Karma - gambling

  • Louis dave36

    does it mean that people who worked for casinos, like HR, finance and others, got bad karma?

  • Weychin

     Think not in absolute terms, but rather shades of grey.Depends on the karmic effects generated by the industry, direct and indirect. Also the person's level of participation an intent, direct or indirect. If doubtful, eg. gnawing at your concience, contemplate why it bothers you !

    Then why are there so many people in this industry? Still part of the entertainment industry. Go figure.

  • JitKiat

    Working for casino is defnitely not right livelihood. It is just like a butcher is not right livelihood. Unless you are bodisattva who temporarily use the situation to help other beings.

  • Weychin

    Yes ! you are right, but everybody still welcome to read or listen to the dharma. Also the industry attract all sorts of characters, it is a good area to observe them and reflect and contemplate when situation allows !
