"People who commit evil actions are unaware of their consequences at the moment of performance. Therefore, they tend to repent on seeing the consequences of what they did. This creates grief. Buddhist quote This does not mean that a man must always suffer the consequences of his deeds, without any hope. If that is the case, there is no benefit in leading a religious life, nor is there any opportunity to work for one's emancipation. In this pair of verses, suffering and happiness in the next world are also indicated." ~The Buddha Technorati Tags: Buddha Buddhist Buddhism Meditation Dharma
