【 The Varieties of Karma 业果】Little sickness to exchange major suffering 小病换大苦
【The Varieties of Karma】- Little sickness to exchange major suffering
There may be many who have practiced, but they do not necessarily feel that things are going their way! This is a concept that we should be very clear with. For example, we can take our senior abbot here as the primary example. Ah, after he had begun to practice, why is it that he is often sick? That is because he had created all sorts of virtuous karma, and he is experiencing it now. He would have, since he had done a great non-virtuous deed in the past, he would have needed to go to hell. He might have needed to become an animal life after life, to be killed and eaten. Yet, in this life, he just got a little sickness and this exhausted [the karma]. This is very obvious.There are far too many cases like this. Therefore, this concept, we must equally understand it very clearly. The more we understand it clearly, the more it will become the greatest encouragement to ourselves. Then when youwalk on the path, you will feel very joyful. The more you walk on the path, the happier you become.

业果 : 小病换大苦
乃至于有很多人虽然修行了,但是好像他感到的不一定如意吧!这个概念我们要很清楚。比如以我们这里的老和尚例子为主,欸,他就修行了以后,怎么老是生病啊?那个就是他造了种种的善业了,现生受;他本来要,造大恶业啊,要下地狱乃至于旁生当中,生生世世被人家杀、吃、还哪,这一世一点小病就解决了。这个非常明显的,有太多这种例子,所以对于这个概念,我们一定还同样地要对它认识得很清楚。你认识得很清楚,对我们是一个绝大的鼓励,然后呢你走起来觉得非常欢乐,越走越高兴,越走越快乐。
