สรุปเนื้อหา

The Law of Kamma emphasizes the importance of understanding one's behavior and the effects of good and bad deeds. It is crucial for individuals to realize that good actions usually lead to positive outcomes, even if immediate results are not evident. Teaching this principle, especially to children, requires clarification on the conditions both within and outside oneself. Understanding objectives, making full efforts, and directing energy towards the right areas are fundamental for achieving desired outcomes. Efforts must be aligned with goals to ensure success. In teaching this law, one must instill the idea that control over one's actions comes from a deep understanding of its implications. Further insights were drawn from respected Buddhist sources.

But to be able to control their own behavior, they must fully understand the Law of Kamma. Then, when there is the opportunity to commit bad deeds, and nobody is watching, they will be able to control their urges. And when occasions for good deeds arise, they will perform them quickly, not caring if anyone is there to offer praise. How to Teach Children the Law of Kamma Since the writer's knowledge on this subject is limited, I have researched a book by a respected senior monk, and this is his explanation: "If you ask me whether it is difficult to make somebody appreciate the Law of Kamma, I will have to say no, it is not, provided you grasp the essence of this law. First of all, if you ask anybody if they are sure that good deeds will always bring good outcomes, most of them will say no. I started studying Buddhism four to five years before I was ordained. But before that I was not sure that good deeds always brought good results either. Hence, I was not able to control myself. Most people who have doubts about this law do not realize that there are two sets of conditions, namely: 1. The conditions inside oneself 2. The conditions outside oneself The Conditions Inside The conditions inside oneself have three parts: 1. Knowing the Objective. Your effort has to be for the correct objective. Simply put, before plunging into any work, one has to know what the objective of that endeavor is. And while doing it, one must make a full effort to achieve it. This theory is analogous to washing clothes. Generally, clothes will get most stained around the collar and the cuffs. So if one scrubbed the whole shirt, but not these two areas, is that shirt clean? The answer is no. Since effort was not directed to the right areas, the objective was not met, and that shirt remained dirty. The failure to meet this objective is like a person who is diligent but ignorant. He can work very hard, but his efforts will achieve little if anything, and sometimes, his efforts can even bring about more problems. To reach the goal, one must be fully aware and understand the objective of that undertaking before getting started. 2. Make a full effort to reach the objective. One must put a full effort into any project to obtain the best quality outcome.
