Good seeds bear good fruits.
Bad seeds bear bad fruits.
This is the law of Karma Retribution. The law of karma cannot be destroyed. Karmic deeds from a hundred or thousand kalpas, must produce the results. When the conditions are right, the deeds (Causes) done by us and the results (Effects) from the deeds must be encountered by us.
Everyone is affected by the Law of Karma. Inbetween the Cause & Effect is the condition. When the condition is right, the deeds (Cause) done will produce results. (Effects).
因果是不能消灭的。 揭云：（ 假使百千劫,所作业不亡:因缘会逢时, 果报还自受 ). 意识是说: 假若过了白千劫那样久的时间,各人所找造罪业是不会消灭的. 要知道,因与果的中间有个 (缘). 只要因与缘成熟时,果报还是自己要受的. 若问前世因，今生受者是。 若问后世果，今生作者是。
