Past Causes produces Present Effects...
Bhikkhu Samahita
Friends:
Past life causes makes effects in the present
life!
In the previous life there was doubt, confusion, and delusion, which is
ignorance.
There was kammic accumulation of many
intentions, which is mental construction.
There was attachment to the past life body,
food, and pleasures, which is craving.
There was embracing this & that, delighting in this & that object,
which is clinging.
There was volitions, favourite choices, & firm determinations, which is
becoming...
These 5 things accumulated in the previous kamma-process of becoming therefore
became the conditions for rebirth-linking at birth here in the present life
process...
Here in the present life process, there was rebirth-linking, which is
consciousness.
There was descent into the womb, which is mentality-&-materiality; name-&-form.
There is sensitivity of the eye, ear, nose, tongue, body
& mind, which is the 6 senses.
There is what is seen, heard, smelt, tasted, touched, and thought, which is
contact.
There is what is felt as pleasure, pain or neither pleasure nor pain, which is
feeling...
These five things here in the present rebirth-process of becoming all have
their
conditions in kamma done in the past. Since feeling causes clinging. And since
this
clinging, then causes new becoming resulting in future birth, these 5 things
causes
the conditions for a future life to be deposited... The rebirth round is thus
closed!
Any present
intentional conscious moment, thus creates a future conscious moment!
Ps I 52, Vism 601
