Meditate on Karmic Result


"Oh good man! Having meditated on the cause of karma, the wise person meditates on the karmic result. There are four kinds of karmic result, namely: 1) black-black karmic result, 2) white-white karmic result, 3) mixed-mixed karmic result, and 4) non-black-non-white-non-black-non-white karmic result.

The black-black karmic result is such that it is defiled at the time of the action and the karmic result, too, is defiled. We say white-white karmic result, which is pure when [the deed is] being enacted, and the karmic result is also pure. We speak of the mixed-mixed karmic result, which is of mixed nature during the enactment of [the deed], and the karmic result, too, is mixed. We say non-black-non-white-non-black-non-white karmic result. This is undefiled karma."
