Bhagavai 7:3:86-90
-: 557 :
experiencing of karma in the future? Gautama! that which will be experienced in the future will be karma, that which will fall away in the future will be non-karma. It is for this reason, O Gautama! that it has been said that the experiencing of karma in the future will not be the same as the falling away of karma ..... up to will not be the
same as the experiencing of karma in the future. 7.87 evam neraiyā vi jāva vemāniyā.
The same description holds good for the infernals and (for all dandakas
soul groups) ...... up to the Empyrean gods. 7.88 se nūņam bhamte! je vedaņāsamae se nijjarāsamae? je nijjarāsamae se
vedanāsamae? no inatthe samatthe. Is the samaya (indivisible time-unit), O Lord! of experiencing of karma the same as the samaya of falling away of karma? Is the samaya of falling away of karma the same as the time-unit of experiencing of karma?
No, this is not possible. 7.89 se kenatthenam bhamte! evam vuccai-je vedanāsamae na se nijjarāsumue?
je nijjarāsamae na se vedaņāsamae? goyamā! jam samayam vedemti no tam samayam nijjaremti, jam samayam nijjaremti no tum samayam vedemti-annammi samae vedemti, annummi samae nijjaremti. anne se vedaņāsamasae, anne se nijjarāsamae. se tenatthenam jāva na se vedaņāsamae, na se nijjarāsamae. For what reason has it been said, O Lord! that that which is the samaya of experiencing karma is not the same as the samaya of the falling away of karma, that which is the samaya of falling away of karma is not the same as the samaya of experiencing of karma? Gautama! at the samaya when the souls undergo the experience of karma, the falling away of karma does not take place; at the samaya when the falling away of karma takes place, they do nto undergo the experience of karma. The souls experience the karma at the samaya that is different from the samaya when the falling away of karma takes place; the falling away of karma takes place at the samaya that is different from the samaya when the souls undergo experience of karma. The samaya of experiencing karma is different from the samaya of falling away of karma. For this reason it has been said that that which is the samaya of experiencing karma is not the same as the samaya of falling away of karma that which is the samaya of falling away of
karma is not the samaya of experiencing karma. 7.90 neraiyānam bhamte! je vedaņāsamae se nijjarāsamae ? je nijjarāsamae se
vedanāsamae?
