Thanks Lal.
I do not know. I still feel something is not oke, but i do not know i am able to express this. I try.
Two scenario’s:
1. early in the morning i decide that after work i will sunbathe at the beach. After work i go to the beach. In the late afternoon i lie at the beach. I do not smear myself with suncream. The sun is still bright. In the evening i have sunburns all over my body. I have a painful time in the evening.
2. early in the morning i decide that after work i will sunbathe at the beach. After work i go to the beach. In the late afternoon i lie at the beach. I do not smear myself with suncream. A short time after i lie at the beach it becomes clowded. At the evening i have no sunburns at all. I have a good time in the evening.
I make exactly the same decisions and actions but the results are opposite. Al lot of pain versus no pain at all. .
If so, can those results really be seen as due to my own decicions and actions? Is this not important to speak of kamma-vipaka?
That my decisions and actions have results that is sure, but what is not sure is that those results are really due to my decicions and actions.
I belief, then it is also not sure that those results are kamma-vipaka.
Is this wrong?
