I'm not sure I agree. I think way Ra defines it, it's both your own feelings and the other's self involved feelings toward the act.
Quote:34.4 Questioner: Thank you. Would you define karma?
Ra: I am Ra. Our understanding of karma is that which may be called inertia. Those actions which are put into motion will continue using the ways of balancing until such time as the controlling or higher principle which you may liken unto your braking or stopping is invoked. This stoppage of the inertia of action may be called forgiveness. These two concepts are inseparable.
34.5 Questioner: If an entity develops what is called a karma in an incarnation, is there then programming that sometimes occurs so that he will experience catalyst that will enable him to get to a point of forgiveness thereby alleviating the karma?
Ra: I am Ra. This is, in general, correct. However, both self and any involved other-self may, at any time through the process of understanding, acceptance, and forgiveness, ameliorate these patterns. This is true at any point in an incarnative pattern. Thus one who has set in motion an action may forgive itself and never again make that error. This also brakes or stops what you call karma.
This also makes logical sense. Say if Person A mutilates Person B and cuts off B's arms for shits and giggles, logically s*** is gonna happen until Person A AND Person B are cool with how things went down. If Person A forgives himself, but Person B is angry, stuff is gonna happen through B's revenge etc. If Person B forgives Person A, but Person A can't forgive himself, A going to attract catalytic experiences to teach himself self-forgiveness.
