The Buddha’s Words on Kamma: Four Discourses of the Buddha from the Majjhima Nikāya
By Bhikkhu Ñāṇamoli Thera
29 pagesNow a great producer of happiness is the making of good kamma. What is good about it? It is rooted in non-greed (generosity, renunciation), or in non-hate (loving kindness, compassion) or finally in non-delusion (wisdom, understanding).
In this booklet, Bhikkhu Ñāṇamoli Thera offers a translation of Majjhima Nikaya 57, 135, 136, and 41 with a brief introduction to each sutta, highlighting the importance of wholesome states of mind, right intention, and right mindfulness in generating good kamma. There is also a short but humorous and insightful preface.
