Karma is immediate (during Earth Time) in Emptiness

Karma is the Universal Law of Cause & Effect (as discovered by Sakyamuni Buddha 3000 over years ago) or Newton Law of Action and Reaction as scientifically proven by Newton in the modern world.

Sakaymuni Buddha explain Karma or the Universal Law of Cause & Effect in mundane and Supramundane consciousness term (ie. Psychological effect arising from human beings or sentinent beings’ thoughts, speeches and actions or compounded or collective effects through human or sentinent beings interaction) - ie. the Universal La Law of Cause & Effects resulting from the 5 mental aggregates.

Buddha is the only person that can "see" or "vision" karma through his powerful Jhana that can correlate cause and effect not only in this lifetime - but past and future lifetimes. To able to "see" or "vision" past and future lives, the Buddha Jhana power must be able to link - "relinking birth consciousness continuum" when the 4 Great Elements of body demise - whereby "supramundane consciousness" will become dominant replacing "mundane consciousness" that are mainly experienced by a living human being. Where will the human being reborn and in which realm - is the volition of his karma that will determine his rebirth - and the Buddha Jhana power is able to see all the successive cognitive "relinking birth consciousness continuum" taking place when the Buddha is in deep Samadhi or Jhana.

Newton can only explain & scientifically proof the Law of Action & Reaction resulting from the interactions of the 4 Great Elements (matter, temperature, liquid & air).

Karma is immediate (happening during Earth Time) in Emptiness Mind - not delayed (into Universal Time) as opposed to mundane murky mind.

Just like throwing a ball 5 ounce of strength directly on the wall - it bounce back and hit the thrower 5 ounce back squarely on the face (Earth Time) - in Emptiness Mind (like a mirror). Thrower can immediately associate cause & effect - immediate karma.

So when Sakyamuni Buddha was savagely, verbally wrongly accused and abused but did not retaliate, the Buddha exclaimed - for "My Mind is Empty like a Mirror. Your abused will leave no trace in me and I will not elicit any karma in my Mind of Emptiness. Your abuse will bounce off the Mirror and boomerang back to you in equal veracity. For in Emptiness, Greed, Hatred & Ignorance are eradicated. For in Emptiness, karma no longer arise in the Supramundane Mind - though karma arise in Mundane body."

In mundane murky mind, it like throwing a ball in an empty room - that bounce at every corner of the room - before hitting the thrower - after many bounce (not direct hit) - (Universal Time). Thrower cannot associate cause & effect - delayed karma.

Karma of 小三灾 is possible if not carefully managed ：-
(1) Massive Explosion - Cosmic phenonmenon (eg. Asteriod), Nuclear explosion etc
(2) Epidemic (eg. SARs, bird flu etc)
(3) Big war, hunger, poverty, crop failure etc

All the zen signs, indications are revealing... & are sliding downwards, becoming more and more serious...

Only 3-Ring Fruitions of Compassion, No-Self & Panna Wisdom with 9 Grade Lotus + Aspirant Buddha arising from the Bodhi Heart (卍心) can neutralise the 小三灾 which is the karma arising from 3 human evil roots of poison - Ignorance, Hatred & Greed. But the right zen place, condition and environment must be provided to facilitate this from taking place, failing which Universal phenomenon will experience topsy-turvy.

Hasn't the series of trials proof the inevitable?

A right platform must be in place to intercept substantial danger when it arises before it result in catastrophic harm.
