Karma of Visualizing Outcomes For Another

If we visualize Africa having plentiful food, are we controlling their experience and possibly generating karma, or is this the highest good we can do for them?

Hilarion: Of course you're generating karma, how can you help it? Every time you do anything - cause and effect, it is natural. Is it a karma that you are consciously, willingly taking on? Then go for it. That is the way to understand and work with it. As then otherwise you would just sit around and do nothing. But at the core level of sharing such positive, uplifting energies, you are simply giving more choices. 

It does not mean that those involved with these energies will choose, but the encouragement here that they will choose an energy of cooperation, of love, of planning, of a willingness to share with each other rather than to hoard, or to prevent the energies of planning and awareness for the future. What crops should be planted? How can those be best distributed? How can the energies be best loved and cared for amongst each other? Those are also important visualizations to share. Not just that they be fed, but that they also understand and grow, in other words, the prayer for clarification. Not just for consolation.

But what really makes this energizing, what really helps and what releases some of the karma is when you apply this to yourself if you are sensing the desire to experience some benefit, some assistance for someone else, someone outside of you; then ask. What part in you is starving? What part in you is unwilling necessarily to find clarification, to plan for the future, to balance the energies as appropriate? What part is afraid? What part struggles? What part is greedy? All of the problems that face Africa are a much larger aspect of that which in the microcosm, faces you and can be that which you work with. 

That isn't to say that all you have to do is shift the energies in yourself and they'll change in the world. This would certainly happen if everyone did it. But the key is that as you do this within yourself, more energy is available for more practical solutions. Suddenly, an opportunity will show up in your consciousness that you have previously ignored, an idea of someone else to help specifically, some way to contact someone in this place, some energy that might be shared.
