Kamma, a volitional action, is a significant Buddhist teaching, conveying good and bad volition, as to do good receive good and to do evil receive evil. Kamma, if indicates action means the tenfold way of good or wholesome cause of action. However if it indicates results of action, it means twelve kammas with Ditthadhamma- vedanĩya kamma:- kamma to be experienced here and now as first category in this life.
In the context of Kammavipãkãvasesa, it implies the kamma results that fall on to a noble one who attained the final stage of holiness. Truly, though yet an arahat having relinguished merit and demerit, is to experience results of the past action he had done in this very life until his final nibbãna without any remainder of physical existence. Example could be seen from Moggallanathera killed by the opposites. Besides, when speaking of the law of Kamma (action) so far as a person depends on a round of rebirth (a circle of life) result of kamma shall fell on him in any existence he is born until his end of kamma in the final life. It is true that ignorance, craving, conceit, and view holding of one’s self are inclusive to the resend of rebirth, if this circle is cut there is no more rebirth in the next existence. Furthermore, an Arahat who has already cut off defilements, but is still in his life, result of kamma still fells on him. All the remain of kamma are void after his entering into nibbấna without any remainder of physical existence the relation between kamma result of kamma and circle of life are depending on each other as this.
