Murder - perhaps the consequence of negative thoughts, feelings and desires

10/15/2025

Suppose that you despise someone so much that you often think how it would suit you if they were to disappear for good. Obviously, you would not go so far as to kill that person, as murder is not undertaken lightly, it would be risky. But you think about it, you wish them dead. Well, you should know that perhaps you will be responsible for the death of someone else in the world. Yes, because your thoughts, feelings and desires travel, and will influence people in some faraway place, who are in the same frame of mind and would also like to rid themselves of an enemy. If their desire for revenge is stronger than yours, or if they lack the willpower to resist their criminal instincts, one day they may commit murder, driven by a sudden impulse or swept up by a current they cannot explain. You will never hear of what happened, of course, but in fact you will also be to blame. When you pass on to the next world, you should be aware that you will be shown the consequences of your negative thoughts, feelings and wishes, and you will be horrified to see all the damage you have caused.*
