Dhamma Talk on Kamma and Cessation Kamma is not just the inherited effects of our actions but also the present actions we commit. The key is to understand the process in such a way that one only experiences inherited effects without producing new causes to experience in another Rebirth. Understand that kamma is not deterministic and that choices in the present moment are given to us by the effects our past choices and that the choices we make now, which are fettered by Craving, Conceit and Ignorance, lead to choices in the future that will continue to lead to Suffering. Ultimately, one sees how this process applies to Cessation and Contact with the Nibbana Element during each of the Path and Fruition levels.
