       CONSEQUENCES OF SPEAKING AT WILL

       Caller:  At times, people tend to be careless in their
       conversation.  For example, some may say things jokingly like “I
       will work like a horse in my next life to repay someone’s
       kindness”.  If they say such things, will it really lead to the
       repercussion of being reincarnated in the Animal realm as a
       result of karma?
       Master Jun Hong Lu:  Yes.  If the vow was made officially with
       Bodhisattvas around, there will definitely be karmic
       consequences.  If it was unofficial, then it will be fine.  It
       should not be an issue if such vow was made before you start
       practising Buddhism.  This is because a non-practitioner does
       not possess any ‘energy’, thus, words spoken will have no
       impact.  Let me give you an example, conceptually, do you think
       there is a difference between vows made by Master and vows made
       by you?
       Caller:  No doubt it will definitely be different.
       Master Jun Hong Lu:  Exactly, it’s that simple.
