only_help.pdfOnly We Can Help Ourselves3585 viewsKamma is an interesting subject because it concerns everyone and there are many different aspects of it.

They don't even attempt to put up the least amount of resistance. Since they lack the mindfulness needed to pay attention to the consequences of their thoughts, all their thinking and all they do and say are instances of the kilesas giving them a beating. They surrendered to the power of these ruinous forces such a long time ago that they now lack any motivation to restrain their wayward thoughts...
