66.21

Question: 'If one says that creating karma and receiving retribution is merely causes and conditions and not due to a self, why is it that for one who has realized selflessness, although there are causes and conditions of bad karma already created, they do not induce the reception of retribution? Since attaining selflessness means not receiving retribution, know therefore that the self creates evil karma and receives retribution, not karmic causes and conditions.'
