asylum can make you laugh, it can make you depressed, or it can make you cry. What did such people do in the past that they are paying for now by being mentally ill? A visit to an asylum tells you that what you sow, you will reap.

Only the way of pure motive will destroy our karma and pay our debts. Only if we learn to live for others will we be able to build a strong foundation both in this life and in the life to come.
