"'If there is a world
after death, if there is the fruit of actions rightly and wrongly
done, then this is the basis by which, with the break-up of the body,
after death, I will reappear in a good destination, the heavenly
world.' This is the first assurance he acquires.
"'But if there is no
world after death, if there is no fruit of actions rightly and
wrongly done, then here in the present life I look after myself with
ease — free from hostility, free from ill will, free from trouble.'
This is the second assurance he acquires.
---The Buddha---
