【The Varieties of Karma】- Significance of karma that you will experience after you have been reborn

【Karma that you will experience after you have been reborn is the effect of actions which you will experience in the second [next] lifetime. Karma that you will experience at other times is the effect of actions which will ripen in or after the third lifetime.】

Therefore, for karma that you will definitely experience, it is further divided into these three parts: one is the karma that you will experience in current lifetime; the second one is the karma that you will experience in the second lifetime; and then another one is karma that you will experience in or after the third lifetime, karma that you will experience in or after the third lifetime. So then, if we truly exert ourselves in practice, a higher status will very clearly begin from this life. It will get better in the next life and even better in the life after that! This is based on us having been in accordance with the teachings. Therefore, truly, whether you are reciting the Buddha's name, or anything else, in the end, of course you will become a Buddha! Not only will you be reborn in the Pure Land, you will also obtain all sorts of happiness in this life! Of course, all cultivations will be as such. This is not only true for those who recite the Buddha's name, this stands for all [discipline]. This is something we should understand. This is something we should understand.

业果 : 顺生受的意涵

【顺生受者，谓于二世当受其果。顺后受者，谓于三世以后成熟。】

所以我们决定受的当中，也分成功三部分，一个就是现生就受，一个就是第二世受，还有一个呢，第三世以后成熟，第三世以后成熟。那么，如果说我们真正努力修行的话，这个增上生很明白地，这一生就开始，后生还要好，后生更要好！这个就是我们能够如法的。所以的的确确念佛也好，不管做什么也好，最后固然是成佛，然后呢，下一世固然是往生，这一生还得到种种快乐耶！当然，所有的修行都是如此，不仅仅是念佛，广义的，这一点我们要了解，这一点我们要了解。
