What is karma? How does it work, and can we work with it? Many think that karma is a cosmic form of punishment founded on a simplistic eye-for-an-eye morality. Multifaceted as the psyche itself, karma is both a web of self-related psychic forces -- the fabric of our veil of individuality -- and the guiding hand that provides the lessons pointing the way beyond the illusion that binds us to a self that suffers. Charles Breaux demonstrates the dynamics of karma in many case studies. Included are past life readings demonstrating the myriad ways behavioral and psychological aberrations are developed and carried over from life to life. Then, examples of past life therapy sessions and day-to-day “be here now” methods for unraveling one’s web of karma are also presented.

Disappointing compared to his early work Journey into Consciousness

Reviewed in the United States on May 9, 2012

Verified Purchase

Because the author's previous book, Journey into Consciousness: The Chakras, Tantra and Jungian Psychology, is so impressively written, I bought this book, wondering what it might be like in the realm of "applied spirituality," i.e. applying his meditative insights to past life reading. Note that what he does is not "past life regression" done in the form of hypnotherapy, as is commonly known today. The author simply meets his client, obtain some very basic information about him or her (such as age, occupation, etc.), observe his/her demeanor, and then give a super lengthy reading about this particular person's past lives. This book documents a series of such readings. I find all of them incredulous, but none of them helpful. I mean, you sit down in front of a total stranger, and he tells you that in your past life, you were this and that; and then in another past life, you were this and that... blah blah blah and on and on and on. What do you do? You believe in him? You listen to the incredible stories but, alas, they are really just "stories" to me. How do I establish any validity to them? What do I get out of this? So what if I was an Egyptian princess once and a circus magician another time? Nice stories, very captivating, but how does knowing these information enlighten and guide me in any ways?

My biggest problem with this book is that the author doesn't delve deeper into the significance of doing past life readings. At the end, he gave some background info on what karma is, and some New Age beliefs, but nothing deep or insightful.

I'd recommend his earlier book "Journey into Consciousness" wholeheartedly. But this book is a huge, total disappointment to me.

Intriguing chronicling of clients' past lives

Reviewed in the United States on April 4, 2014

I have read all of Breaux's published works. Having been brought up Christian, I find his writings especially liberating and enlightening. Most religions, including traditional forms of Buddhism, are mired in fundamentalism. Breaux does a brilliant job of extracting the essence of Tantric Buddhism ("The Tantric Path") and the wisdom teachings of Jesus ("The Quantum Gospel") and conveying them in the context of contemporary psychology and science.

Breaux has taught psychic awareness and spiritual healing and worked with clients for some 45 years and writes from personal experience of mystical dimensions of consciousness. His view of our human condition and quest for spiritual transformation is down to earth and focused on a practical application. His writing, though somewhat scholarly and sourced from eclectic bibliographies, is very accessible, presenting complex philosophical concepts concisely.

His "The Way of Karma" is the best I've seen on karma and how knowledge of it can best be used in our day-to-day life. "Hot Tamale Baby" is a good read chronicling the adventures of a modern Tantric yogi at play in the mundane reality of the west coast Cajun dance and music scene. I highly recommend all of his books.

Understanding the process of Karma

Reviewed in the United States on March 11, 2013

Recently while staying with a friend, I picked up Karma to read in our quiet times. I found it fascinating. The progression of the lives of the subjects clearly demonstrates how karma is played out. Breaux's explanation of the process is concise but sufficient. I disagree with the reader who must need what is obvious from the readings, spelled out in detail. I expect that I will mull over the book's message for years.

Five stars for me

Reviewed in the United States on March 8, 2013

Contrary to the review called "Disappointing compared to his early work Journey into Consciousness" I found The Way of Karma most helpful in understanding how mental and emotional habits create the `karma' that is carried over into future lives. His readings clearly show how we develop these patterns and how enlightening it is to see where these patterns originated. The second part of the book showing how to work with karma is the most insightful information about karma that I have ever come across. I couldn't disagree more with the previously stated review...

Eye opening and thought provoking

Reviewed in the United States on July 15, 2014

I first purchased and read this book ten years ago, and the importance of it has stuck with me. For me this book was a wonderful introduction to Karma and how it plays out over time. I highly suggest this book for those wanting a clearer understanding of Karma and wanting to reconcile of karma patterns.
