Why Disabled People

So I've always suspected it but now it's been confirmed that I do indeed have a learning disability and it seems to be the same kind of learning disability as my mother so I most likely inherited it from her. Still I wonder why me? Though I believe in the possibility of reincarnation I don't exactly believe in karma. I just don't see much evidence for it. Still Why is it that people have disabilities. Sure there is genetics but still I question why.
 
GalaxyDreamer9,

This is my understanding or opinion about karma. The evidence of karma is everywhere if you understand how it works. Basically, it's the law of physics in motion. For every action there is an opposite and equal rection. This can be by thought, word, deed, emotion and action. However, it's the intent behind the action that causes karma. This can be negative or positive in both action and outcome. This is built into the natural laws of the cosmos in the lower worlds of duality. However, the whole purpose of karma is not about punishment or reward as most think but as a learning tool for the soul to learn how to master and handle its reality thru trial and error. For soul is here so that it may know itself by its own experience.

So before incarnating here we plan out what we want and need to experience while here. This occurs on the casual or soul plane which is beyond time, space and matter. Here soul views and understands time not as linear but as a singularity as all possible outcomes and realities exist all at the same time. The karmic action is storage in the soul body. When we decide to incarnate those karmic actions slowly release themselves in the new life and personality. People with disability choose on a soul level to take on the challenge by working off large amounts of karma all at once rather than over many lifetimes. This allows the soul to transform and change inwardly through the limitations of the physical body. This not only affects them but those that they have a relationship with be it family, partner, spouse, friends and even the general society.

At some point we all have experience this in our past life's or perhaps in a future one if needed. Souls that take on any form of disabilities be it mental, physical or emotional are usually either at a mature or old soul stage of spiritual evolution. Anyway, this is just my opinion and observation on the subject.

Love and peace.

I believe that, before birth and with guidance, each one of us freely chose the life and the challenges that we are individually experiencing now. Each one made his choice believing that it is the best for his individual growth as non-physical entity, and that he'll be able to handle it successfully.

So, when I face a challenge, I remind myself that that wasn't imposed on me, that that was foreseen to happen, and that it is only up to me to find and make the right choices, that I am able to do it.

I believe that there is no karma with the meaning that what I did in other lives causes situations in my current life. There are connections, but in the sense that before birth I analyzed with my guides where I am with my development and decided on the life to choose.

Surely, part of my quest is to intuitively identify the meaning of each one of my experiences (successes and challenges), and to accordingly make my choices in the present. The only support I have, in this quest, is my inner source of knowledge and guidance. I believe that the physical reality that I individually experience is determined by my individual beliefs, expectations, and focus, which attract and associate with situations that agree with them, and which affect my perceptions of this physical reality.

I hope that what I wrote might help others too.
 
I've read some about this stuff, but still often find it hard to believe in karma. I get that energy just changes from one form to the other and for ever action there's an opposite and equal reaction, but I just don't see people getting what they deserve rather good or bad. And trying not to think too much about finding out I have a learning disability after all as it just gets me down.
 
I do believe it's possible to overcome the sense of affliction.


That no matter your circumstance, you can be happy and you can shine.


It's good that you're asking questions. There will be opportunities to recognize the things that are not healthy in your life, and there will be opportunities to move in the desired direction.

Learning to recognize those opportunities is one of the greatest hurdles we face. And we all face them.

Life would be boring without obstacles, challenges, and different personalities. Deal with those the way you want. You can overcome disadvantages, create new ones, or lay down with them in pity, whatever you choose is your choice. I have lived long enough to observe that absolutely no one escapes from 'troubles' somewhere in life.
 
I have synesthesia, and it's because my brain is wired differently (spatial, days of the week are colored and numbers have personalities if you're wondering).

I don't think things like dyslexia is a disability, however. It makes reading harder, but one retains verbal information easily and more accessible then most reading. My husband has it and he can remember conversations from 20 years ago, or something he learned at 5 he can still repeat the instructions. It is simply a different way to process information.
 
Oh I forgot to add, I don't think my synesthesia is a disability, it's just weird.

But I can remember numbers because I can tell you the **** story they created.

I agree, the so-called disabilities give space to other abilities. My best friend has a strong form of dyslexia, and I gave up correcting her. I was her editor when she wanted to publish a novel. It took us a lot of time to mold her imagination and story telling qualities into a document, ready to send out to publishers. And you know what? She did it. She managed to get her book published.
She had an iron discipline to keep on going and going. I learned a lot from her. Her book was her proof to the world that she wasn't mentally retarded (as was assumed when she was a little girl), just dyslexia. She is great at building up characters, storylines, and imaginary worlds.
She lacked knowledge of grammar and lexicon. But she had me, a former language teacher. I admired her and at the same time, I could laugh at her weird sentences. Often the product of overcompensation. She tried too hard. I gave back a sentence and asked her to rephrase it in her own words and most of the time when she just spoke the words, there was the perfect sentence.

I also have to mention that she has always been a natural astral traveler since childhood. While we were working on her book, she started astral traveling to the world of her imagination. She began interviewing the characters from her book. These experiences gave depth and more logic to the stories. Please don't ask me how these things work.

Later in time, she finished a degree in web design. She is great at coding.

Conclusion: don't lament all the things you can't do, but discover the other possibilities within you that make you special.

Edit: My dyslexic friend has a phenomenal memory. I often joke that she is my extended memory.
 
Just talked to the Dr that evaluated me. I asked her how severe of a disability I have. From what she said it sounds like it isn't that severe. She says I'm able to function well and my intelligence is average. Says I'm more slow to remember things that don't interest me but I'm still able to process the information. She says that while I'm slow on some things I still do well it just might take me a little more time. She also said anxiety and constant worrying about what others think and stuff might be slowing me down and making things harder for me.
 
According to my hypotheses about reality, disabilities of all kinds are caused by an incorrect focus on the present. In the autism cases that exhibit unusual good memory but difficulties of expression, the focus is offset toward the historical past. In cases of sensory disability, the focus of one of the senses is offset from the present.

I believe that a way to improve in such situations is to refocus your attention on your natural breath, to re-synchronize your psychological rhythms with your inner rhythms, through your natural breath rhythm. This isn't about conventional meditation.

Usually, people think in terms of breath in and breath out, as in perceive and respond to that. I believe that the opposite is the natural way: breath out and breath in, as in create and perceive the result.
 
I'm not so sure what I have is a lack of focus of some sort though I do find it hard to be in the present moment because I easily get bored.
 
In my post above, by "focus" I don't mean "conscious attention" of the physical awake being, but the focus of the multidimensional personality that creates and perceives the physical reality hyperspace, focus defined by its coordinates: 3D-space, bidirectional time, probable reality.
 
To add to baro-sans comments on the breath, which may be better suited for a different thread/philosophical discussion, though I understand the relevance and how it relates to the OP:

I wanted to relay that I have been experimenting with breath in recent days and have noticed something very interesting. When I place awareness on my breath in every day activity I am able to see how the length of my breath is reflected with the world around me.

Most of us moving about in the business of today don't realize we have the capacity for deeper and richer breath. Our default, typically, is unconscious and suspended in a more alert/fight or flight state. It's called the sympathetic nervous system.

In the sympathetic system, we are typically geared towards reaction and narrowing our experience from a more ego-centric view.
The parasympathetic nervous system, PNS, is considered the opposite. They call it the, "Rest and digest" state.

By trying to bring this extra length and depth to my inhalations and exhalations(in "day-to-day activity") I perceive the world around me with a more open and creative, optimistic and even empathetic view. I seem not to react as much to another's disturbances, and while it still may be considered Ego- it doesn't feel as selfish. In other words, I don't take what is presented in a manner that means I get defensive, offended, irritable, depressed, etc.

It's a practice, I'm by no means saying I have it figured out. But I am stating my observations. It's not such a forceful breath either, its just a little extra than what I'm used to- realizing I have all this extra space in my body for deeper and richer breath.

There seems to be an immediate link to the quality of breath and quality of life experienced. A link between Matter and Spirit- seen and unseen.
 
When it comes to the whole karma thing it is a deception that it is meant to trap souls into greater hardship in an endless loop of reincarnation for which without free will there is no escape as the imagined debts can never be paid nor the tests passed etc. As for differences of mind not everyone is the same as souls don't come from off an assembly line as it comes down to how souls normalize to a given reality/world. Souls that are fully normalized to this reality that think with a very similar or the same mind are neurotypical while everyone else is very likely a soul that hasn't normalized to this yet having come from somewhere else where they are still functioning from a different mental nature than what is commonly expected.
 
Not entirely sure about having past lives in other worlds and stuff. I could of but not entirely certain. Can't really remember and honestly don't really care to remember.
