Wisdom of today.

By accustoming themselves to virtuous and nonvirtuous karma
Humans become habituated to these actions.
Though you may ignore such matters.
In other lives you will experience their effects, like a dream.
Those who do not train in generosity, ethical discipline, and the like
May have good family lineages, good bodies, and health.
And may have great power or enormous wealth.
But they will not find happiness in future lives.
As for those whose family lineage and such are inferior but who are not attached to sin
And who have qualities such as generosity and ethical discipline.
Their happiness in future lifetimes will grow
