헤이케 이야기
The second concept evident in the "Tale of the Heike" is another Buddhist idea, karma. The concept of karma says that every action has consequences that become apparent later in life. Thus, karma helps to deal with the problem of both moral and natural evil. Evil acts in life will bring about an inevitable suffering later in life. This can be seen clearly with the treatment of Kiyomori in "The Tale of the Heike", who is cruel throughout his life, and later falls into a painful illness that kills him.
