What the Buddha said about Kamma = Intentional Action:I am the owner of my actions (kamma), inheritor of my actions, born of my actions, related through my actions, and have my actions as my judge ... Whatever I do, good or evil, I will feel the resulting effects of that ... Source: AN V 57 Intention,

Bhikkhus, is what I call action, for through intention one initiates these actions through the door of the body, speech or mind.There is kamma (intentional action), Bhikkhus, that ripens in hell.... There is kamma that ripens in the animal world.. There is kamma that ripens in the world of humans.... There is kamma that ripens in the heavenly world.... Threefold, however, is this ripening fruit of kamma: ripening during here in this life, & ripening during the next rebirth,and ripening in later rebirths ...

Source: AN VI 63The 10 advantageous courses of action:The 3 bodily actions: avoidance of killing, stealing, abusive sexuality.The 4 verbal actions: avoidance of lying, slandering, angry & empty speech.The 3 mental actions: withdrawal, good-will, right

views. Source: MN 9Greed, Bhikkhus, is a condition for the arising of kamma.Hate is a condition for the arising of kamma. Confusion is a condition for the arising of

kamma. Source: AN III 109One who kills & harms goes either to hell or, if reborn as man, will be short-lived. One who torments others will be afflicted with disease. The angry one will look ugly, the envious one will be without influence. The stingy one will be poor, the stubborn will be low & stupid. The lazy will be without knowledge. In the contrary case, one will be reborn in heaven

or reborn as man. One will be long-lived, beautiful, influential, highborn & intelligent Source: MN 135There are 10 meritorious actions leading to human or divine rebirth:

 

 

1: Giving. 2: Morality. 3: Meditation.4: Reverence by paying respect to monks & elder.5: Performing services to others. 6: Transference of merits to others. 7: Rejoicing in others' merit.8: Learning this true Dhamma.9: Teaching this true Dhamma.10: Correcting views.

To the extent that there are beings, past & future, passing away & re-arising,all beings are the owner of their actions, inheritor to their actions, born of their actions, related through their actions, & live dependent on their actions.Whatever they do, for good or for evil, from that will they feel the result...
