[Kotyara]

"i wonder if even through a veiled state a person can earnestly strive to release themselves from past life karma through such means as prayers of forgiveness or something."

foregiveness of others. foregiveness of self. true foregiveness releases us from karma.

i visualize each act in need of forgiveness enclosed in a colorful helium balloon and then let it go. it floats gently away.... up into the sky.... going, going... gone.
