Monks, I will teach you new and old Kamma, the elimination of (unwholesome) Kamma, and the way leading to the elimination of (unwholesome) Kamma.

Listen to that and attend closely, I will speak.

And what, Monks, is old Kamma?

The eye is old Kamma, to be seen as generated and created by volition (choices/decisions), as something to be felt. The ear is old Kamma, to be seen as generated and created by volition, as something to be felt. The nose is old Kamma, to be seen as generated and created by volition, as something to be felt. The tongue is old Kamma, to be seen as generated and created by volition, as something to be felt. The body is old Kamma, to be seen as generated and created by volition, as something to be felt. The mind is old Kamma, to be seen as generated and created by volition, as something to be felt.

This is called old Kamma.

And what, Monks is new Kamma?

Whatever action one does now by body, speech, or mind.

This is called new Kamma.

And what, Monks, is the elimination of (unwholesome) Kamma?

When one reaches liberation through the elimination of (unwholesome) bodily action, verbal action, and mental action, this is called the elimination of (unwholesome) Kamma.
