If it is one of our current challenges in this lifetime to ‘actively’ make peace – inner peace – with partner, spouse, child, employer or with what our body is doing ‘to us’, it does make it easier to simply see all and any as the karmic messengers that have been programmed to pop...
Attempts to connect karma, soul, heart-energy and energy field to heartache, grief, illness, setbacks as well as to ‘lucky’ breaks, good news and momentary lulls in our lives just don’t work. Although the deconstruction of a situation from a spiritual angle is meant to explain differently what needs to be understood - as well...
Remember, we are souls in disguise. We are disguised in our body, in a body suit or, as Alan Watts called it, in our ‘bag of skin’. Remember, too, that though we only have one lifetime to act out, our soul is already loaded down by a heavy string of lives, past incarnations, anchored...
It is through a soulful link to our spirit and through the underlying principle that, though each challenge comes uninvited and is always most inopportune, we need to ‘actively’ accept all our disappointments and setbacks with an open heart.

Ego has little Helpers = Mind, Senses, Thoughts a.k.a. Emotions, Consciousness etc. They are all integrated in the preset configuration of Ego/energy field.
