The Law of Compensation is also known as 'karma'.
For everything that we sow, we shall reap. If I plant corn, I will reap corn. If I plant seeds of dishonesty and mistrust in life, I will reap lies and ill will from everyone around me.
This is an inescapable fact of life. It works both on a natural level and on a vibrational level.
People who are inclined to be stingy and unforgiving in life have a hard time grasping this particular law because it goes against the core feeling that they are losing something every time they give to others. And if they have never experienced the joy of giving unselfishly and with a glad heart to another, they will come to understand why their compensation in life has been less than they would like.
This is the law that will help propel you from where you are to where you want to be and unlike the Law of Increase, it does not require specifically that you give to others but that you understand why giving is so important.
All of these immutable laws are life lessons. Some teach us how, some help us learn to perform a specific action and others guarantee that we are aware of the implications of how they all work together.
These particular laws must be obeyed in order to reap the rewards whether we agree with them or not and certainly whether we fully understand them or not. They will continue to work, on their own, regardless of us.
The purpose of the law of Compensation is to bring to our consciousness the realization of our acts of omission and commission, the duality of our being in both positive and negative polarities. Its main objective for us is to make compensation for the errors and wrongs we have committed and to benefit from the good or benefits which we have provided for the lives of others. Once we have become conscious of these positive or negative attributes of our own lives, the Law of Compensation has been fulfilled. Once the good which we have done has been realized, the law ceases to operate until the next episode.
The Law of Compensation should not be confused with retribution. It is a learning The purpose of the Law of Compensation is not to instigate punishment, worry, strife, loss, or mental suffering, but to reiterate, to bring our thoughts and actions into our conscious mind. It shows us how to stop, reflect, and remember.
POLARITY, or action and reaction, we meet in every part of nature; in darkness and light; in heat and cold; in the ebb and flow of waters; in male and female; in the inspiration and expiration of plants and animals; in the equation of quantity and quality in the fluids of the animal body; in the systole and diastole of the heart; in the undulations of fluids, and of sound; in the centrifugal and centripetal gravity; in electricity, galvanism, and chemical affinity. Super induce magnetism at one end of a needle; the opposite magnetism takes place at the other end. If the south attracts, the north repels. To empty here, you must condense there. And so it goes.
There are no exceptions to the law of compensation. No person or thing can escape the effects of this universal law. Like all of the universal laws, this unseen force is always working whether we are aware of it or not. It is an extension of the law of cause and effect, or, for every action there must be a reaction. With an understanding of this law we can learn to live in peace and harmony, without greed or envy.
When we understand how the law of compensation works, we can use it to our advantage in so many ways. One way the law of compensation works wonderfully is to create abundance. Considering this law works on the principle, for every action there must be a reaction. If we give we must receive. This is true for it is a universal law. What goes around comes around, if we give charity in the form of money or we give our time to help someone, we will be rewarded.
