D03.4(A)-Buddhism for Beginners, Karmic Effects (DISCOURSE ONLY)

Facilitator
Zhaxi Zhuoma
Category:
Auditing, Buddhist Studies, Discourses-HHDCBIII, Seminary

This is the second part of a 1995 discourse from Taiwan on “The Never Erring Principle of Receiving the Effects of the Causes You Plant” that states the principle that you should be concerned about the causes you plant, not the effects.

The video is from a reading of a preliminary translation of this discourse by Zhaxi Zhuoma Rinpoche at a Lemonade Sangha class given on January 30, 2022.

This free course does not include any assignments, quizzes, supplemental materials, or group discussions that you can find when the full course is offered in D03.4.

Prior to viewing this course, you are required to listen to the caveats provided in “PRELIMINARY STEPS” of Section 1 of the curriculum, which is a requirement for all preliminary translations of the Buddha Master’s teachings and complete “D01(A)-The Supreme and Magnificent Dharma”.

General reference materials on Buddhism including common terms and a brief “Glossary” are also included at the end of the lessons for all beginning level courses.

Preliminary Steps

Listen to a reading of a preliminary translation of the Dharma Discourse "Karmic Effects.”

Merit

Reference

Our school offers an introduction to the Practices and Blessings Tradition of Mahayana Buddhism. We offer certain practices that can enable you to become enlightened in this lifetime if followed precisely. This is possible with the blessings of the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas and by our cultivation of morality, meditation, and wisdom. We recognize and praise these holy beings by our chants and develop our wisdom through learning the Dharma. We also recognize that, at present, we only have preliminary translations that may contain errors, but that still offer us guidance on our path.
: Part of our cultivation is to share any merit we receive with all living beings (not just humans). You will understand these concepts and principles as you study these courses.
It is probably because you did not click the “Completed” button at the end of the task. The other reason is that it may be for “Assignments (essay questions)” that are pending approval by the facilitator. It can be confusing. If you are not getting a response from the facilitator, email them and be sure and include your name and the Course ID and ask to have course graded.
