Kamma Kamma (Part 2) : Lucky ...

Kamma Kamma (Part 2) : Lucky ...


Before everyone gets scared off by my previous blog, 'Kamma Kamma (Part 1) : Oh no!' - http://maitre-light.blogspot.com/2010/04/kamma-kamma-part-1-oh-no.html,

Please wait.


In 'Kamma Kamma Part 1', I was talking about the unpleasant part -

The part which most people find hard to swallow,

And maybe even accept as well.

But rightly so.

Cos in the course of our lives, we would all have done/committed wrong/evil.

But just as I said in "I'm Not Good" - http://maitre-light.blogspot.com/2009/11/im-not-good.html,

"In good there's bad, in bad there's good."

Likewise Kamma.

Kamma is very fair.

In fact, it's the fairest, most unbiased, unprejudiced law of justice in the whole universe.

Why?

Simply because it's Nature's Law.

So now, let's go to the other side - the good/ pleasant side.


Just as I say, when we do things to others, we're doing things to ourselves.

Likewise, when we do things FOR others, we're doing for ourselves.

Everything's the same - just in the reverse order/way -

Meaning : The more good we do, the more good will come to us.

It's that simple.

Just as The Buddha said in Dhammapada verse 2,

"If one speaks or acts with pure mind,

Because of that, Happiness follows one,

Even as one's shadow that never leaves."


So, if you want good things, pleasant things to come to you,

Then do good. Be good.




"Kamma can be changed -

If you've done wrong/evil, dilute it with good.

If you're suffering now, humble yourself down and do more good.

AND, if you're enjoying now, remember to continue to do good."





" ........ the way to goodness is open for ALL people who want to be good,

No matter how badly they have behaved in the past."

- Thanissaro Bhikkhu
