HOW RETRIBUTION FOR MINOR KARMIC OBSTACLES ARE EFFECTUATED?
Caller: Karmic obstacles can either be eliminated through recitation of Buddhist scriptures or natural effectuation. What about those minor karmic obstacles, would Dharma Protectors make an advance arrangement to have them effectuated?
Master Jun Hong Lu: Yes, this may happen. A minor karmic obstacle would be, for example, you scold your parents, but they shrug it off, the resulting karmic obstacles are not severe or perhaps, none at all.
Caller: Does this mean that the karmic obstacle has been effectuated?
Master Jun Hong Lu: That is right. How so? If your parents bear grudges against you and take your scolding to heart, this resentment will enter their eighth consciousness and you will end up becoming indebted to them. For that, Dharma Protectors will definitely serve you the retribution. In what way? It may manifest in the form of a scolding or beating you endure from your mother. This is often the case for all of us when we were little.
Caller: Speaking about predestined calamities and the retributive effect of karmic obstacles, in the case where there is an impending predestined calamity, if we happen to scrape our hand and it bleeds, does it mean that the retribution has effectuated?
Master Jun Hong Lu: Of course. Such injuries are considered a severe form of retribution. They are referred to as ‘blood disasters’, even if the bleeding is minimal. On the other hand, an example of a mild retribution is you are rude to your mother, and she retorts, “Are you brainless? You are such a…”, and she finds a reason to scold you. That’s it! In this way, retribution is considered to have effectuated.
