(English subtitles) Master Hui Lu (慧律法師) talk dharma.
Subtitles:
So blessed people see that everything is auspicious, including direct rewards and circumstantial rewards and wish it is auspicious in the day time and is auspicious at night. Wish everything is auspicious, right? Blessed people have good luck wherever they go because they have no bad causes. Blessed people will never have disaster wherever they go. Is it?
When a plane is doomed to crash, some passengers rush to board the plane. Some passenger has a temporary affair and cannot catch the plane. He is a blessed person. As a result, all hundreds of passengers die. Instead, this person who failed to catch the plane survived. Therefore, it is hard to tell, you know.
Everyone, you must remember this. Karma is like a shadow following the figure. It's as deep as a sea; it can bar the way of sages. Karma is so dreadful. Karma is from your daily thoughts, words and deeds. That's why we persist. We Buddhists must keep our thoughts, words, and deeds unstained. Even a bad word is unacceptable.
It's like we deposit money in our bank accounts. When saying a bad word, it's like you with draw a bit money. If you make a bit bad karma of deed, word, and thought every day, or you commit a crime, it's like withdraw 100,000. Killing is like you withdraw a million. Deeds, words, and thoughts, combine to 3 millions. You have no money in your bank account. Right? Furthermore, commit arson and burn 20 people to death. Then all you money in the bank is withdrawn. In addition, you are heavily in debt. Why? You owe debts of life.

So, it's hard to tell this world. You seem to take a big loss. But I tell you that blessings follow the good. You seem to be taken advantage of, may not end up suffering loss. You pretend to be ignorant, pretend not knowing anything. He bullies me, that's ok.
That's weird. Those who are taken advantage of will have blessings slowly. Those who often take advantage of people will run out of their good fortune soon.
The sky deceives you, people deceive you, karma won't deceive you. Sentient beings would bully you; karma wouldn't bully you. Therefore, people with endurance have blessings.
The more you speak ill of him every day, the more blessing he will get. You often criticize him. Your plant the seeds of evil due to your vicious mind and mouth. Instead, he plants the seeds of kindness. Your money goes into his pocket.
So, those who scold people are most stupid. The money of those who attack people goes to others. Others do meritorious deeds, how about you? You are in debt. So, we shouldn't have wicked mind. Shouldn't scold others. We must keep our deeds, words, and mind clean.

We should not reveal a bit of evil. Because we are defiled sentient beings and now become undefiled. We have sufficient money in the bank. What is that for? To prepare the reserves for rebirth in Sukhavati. Today, you make oral karma and withdraw a little. Tomorrow you make another oral karma and withdraw a little. When you are traveling to the USA. You don't have enough money for your trip. When your life is about to end, you make karma of deeds, words, and thoughts every day, withdraw your good fortune, little by little. When you are traveling to the USA, Europe, travel to Germany to sightsee the Black Forest. As a result, you didn't see a tree because you are short of money. If you keep making karma, when your life is ending, your belief, vow, deeds, and blessings are insufficient.
Therefore, those who do evils are stupid. Keep pushing money to others, give to others. People with wisdom are silent. When taken advantages of or slandered, they don't argue. So, speaking till now, I encourage you must be vigilant, not to make bad karma.
