What does "karma" mean in "I can't take it with me"?

First, the "karma" here is artificial, that is, all good and evil thoughts and behaviors in the past and now are called "karma". It is a technical term often used in Buddhism. "Karma" includes karma thoughts such as good and evil, bitterness and happiness, and reincarnation thoughts such as past life, present life and afterlife.

Second, the industry type:

1. According to the good and evil nature of "karma", it can be divided into three types: (1) Good karma: good karma arising from kindness and good deeds; (2) bad karma caused by disgusting evil deeds; (3) No karma: no evil, no karma because there is no memory.

2. There are three kinds of industries: (1) physical industry; The karma created by the good and evil behavior of the body, such as not killing, stealing or adultery, is the three good karma of the body, and vice versa; (2) Oral industry: the industry created by the good and evil behaviors of oral and written language, such as four good industries: no swearing, no swearing, no bilingualism, and vice versa; (3) Italy; The karma created by the thought of good and evil, such as not being greedy, not angry or crazy, is the three good karma of thought, and vice versa.

3. There are two kinds of time to create "karma": (1) karma: good and evil karma created by body, mouth and mind in the past; (2) karma: the good and evil karma created by body, mouth and heart in this world.

4. From the cause and effect of "karma", there are three viewpoints: (1) karma: karma is the seed that will produce bitter and happy results in the future, so it is called "karma"; (2) karma: seeds can attract future bitter and happy news, so it is also called "karma"; (3) karma: this invisible force that creates good and evil, thus causing bitter and happy fruits, is called "karma". It is often said in Buddhist scriptures that "karma is incredible", which means that this kind of power can't be understood in words, but it is always there. All kinds of karma suffered by all beings in the world are the traction of karma, and the karma created now can produce "karma" and attract the fruits of the future.

5. In addition, the Buddhist scriptures call this kind of profession that specializes in chanting Buddhism and living in the pure land of the Western Heaven "pure karma", which includes three behaviors, also known as "three blessings of pure karma": (1) Honor adoptive parents, serve teachers, be kind and not kill life, and practice ten good karma; (2) accept the three conversions, quit the foot, and do not commit dignity; (3) Bodhicitta, convinced of cause and effect, reciting Mahayana and persuading doers.
