When people who have caused harm, or even a mixture of harm and good or are just in a grey, questionable zone, die, two things happen:
- their active harm is removed from the world, and thus the world is a little better - although the need to undo the harm done still remains;
- the person concerned has to face the consequences of their good and “bad” deeds, and move on to whatever is next in their spiritual growth, after facing their greatest critic: their Higher Self - which goes well beyond concepts of karma.
Today a notorious neochristian protector of child abusers (The Guardian), member of the current version of the Spanish Inquisition, has (ABC) died (The New Daily), and the above applies to him and the world. We are better off without this incarnation of that soul, and may that soul grow into decency before their next round on this earth - and be kept from access to and the misuse of power in future rounds.
