【The Varieties of Karma】 - ethically neutral karma
You might say, "It would seem that there are many instances when I am not thinking (composing with the mind)." What would that be? That is your ethically neutral karma. Where does this ethically neutral karma come from? It is still the causally concordant effect from before. So why are there ethically neutral karmas? This is from the past lives, still from the past lives. There are many people who are foolish and dull. This is because one created this in the causal period and now this is the effect. Or perhaps it could be a residual retribution that has not been exhausted. If you just look at the animals with lower intelligence, river snails, mussels and clams, and also turtles, when they decide to fold [or withdraw], they could sit there for three days, five days, eight years or ten years, and it would be pretty normal. So, what are [being planted] in the causal period? In general, there are many people whom you can't claim that they are not cultivating. They are cultivating. But if you say that they are cultivating, they act in this way. He is quite happy to just sit there and perhaps to sit there dumbly, becoming drowsy. And he would still feel that, "Ah, I have just done a sitting meditation and it was a good session!" He slept. So of course it was good! This type of situation is wrong! I am absolutely not making a joke out of this! I am particularly pointing this out!
