A fixture almost as much as the light post he leaned against. Turned out, he wasn’t truly homeless at all, and shared a rather expensive apartment with another career panhandler. When asked about the apparent hypocrisy, he said simply that he rented rather than owned, so he wasn’t really lying. The problem is this individual and his partner help to reinforce the impression that many if not most homeless were not in the dire straits they appear to be in. What is the divine perspective on this type of career?ClosedNicola asked 4 years ago • Karma354 views0 answers0 votesA man was portrayed on a 60 Minutes television episode back in the 1980s, who would dress like a bum and drive to his favorite spot in his own newer car, park the car out of sight, and work a freeway entrance ramp. He was observed by a reporter to leave the spot every couple of hours to make a call at a payphone. He was approached and asked who he was calling. Turned out it was his stockbroker. He confessed he made approximately $60,000 a year panhandling (in the 1980s when $60,000 was an above-average income) and had a very successful investment portfolio. When challenged, he failed to see any moral dilemma in what he was doing, but in managing a successful stock portfolio, he was clearly capable of performing successfully in a more traditional occupation. What are the karmic implications of that man’s occupational choice?ClosedNicola asked 4 years ago • Karma359 views0 answers0 votesThose wanting to be good samaritans would decline if they knew they were simply fattening someone’s portfolio and of course most panhandlers are truly homeless and in need of assistance. Yet the desire not to be taken advantage of is strong in most people and presents a genuine moral conflict for many. What advice can Creator give to those wanting to help the truly needy? When one gives to a beggar, does the REAL condition of the recipient have any bearing on the good karma earned by the donor?ClosedNicola asked 4 years ago • Karma338 views0 answers0 votesA worker in a large city can run an obstacle course of multiple panhandlers twice a day going to and from the office. Many times both people will pretend not to recognize the other, which can reach heights of absurdity as this can go on for years. The career panhandlers are daily intruding on the privacy of the commuters who simply want to be left alone in peace and quiet but are constantly exposed to this twice a day for years. As no one with an average salary can possibly give to everyone asking them daily for handouts, what are the karmic implications of ignoring such recurring pleas? How can Creator help the simple commuter make a moral choice?ClosedNicola asked 4 years ago • Karma348 views0 answers0 votes“Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. Teach him how to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime.” When it comes to the homeless, are we collectively failing to teach them how to fish?ClosedNicola asked 4 years ago • Karma334 views0 answers0 votesA century ago, it was mostly charities and churches that were looked to to provide help for those in need. Today many look to governments to provide help for the needy and many are failing to do an adequate job. Was having the governments step in to help a mixed motive undertaking? Was the goal to create further distance between the donors and the recipients?ClosedNicola asked 4 years ago • Karma306 views0 answers0 votesWhat is Creator’s perspective on the welfare state?ClosedNicola asked 4 years ago • Karma409 views0 answers0 votesHow can prayer and the Lightworker Healing Protocol help to someday fully resolve the problem of homelessness?ClosedNicola asked 4 years ago • Karma344 views0 answers0 votesIs the golden rule, “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you,” a good rule of thumb for avoiding everyday negative karmic entanglements, and maximizing positive ones?ClosedNicola asked 4 years ago • Karma320 views0 answers0 votesAccording to the Bible, Christ said: “I say to you that whoever looks at a woman to lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart” (Matthew: 5-28). Can Creator share if and how we can actually create karmic entanglements with our unacted upon thoughts? Are such thoughts a kind of “micro-curse” we’re employing and do they add up over time? How much do we need to worry about thought plane hygiene?ClosedNicola asked 4 years ago • Karma351 views0 answers0 votesWe know acting on a temptation can create karma.

The site states there is a danger of becoming overwhelmed with these emotions, and calls this “empathy overload.” There is the condition of being an “empath,” people who feel the emotions of people around them to such an extent that they have difficulty shutting them out, or dealing with them effectively. Many such people end up isolating themselves in order to avoid this kind of experience. Christ appeared to have been an “empath,” but with a sense of control and balance that eludes others with this ability. Can Creator share with us the Divine strategy for achieving such mastery?”ClosedNicola asked 4 years ago • Metaphysics530 views0 answers0 votes
