Angelique,

First a bit of background, to provide context for my response. I have
practiced Yoga for over 30 years and taught for over 20 years. I have
had Kundalini activity for about 20 years, initially mild, but now
medium (relative to other members' reports on this list). However, none
of the latent natural powers have yet been activated, as I have
mentioned previously. In particular, I cannot perceive anything beyond
the five senses, such as auras, prana, nadis, chakras, kundalini, higher
bodies, karma, dharma, etc. Therefore I do not have the advantages that
you clearly possess in this respect.

In physics everything is energy. Similarly in Unix everything is a
file. This is fine at the abstract level. However, a chair is clearly
different to electricity, even though they are both types of energy in
physics. Also, a printer is clearly different to a keyboard, even
though they are both types of files in Unix.

In computer system development there are progressive phases like
Requirements, Specification, Design, Implementation, and Testing. At
the abstract level one single requirement may give rise incrementally to
several aspects of spec/des/imp/test. Therefore although everything may
be regarded as energy, that does not help us at the practical level.

In the realm of Kundalini, which the Upanishads state covers the three
worlds (waking, dreaming, sleeping) and beyond, everything is also
energy. Some people use the term "vibration" in an equivalent sense.
Therefore auras, prana, nadis, chakras, kundalini, higher bodies, karma,
and dharma can also be regarded as energy. However, on a practical
level they are different and have different properties.

Karma is probably like an axiom in mathematics in the sense that there
is no further analysis required -- it is a fundamental law of the
universe. It does not require justification or elaboration. It is "The
Law". Karma is a database of actions/reactions that is held in the
higher bodies. Note that a database is static not active. In
particular it does not flow.

I don't know about the low level details of karma such as how/why/where
it is stored. I also don't know about the resolution/releasing of
karma, nor the mechanisms or procedures involved.

When suitable circumstances become available then various actions
performed by an individual are appropriately resolved with respect to
the database of karmas. Old karmas may be "written off" partially or
completely, and new karmas may be created. These events are all stored
as records in the karma database. The aim of Karma Yoga is to reduce
the number of records, both good and bad, in the database, in order to
achieve liberation, Moksha, Nirvana, Samadhi, etc.

I have previously posted two poems (translated from Hindi) regarding the
workings of Karma.

Energy healers work on various types of Prana/Chi. Not (necessarily) on
karma. The activities that you describe may be working on Prana/Chi
(which are flowing types of energy) rather than karma (which is more
like a static database). High Masters can take on the responsibilities
of someone else's karma. Grand Master Swami Dev Murti Ji states that he
has the techniques to help "burn" your karma. It is a painful procedure
that I have personally experienced.

I have explained my understanding of karma, but since I am not a Master,
I am open to other unified theories, such as regarding karma as a type
of energy. [If you are aware of the concepts of unification and
polymorphism in mathematical type theory then that is quite close in
this instance.]

In conclusion, I think the various aspects such as auras, prana, nadis,
chakras, kundalini, higher bodies, karma, dharma, etc, etc should be
distinguished in their various attributes and properties even though
they may all be different types of energy.

Bhavin.
