It's said that some kammas are not to be experienced, some kammas have to be experienced. Not all kammas have to be experienced. For example Angulimala story, the bad vipaka of killing many people could not come into fruition because he had cut the cycle of birth and death. > Seeds ripen only if they meet the right conditions. But if they do not > meet the right conditions they remain as seeds; if they are destroyed > they can never ripen at all. As mentioned here: [Questions on Kamma](http://www.budsas.org/ebud/ebdha057.htm) But in [Karajakā­ya­sutta](https://suttacentral.net/an10.219/en/sujato) , it says: > I do not say that there is making an end of suffering so long as one > has not experienced the results of volitional kamma that has been done > and accumulated. Which one is the correct one, do they contradict each other?
