【The Varieties of Karma】-  the motivation is very important

What would be another scenario? Perhaps you could have a different set of thoughts.  At this time, in your thoughts, you may not be focused on accomplishing generosity.  Perhaps you have a different thought, one that is measurable by the worldly standard.  This is the time when you might be thinking that for this person, if you use a different method to exhort him, perhaps you can allow him to derive some benefit from it.  Then if you choose not to give, it would be correct [too]!  In brief, your motivation is very important!  Therefore, remember this?  For karma, there are four general characteristics.  The first one is the certainty of karma.  The second one is the magnification of karma.  Remember that?  So then what is this karma?  Karma that is intention and karma that is the intended action, isn't it right?  It is how your contemplative mind composes (or forms thoughts) and the subsequent concordant physical and verbal actions.  When you are thinking in your mind that you wish to help him, upon thinking that you wish to help him, it would be right if you give and also right if you do notgive.  On the contrary, if you go by your own ways and use the reasoning of the mundane world, then this becomes entirely something else.  No matter how many excuses you can find for yourself.

业果 : 动机很重要

是另外一个情况呢?也许你另外一种情况,那个时候,你的起心动念,着眼不在那个布施上面,也许你在另外一个概念上面—世间的量则。那个时候你想,他这个人,假定说你用另外一种方式策励他去的话,也可以让他至少能够有一个什么的好处。那个时候,你不布施,对!总之你的心的动机很重要哦!所以记得吧?这个业一共有四个条件,第一个,业来决定一切,第二个,业的增长广大,记得不记得?然后这个业是什么,思、思已业,对不对?思心所相应,然后呢相应的身口所起的。当你心里面想着,你为了利益他,你为了利益他,送他也对,不送他也对;反过来,你拿你的心情去想,以世间的量则去想的话,那就另外一回事情,不管你找多少的藉口。
