Inquire towards good and bad karma that exists in certain cultural and spiritual beliefs

Many minds might be misunderstood the worldly egoistic belief of good and bad karma that exists in certain culture and spirituality, or religion, is the same as the nature's law of cause and effect.

Under such ignorance, the minds also misunderstood the worldly egoistic belief of reincarnation, is the same as the inevitable selfless impermanent limited and conditional restless changes that are non-self, that exist in all and everyone and everything.

The minds need to know that the belief of good and bad karma that belongs to certain culture and spirituality, or religion, is NOT the nature's law of cause and effect.

The minds need to know that the belief of reincarnation that belongs to certain culture and spirituality, or religion, is NOT the selfless impermanent limited and conditional restless changes that are non-self, that are inevitable, regardless of in the living organisms or in the non-living objects.

Which then allowing the self inquiry to be inquiring towards the truth of the belief of good and bad karma, as well as the belief of reincarnation to be happening.

 

The nature's law of cause and effect is not a 'creation', or an 'idea', or a 'belief, values, and practice'. It is what things are and how things are, as they are, and it is universal, devoid of subjective discrimination, or judgment, or the qualities of good and bad or right and wrong based on all the different kinds of beliefs, values, and practices, that exist under the many different types of names and forms.

Mango seed gives rise to mango tree, mango flower, and mango fruit.

Mango seed doesn't give rise to any other kind of trees, flowers, and fruits, that are not the mango trees, that are not the mango flowers, and that are not the mango fruits.

The mango seed, and all the other kinds of different seeds, are neither good nor bad, neither right nor wrong.

The selfless, impermanent, limited, conditional, and non-self momentary existence of a mango seed has no intention, or 'initial desire', or 'initial downfall', or 'initial sin', to be arising as or to be manifested into a 'mango seed' that gives rise to 'mango tree, mango flower, and mango fruit.'

The mango seed didn't exist until it is being formed or manifested as what it is, selflessly, under the selfless support of the selfless energy and selfless elements, governed by the nature's law of cause and effect.

The manifestation of a mango seed is not due to good, or bad, or neither good nor bad neutral KARMA.

The suns, the planets, the stars, the moons, the atmosphere, the nature, the water, the earth, the air, the heat, or the space, and all and everything that exist, change, decay, and ceased existing, are not because of there is the existence of good, or bad, or neither good nor bad neutral KARMA. All and everything arising and changing and passing away under the influence of the selfless energy and all kinds of selfless elements is not due to good, or bad, or neither good nor bad neutral KARMA. 

The selfless energy and selfless elements don't generate good karma when all and everything are existing because of the selfless support of the selfless energy and elements. Similarly, they don't generate bad karma when all and everything are changing and ceased existing or passing away because being influenced by either the excess or insufficient availability of the selfless energy and elements being what they are, as they are. But, all and everything are being what they are, as they are, under the influence of the nature's law of cause and effect, that is attributeless, that is unconditional and indiscriminate, that is neither good nor bad, neither right nor wrong.

The selfless mango seed gives rise to one particular selfless mango tree, that gives rise to many selfless individual mango flowers, that give rise to many selfless individual mangoes, where the internal genetic condition as well as the external surrounding condition is influencing the entire evolution process from the seed to become a tree that have flowers and fruits, or not, is selfless, impermanent, limited, conditional, and non-self, that doesn't even belong to the seed, or the tree, or the flowers, or the fruits. And, that particular seed, that particular tree, all the different particular flowers, and all the different particular fruits, are having their own particular cause and effect to be arising, changing, decaying, and passing away in certain way or not in certain way.

This particular seed, this particular tree, and all the different individual flowers and fruits of this particular tree deriving from this particular seed, only has a certain limited duration of existence and being what they are, as they are, and they all don't even belong to themselves.

All kinds of different types of seeds being what they are, is fixed. It is what it is. But the evolution or the selfless impermanent changes of all and everyone and everything, are not fixed. It is conditional, depending on what is available or non-available, in NOW.

It is the same as all kinds of names and forms. All are selfless, impermanent, limited, conditional, and non-self.

The existence of the many different varieties of mango seeds, are also neither good nor bad, neither right nor wrong. 

The cause that gives rise to the specific effect, is neither good nor bad, neither right nor wrong.

All kinds of different causes that give rise to their respective effects, are neither good nor bad, neither right nor wrong.

The entire process from the cause evolving or coming into effect, is selfless, impermanent, limited, conditional, and non-self.

There is no existence of any specific permanent independent individual self identity or self existence of an infinite 'I' that exists in any kind of names and forms, to be undergoing the selfless, impermanent, limited, conditional and non-self process of all kinds of different causes and effects.

All and everyone and everything are subject to the nature's law of cause and effect to be evolving in certain way and not in certain way.

All are subject to arising or forming, changing, decaying or aging, and disintegrating, decomposing, or passing away, selflessly, impermanently, limitedly, conditionally, and non-self, that doesn't belong to the names and forms themselves, regardless of all the different qualities of names and forms, regardless of sentient or non-sentient living organisms, or non-living objects.

Meanwhile,

The belief of good and bad karma, is a 'creation', or an 'idea', or a 'belief, values, and practice' that was being created, and is existing under the condition and influence of the subjective discrimination or judgment towards the quality of what is good or bad and what is right or wrong, based on certain worldly egoistic cultural and spiritual, or religious ideas, beliefs, values, desires, visions, aspirations, and practices.

The belief of good and bad karma gives rise to as well as being empowered by the belief of "Ceaseless beginningless and endless reincarnations of a specific permanent independent individual self identity or self existence of an infinite 'I' being reincarnated into ceaseless and countless life existences under different forms transitioning in the different realms or spheres, being powered and determined by the countless and endless good and/or bad KARMA as well as neither good nor bad neutral KARMA in an infinite loop that seems to be endless, that can never come to an end, where all kinds of painful suffering as well as pleasurable enjoyments, or the restless impermanent changes of any particular immortal self identity/existence of an infinite 'I', will be continuously and ceaselessly carrying forward to the endless next and next reincarnations to be exhausting/burning off the endless and boundless KARMA, that is IMPOSSIBLE to be exhausted as it keeps accumulating."

The belief of good and bad karma that leads to ceaseless and countless different reincarnations under different life existences or forms in different realms or spheres, is only limited to names and forms that come with the organs of actions under certain good or bad or neutral intentions that generate endless countless and boundless good and/or bad karma as well as neither good nor bad neutral karma. Where 'liberation' is 'unreachable', or is absolutely not possible no matter what or how.

The direct self realization towards the belief of good and bad karma deriving from self inquiry, will also lead to the direct self realization towards the belief of reincarnation that exists in certain culture and spirituality, or religion. 

The belief of good and bad KARMA, the belief of the endless and ceaseless loop of reincarnation, and the many other kinds of beliefs are existing to be comforting the many confusing innocent minds that are undergoing many different kinds of unnecessary evitable painful suffering inflicted by the selfish greedy prideful possessive ignorant minds functioning under the influence of ignorance, and to be justifying all THAT that are hurtful, destructive, and unreasonable that could be avoided, that don't need to be happening at all, as well as to be justifying many things that the minds don't know and don't understand, in this world of human beings that are full of ignorance and egoism, that doesn't belong to anyone and anything.

"You and your family are good people and don't do anything bad to anyone and have been doing many good things for everyone, but you all are in painful suffering because you are being ill treated and hurt by some others, is because of your past bad KARMA. And you all will be stop suffering and start enjoying all kinds of goodness and happiness in your next life existence."

"All these bad, wrongful, and hurtful people who are selfish, evil, possessive, greedy, discriminating, and violent, who are ill treating and hurting and destroying all and everyone and everything, while they are enjoying many pleasurable enjoyments, is because of their past good karma. And they will suffer in their next life existence."

All these names and forms are neither good nor bad, neither right nor wrong. Because there are many minds are in painful suffering need to be 'comforted' by certain 'justification' to feel better, even if it is not true.

Similarly, the belief and values and practice of good and bad KARMA also gives the minds the justification to be justifying many man made punishable rules and regulations to create the power of control or authorization, to be 'controlling', 'oppressing', 'disciplining', or 'threatening' all and everyone and everything to be and not to be in certain way, in accordance to the desires and don't desires, agreements and disagreements, likes and dislikes of specific individuals or communities under specific belief, values, and practice. Just as the father slap and punch the children, "You are living in my house. You are my children. You must behave in the way that I want you to behave. If you don't obey my rules and my desires, and go against my rules and desires, I will discipline and punish you. That is why I am punishing you. You deserve to be disciplined and punished accordingly, so that you will behave in the way that I want you to behave."

However, it is upmost important for the minds that are seeking liberation from ignorance and suffering, to be performing self inquiry to be inquiring towards the truth of everything.

There is no past or future next life existence. There is only ceaseless selfless impermanent limited and conditional changes in this particular life existence and function of this particular selfless body and mind that are non-self, in NOW.

All kinds of inevitable suffering in this world are inflicted by the minds that are functioning under the influence of ignorance and its by-products, either wittingly or unwittingly, intentionally or unintentionally, in NOW. All the people who are undergoing certain kind of unpleasant, difficult, and painful affair, happening, ill-treatment, bullying, condition, and situation that are inhumane, cruel, hurtful, life threatening, and violent, it is not because they are deserving to be undergoing such painful suffering because of their previous bad karma from their past lives (that are non-existing). All these inhumanity, cruelty, difficulty, desperation, violence, and hurtful life threatening affairs, happenings, ill-treatments, bullying, conditions, and situations don't need to be existing at all, if the minds, of all the different individuals in the different communities, especially the self-claimed, or elected, or appointed leaders and law makers, are free from the influence of ignorance and the by-products of ignorance.

That is why the momentary existence and function of all and everyone and everything in the present moment, is highly precious, even when nothing is perfect, where all and everyone and everything are imperfect. Being alive, to have the mind conscious awareness and the organs of thinking and action, and be able to make good use of this selfless impermanent limited and conditional momentary life existence that is non-self, that doesn't even belong to the body and mind itself, to be doing something beneficial for oneself and others and the world that doesn't belong to anyone and anything, unconditionally and indiscriminately, is the most precious thing, in NOW.

Do not blind-believe, blind-follow, blind-agree/disagree, blind-practice, or blind-propagate anything from anyone. 

Inquire the truth of everything, including all that is here.

Know thyself. Everything is impermanent and selfless. There is no 'I'. There is no 'I am selfless'/'I am not selfless'. There is no 'I am hurt'/'I need to be healed from hurt'. Non-blind believing, non-blind following, non-blind practicing and non-blind propagating, but be open-minded to inquire the truth of everything. Be free. Be peaceful. Be happy.
