Sermon
If you are a real Burmese Buddhist, what he preached in the sermon was nothing new. Differential karmic effects have long been recognized in Buddhism. For example, killing an Arahat is the worst possible crime you can commit in Buddhism, damning you in hell for eternity. Killing one million criminals isn't equivalent to killing an arahat. He was simply reiterating the same principle. It wasn't "non-Buddhists" of course. The lives of those who don't follow the five precepts are inherently less worthy than those who do.

 * Another problem is that "humans", while endowed with highly unique special privileges in Western thoughts, sadly occupy the same plane as animals in Buddhism. A bit better, but not much. Devas are above humans.Pak Thais (talk) 01:50, 27 December 2021 (UTC)
