Quick question though, how did you`find out` that you have a ton of karma to pay back?
How would I put myself under the guidance of Krishna??????

The law of karma can be said to be the law of love. This is how someone once said it. Oh no. love once again, even here. The soul reaps both good and bad that's arisen in previous lives, we know this. You're not free to move forward until your debts are paid, not to yourself, but to others. Many will disagree with this but it is included. The soul's reason for being is to balance karma. This is a great way to say it as put forth by Elizabeth Clare and Patrica Spadaro.

But don't think this is like good deeds get you into heaven. Deeds by themselves don't.
Thank you very much. I don't believe in a heaven after death, like the one in the bible.. but I believe peace is possible

bhagavad gita 18:65 states
18:65. Think always about Me, love Me, sacrifice yourself
for My sake, seek refuge only in Me — and you will
come to Me! You are dear to Me, and I trust you!

heart is key

and you've come to the conclusion that this is because you've done wrong in the past, to these people specifically, or in general? no doubt you have, as have we all. in physical life i could say that my experience of people is similar. maybe work on increasing your own inner power? if we were clear in our own mind then the activities of others would be irrelevant. we are guilty too of taking offense. we take offense because we have a specific image of ourself as this or that and when its questioned we recoil,,,no image, no recoil. its also our responsibilty to de-clutter our minds...though there could be underlying health issues that could make this trickier. easy for me to be philosophical when its other folks eh. atb

Don't let their looks get you down. Stay on your path and stay with your goals. Work on your self-confidence. Yoga helped me with self-confidence.

I personally find Karma to be active in an unenlightened life, when one is awake the dream is over, karma dissolves away for it has nothing to cling to anymore.

from experience, i find that awakening is not enough. there's plenty of karma that needs to be dissolved. no one can have all karma dissolved in an instant, but one can have a lot dissolved in a shot - just never all. one would probably die instantly if *all* were dissolved suddenly. the physical body wouldn't be able to handle it.
