Imperfect Love

An example of imperfect love was discussed with William LePar’s spiritual source, The Council.

Questioner: Let us say I am sitting at home and I am watching the baseball game and my wife decides she wants to go get her hair cut. And I say, "Oh, I really don't want to do that," but I decide because of wanting to try to make an effort to be more spiritual I do what she wants but I am still not 100% happy with the situation. Is that a step forward or is that just sort of rationalizing around it and solving the problem without really improving?

The Council: Do you recall what we have said about perfect and imperfect love? 

Questioner: Yes.

The Council: Very few individuals are capable of perfect love, so the rest must settle for imperfect love, if nothing else. An act such as that, an attitude such as that, carried out with kindness, not having a negative attitude towards the individual because they interrupted your preferred activity, may be considered an imperfect act of love, but nonetheless it IS an act of love. Many times when an individual steps forwards and is responsible for an imperfect act of love, before it is all over with, the attitude has changed and the individual has transformed that into a perfect act of love. Does that answer the question?

Questioner: Yes, I believe it does. And if you have had years and years of not making the effort and you start to make more effort, then that will have a snowball effect and hopefully eliminate all of those negative responses or the karma for those negative responses?

The Council: Haven't we said many times that all karma can be corrected in this lifetime that each of you are experiencing? We will repeat it again. All karma can be corrected, answered for, justified (and when we say "justified" we are saying the correction, the word "justification" we are using it in the sense of the correction for karma), in one lifetime. True karma, whether it is the positive karma or the good karma, or the enslavement-type karma cannot always be corrected one act for another. In fact, if a soul chooses that form of self-restoration, then he only chooses a much harder path, a much more complicated path. Very few will set their aims with that type of situation. So living life with the proper attitude will bring all the opportunities to you in this lifetime to correct all the karma, regardless of how heavy it may be from previous lifetimes or even in many cases the present lifetime. Does that answer the question?

Questioner: Yes, it does. Thank you.

The Council: Each lifetime, the sole purpose is to make amends to yourself. And when we say that what we mean is correcting the harm and the disrespect and the indignities that you have perpetrated on yourself through the acts of self-centeredness and selfishness. You are living this life for one purpose and one purpose only and that is to clean up your house, but in order to do that it is necessary to help others clean up their house while you are working on yours. If you try to clean up your house simply by taking care of yourself, you have lost the game before you started because correcting karma you must interact with an individual or in some cases a number of individuals. Take for instance those of you who have commitments to other individuals. Why does that exist? Is it because one of you might be indebted to the other one karmically, so that with this commitment and the fulfillment of that commitment you are correcting your karma? Therefore, if you want to correct the karma and not add more to what you already carry, it is necessary to be completely faithful to that commitment.

Help from the Heavens

In this very interesting quote from William LePar’s spiritual source, The Council, they give us insight into the working of the spiritual realms and how advanced souls may sacrifice to help another soul advance.

The Council: To answer your question, in all of Creation, in this room, there may be individuals who, for whatever reason, have treaded paths less desirable. They come to a crossroads, to an event, to an experience, and they discover that it is a threshold or a door that can bring them from the dark side to the light side. Maybe this individual had walked, shall we say, a number of very dark passages, comes to the door. For whatever reason, whether clearly thinking the opportunity through or moving on what might be interpreted as an impulse, moving through the door into the light. Let us make one point here. No one moves from darkness to spirituality on pure impulse or emotionalism. When there is such an experience, when one comes to a crossroads where you have the extremes, it is not by happenstance but it is a planned event by the soul. It is quite a drastic change from dark corridors of loneliness and depravity to the Light of God, simply passing through a doorway. Let us add here, all doorways are commitments. The individual makes that choice and passes into the light. That individual, at a soul level, before the material manifestation decided that at a point in time this would transpire. That individual could have made arrangements with other entities to be there in a special position, in a special way, to help insure that that entity stabilizes itself in the light, in other words, becomes more entrenched in spiritual concepts, it is like a helpmate. Some could say that that helpmate is an angelic being. Yes, we would agree, providing you understand the word "angelic" or "angel," a messenger of love. It is quite possible that another human physical being could be of such love that it would act as a great stabilizer, a great encourager, to that individual who has made the drastic change. Do you understand?

Questioner: Yes.

The Council: So, in essence then, that individual, that was present to help the other who made the drastic change, may be there from the heavens. Maybe that soul really didn't need to incarnate. Maybe that soul agreed in a previous lifetime while working with the soul that makes the effort to change, maybe there was an agreement there to come in one last time as a helpmate. Therefore one small item was left unattended to in the previous lifetime for the helper. Therefore a minor necessity to reincarnate. Why would a soul jeopardize themselves like that? Well, very simply put, it is a question of exercising love, exercising love. Not speaking of love, but exercising love. Living it and not just talking it. Certainly that individual who came in to help, that special being, put themselves in great jeopardy because they still must deal with the physical, they still must deal with the weaknesses of the physical. Unusual courage requires unusual spirit, unusual souls.
