The Story of the impostor who had burned the monk's hut,


The Story of the impostor who had burned the monk's hut,

Resulting in being beaten to death, to be in hell and be an impostor.

The law of Karma is sometimes immediately reflected in that life. It is perhaps to wait until that person dies. But there are also some cases where people do receive the fruition both in the present and in the future.

This story was explained at the time when Lord Buddha lived in Veluvana Monastery. He preached about the impostor and gave the sermon that began with the following words:  “Na hi pāpaṃ kataṃ kammam”

Phra Buddha Kosa Carira told about the law of this matter in the commentary of the Dhammapada that once Venerable Moggallana and another monk descending from Mount Gijjhakuta In order to go for alms in the City of Rajagaha.

Venerable Moggallana saw one impostor and smiled but did not say anything. When the two monks returned to Veluvana Monastery, Venerable Moggallana then told the monk that that he smiled out because he saw the impostor with a human head, but with a snake body. The two monks went to see Lord Buddha and spoke about it.

Lord Buddha said that he himself saw this impostor on the day that he had attained the Enlightenment. Lord Buddha recalled the fate of Jinn himself that he would not only receive the fruition of Karma in one life. But the law of karma also had a negative effect on him in the later years.

A long time ago, the story said, there was an individual Buddha. who was respected by many people. The people helped to build a hut to him and traveled to see him by walking through the fields of a man.

The owner of the farm was afraid that the rice in his field would be damaged by the trampling of people who walked to the hut. Therefore he set fire to the hut in order that the individual Buddha should move to another place.

This is the law of karma. In Ditthavedaniyakamma (Karma gives effect today), the owner of the farm ,when he died, he  received the fruition of Karma in Aparaparavedaniyakamma (Karma gives effect later on)  by being born in in the great hell until the earth in the human world is thicker for  a Yojana and being born later on  to be an impostor because of the remnants of the remaining Karma.

Lord Buddha, when he had said that, then said that the law of action in this context was as follows:
" The sin looks like milk that is newly rolled, it will not yet be changed. In the same way,the action of the person did not come to fruition, but when the action did come to fruition, the person would suffer."

Then Lord Buddha spoke in Dhammapada Number 71 as follows:

Na hi pāpaṃ kataṃ kammaṃ
Sajju khiraṃ va muccati
Dahantaṃ balaṃ anveti
Bhasmacchannova pāvako.

Verily, an evil deed committed does not immediately bear fruit,
just as milk curdles not at once, smouldering,
it follows the fool like fire covered with ashes.
