It may challenge the ego to the point of resistance. I can't connect Karma with Awareness. They are two separate things for me. And through this powerful energy connect with kindred spirits and souls who celebrate this Truth. To me, these issues of the basics in life are what constitute Karma.
Personal responsibility is Karma.
Your human relationships, your family is Karma. Other times, you expel Karma, dissolving old perceptions, creating space for an emerging new Self. Art is healthy, if not nutritionally vital, for the soul. Art has the potential power to change our perceptions of reality, reality being nothing but perception anyway. Yes, all good and true art will affect the heart.
