【The General Characteristic of Karma】- All sufferings in the sense of painful feelings arise from previously accumulated non-virtuous karma

【All sufferings in the sense of painful feelings— including even the slightest suffering occurring in an arhat's mind-stream—arise from previously accumulated non-virtuous karma. [159] It is impossible for suffering to arise from virtuous karma.】

Needless to say for us ordinary beings, even for arhat, whenever there is any suffering, the characteristic of suffering is a sense of compel, ah, it makes us feel that it is intolerable. Even if you are a noble being in a state of arhat, sorry, the arhat still has "suffering occurring in an arhat's mind-stream." There is still suffering! All the suffering comes from your previous non-virtuous karma. There is no such thing as experiencing suffering from having accumulated virtuous karma. There is absolutely no such thing, absolutely no such thing. All our suffering and happiness are determined by karma. Therefore, everyone! Do not try to take advantage of things. There is no advantage to take. Every little bit of benefit has been the karma created by yourself. As you think of this point, then when you feel like taking advantage of things, you should [instead] quickly strive. As you create a virtuous cause, there will certainly be benefits to that. It is absolutely true!

业果 : 逼迫苦受皆从不善生

【所有逼迫行相苦受，下至罗汉相续之苦，一切皆是从先造集不善而起。从诸善业发生苦受，无有是处。】

不要说我们凡夫，哪怕罗汉，凡是有任何苦，苦的行相是逼迫，唉，教我们受不了的。哪怕你已经证得罗汉果的圣者，对不起，这个罗汉的圣者还有「相续之苦」，还是痛苦的呀！这个所有的痛苦，都是以前你造的不善业。从善业造了以后他感苦，绝没有，绝没有这样的事情，所以我们一切的苦乐都是业来决定的。所以诸位呀！不要贪便宜，没有便宜可贪。你的这个一点点的好处都是你造自己的业，你想到这一点的话，你要想找便宜，赶快努力，你造这个好的因造下去，一定有好处在。千真万确的！
