THE KARMIC RETRIBUTION FOR KILLING
Master Jun Hong Lu: There are two types of karmic retribution for the act of killing. Firstly, those who often commit the act of killing will have relatively short lifespans; and secondly, they will be prone to illnesses.
In other words, if one is always in poor health or has a short lifespan, it will definitely be due to the act of killing in his past lives. Think about it, when one is killing chickens, ducks, cockroaches, ants… aren’t they taking away lives? That explains why people who have committed the act of killing will have a short lifespan.
