Pitfalls of Wrong Understanding of Karma
[1] When something bad happens to you,
you might wallow in misery,
resigned that it’s your inescapable bad Karma.
[2] When something bad happens to others,
you might sigh that it’s just their bad Karma,
and do nothing to help.
[3] When something good happens to you,
you might become complacent,
thinking your good Karma will last.
[4] When something good happens to others,
you might become jealous
that they have better Karma.
Benefits of Right Understanding of Karma
[1] When something bad happens to you,
you have an open attitude to make the best of it,
and better your Karma.
[2] When something bad happens to others,
you help because they might have
the good Karma to be helped by you.
[3] When something good happens to you,
you cherish it because it might not last,
and remind yourself to do more good.
[4] When something good happens to others,
you rejoice in their meritorious virtues
and encourage them to do more good.
As Karma is Anicca (impermanent)
and Anatta (non-self),
not realising this is Dukkha (suffering).Stonepeace
