Master Huijing’s Short Dharma Teachings about Deep Belief in Cause and Effect

深信因果

A Gatha about cause and effect - Even though hundreds and thousands of eons have elapsed, the karma created is not eliminated. Once it encounters the appropriate causal conditions, one must eventually bear the karmic retribution.

This means that the wholesome and unwholesome wave frequencies emitted from our behavior (in body, mouth and mind) will not vanish. When they come across the necessary causal conditions, the effect will be produced. The question is, when will it come? This is uncertain. In this way the karmic retribution of cause and effect goes through the three periods of time - past, present and future.

有一首因果偈說:「假使百千劫,所作業不亡;因緣會遇時,果報還自受。」

意思是說,我們身口意的行為所散發出去的善、惡波率是不會消失的,因緣會遇的時候,就會產生果報。至於緣什麼時候會到呢?那是不一定的,所以因果的報應是貫通過去、現在、未來的。
