“Surely if living creatures saw the results of all their evil deeds, they would turn away from them in disgust. But selfhood blinds them, and they cling to their obnoxious desires. They crave pleasure for themselves and they cause pain to others; when death destroys their individuality, they find no peace; their thirst for existence abides and their selfhood reappears in new births. Thus they continue to move in the coil and can find no escape from the hell of their own making.” IfsPainMovingDesireTurnsEvilCausesPleasureResultsExistenceHellSawsBirthCreaturesIndividualityDeedsKarmaDisgustingThirstCraveLiving CreaturesObnoxious Author:Gautama Buddha
