Hello Waisaka 😁! These are things we don’t know. Maybe (Y not) is not at the end of his bhava or he still has several human jati (births) left. I believe that this kind of action will prevent fatal diseases in a future life. Kamma vipāka will give results sooner or later. I think that’s what my teacher meant.
- See the story of Ven Arahant Bākula Mahāthera“Etadaggaṃ bhikkhave mama sāvakānaṃ bhikkhūnaṃ appābādhānaṃ yadidaṃ Bākulo.” “Bhikkhus, among My bhikkhu-disciples who enjoy good health, who are free from disease, Bhikkhu Bākula is the foremost (etadagga).”
- He remained an arahant for 80 years before entering parinibbānna at the age of 160. He said he never used any medicine in his life and he had imperturbable health!! This is an example of a good Kamma Vipāka.
