	Narada - Buddhist Theory of Kamma
		On the effect or how the kamma of their children is determined: the child's kamma is a thing apart of itself – it forms the child's individuality, the sum-total of its merits and demerits accumulated in innumerable past existences.
		A child's past kamma may be compared to the seed: the physical disposition of the mother to the soil; and that of the father to the moisture, which fertilised the soil.
		Kamma determines the realm of rebirth and the state of existence in that realm of all transient being (in the cycle of existences, which have to be traversed till the attainment, at last, of Nibbana).

	Kamma and the Ending of Kamma
		This allowance also opens the possibility for escape from the cycle of kamma altogether by means of the fourth type of kamma: the development of heightened skillfulness through the pursuit of the seven factors of Awakening and the noble eightfold path-and, by extension, all of the Wings to Awakening [§16-17].
		There is kamma to be experienced in hell, kamma to be experienced in the realm of common animals, kamma to be experienced in the realm of the hungry shades, kamma to be experienced in the human world, kamma to be experienced in the heavenly worlds.
		There is kamma that is fl with fl result; kamma that is white with white result; kamma that is fl and white with fl and white result; and kamma that is neither fl nor white with neither fl nor white result, leading to the ending of kamma.

		Only after the results of the kusala kamma that caused birth in heaven is gone and the occasion arises for akusala kamma to bring results, would that person be immediately born in apaya bhumi (hell planes) to receive the results of past akusala kamma.

	6. Kamma
		Kamma is open to the influence of conditioning factors, both in the present as well as the future.
		Kamma demonstrates that each and every one of us is endowed with potential for greater development and it is within our reach to create a better world, full of love and joy, or to destroy it with hatred and war.
		Because, according to the doctrine of kamma, people should be judged by their actions, not by social status, caste, or creed, the teachings on kamma have contributed to the establishment of a universal ethical standard in which moral integrity becomes the norm and the measurement of a person's worth.

	The Law of Kamma
		Kamma is therefore the indispensable conceptive cause of this being.
		Kamma law operates quite automatically and, when the Kamma is powerful, man cannot interfere with its inexorable result though he may desire to do so; but here also right understanding and skilful volition can accomplish much and mould the future.
		As Kamma is mental, so Vipāka too is mental; it is experienced as happiness or bliss, unhappiness or misery according to the nature of the Kamma seed.

	Kamma in Buddhism
		However, if we take mixed kamma as falling under good actions and evil actions, then there are only three kinds of kamma, with the kamma that ends all kamma as the third kind again.

		When someone dies, people murmur, "oh well, his kamma is finished." Moreover, they often say that one dies according to ones merits and kamma, without realizing that what is happening to them now is also according to their good and bad kamma, until they really reach the end of kamma, namely, Nibbana.

	Questions on Kamma
		Kamma is the factor which determines the specific form of rebirth, what kind of a person we are, at the outset of our life, and it is kamma again that determines a good number of the experiences that we undergo in the course of our life.

	1. Understanding the Law of Kamma
		Etymologically, kamma means "work" or "action." But in the context of the Buddha's teaching it is defined more specifically as "action based on intention" or "deeds willfully done." Actions that are without intention are not considered to be kamma in the Buddha's teaching.
		Akusala kamma: kamma which is unskillful, actions which are not good, or are evil; specifically, actions which are born from the akusala mula, the roots of unskillfulness, which are greed, hatred and delusion.
		Kamma which is neither fl nor white, with results neither fl nor white, which leads to the cessation of kamma: This is the intention to transcend the three kinds of kamma mentioned above, or specifically, developing the Seven Enlightenment Factors or the Noble Eightfold Path.

	Kamma Three
		This is not kamma as it is taught in Buddhism.
		Kamma ceases when lust, hatred, and delusion cease, that is, when the mental defilements cease.
		The Buddha used this terms "fl kamma," "white kamma," and "kamma neither-fl-nor-white." This third type of kamma is kamma in the Buddhist sense- kamma according to Buddhist principles.

	karma
		Thus the Buddhist term 'karma' by no means signifies the result of actions, and quite certainly not the fate of man, or perhaps even of whole nations (the so-called wholesale or mass-karma), misconceptions which, through the influence of theosophy, have become widely spread in the West.
		Threefold, however, is the fruit of karma: ripening during the life-time (dittha-dhamma-vedanīya-kamma), ripening in the next birth (upapajja-vedanīya-kamma), ripening in later births (aparāpariya-vedanīya kamma)...." (A.VI.63).
