【Cultivating Ethical Behaviour】- King Suradatta killed Supuspacandra (part 1)

【This being so, it is proven both that you can completely eradicate sins and that karma certainly has effects.】

Not only can we completely eradicate the sin, but from another point of view, we can also understand that any karma will certainly bear fruit, at least in form. There is this one particular point that needs to be explained next. This point is very important!

【It is not definite that some particular persons can eliminate their karma. The Buddha spoke of this in the King of Concentrations Sutra. King Suradatta killed Supuspacandra and felt contrite about it. He built a stupa and made very extensive offerings. Three times each day he would confess his sins. He did this for nine hundred and fifty billion years. Even though he maintained his ethical discipline correctly
in that way, upon his death he was reborn in. Unrelenting Hell. For ten or twenty billion eons he experienced limitless sufferings—having his eyes squeezed out and so forth.】

Earlier, it told us before that we can eliminate [the sinful karma] completely. But here it says that it is not definite! Why is that? The persons whom you committed the action against. This then cites from the sutra, it says that there was such a person, King Suradatta who killed Supuspacandra. Why is this so? Supuspacandra was a Bodhisattva. After killing him, the King Sutradatta felt contrite. After that, he built a stupa and confessed his sins. It is incredible! According to the confession described here, he should have had all four powers present. He had done it for so long, "nine hundred and fifty billion years." And he "made very extensive offerings." He did it three times each day and maintained his ethical disciplines correctly. But upon his death, he was still reborn in Unrelenting Hell. The duration was that long. And after he came out, he had to forbear "having his eyes squeezed out and so forth."

业果 : 勇授大王杀华月严-1

【由是则成，最极拔除诸恶根本，亦非诸业全无果报。”】

不但是恶的我们彻底净除，但是反过来也了解，说这个业一定要感果的，至少还有这个形相。那么下面有一点特别说明一下，这一点非常重要！

【补特伽罗差别一类，不决定者。《三摩地王经》说：“勇授大王，杀华月严，遂起追悔，为建塔庙。经九十五俱胝千岁，广兴供养，一日三时，悔除罪恶，善护尸罗，然寿没后，生无间中，经六十二阿庾他俱胝劫，受盲目等无边众苦。”】

欸！前面告诉我们可以永尽的，这个地方却还有不一定的哟！什么呢？补特伽罗—说你造的对象。引经上面，说这么一个人哪，勇授大王杀了一个华月严，为什么？华月严是个菩萨，他把他杀了以后就后悔了，然后呢为他建塔庙，然后去忏悔。喔唷，不得了哦！照前面所说的这个忏悔的话，他四力应该都有了。经这么长，“九十五俱胝千岁”，而且“广兴供养”，而且一天三时地悔除罪过，而且善护尸罗，但是死了以后还生到无间当中，生到阿鼻地狱。时间经过这么长，出来了以后，“受盲目等无边众苦”。
