Right View Ownership of Kamma:
All beings are owners of their kamma, inherit their kamma,

linked to their kamma and any intentional action (=kamma)

theirs, following them like a shadow, that never leaves...

Right View of the Ten Phenomena:
Giving alms has good effects, any self-sacrifice results in
pleasure, small gifts are also beneficial. There is resulting
fruition thus of any good and bad behaviour. There is moral
efficacy of any relation to mother and father. There is this
world and there are other worlds. There are beings who are
spontaneously and instantaneously born. There exist good &
pure recluses & priests in this world, who having followed the
right method of practice, themselves by their own supra-human
abilities, have directly experienced the other worlds and who
explain them and thereby make them known here...
