If it is permitted to experience retribution, then it is solely experienced in the next life, and two karmas—next life and subsequent life—cannot jointly attract it. If only former cultivation can produce that result, why does that which arises subsequently not produce it? > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 5.251](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1832.5.251) - [Next: 5.253](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1832.5.253) - [Up: 5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1832.5) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1832~en-mt.5.252) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1832.5.252](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1832.5.252) · Pramāṇa
