Is it consistent with the law of cause and effect that ancestors are good and evil, and future generations are rewarded?

When we read through the ancient and modern articles on cause and effect, we can see many things that the ancestors accumulated virtue and the younger generation was blessed, or that the ancestors accumulated virtue and the younger generation was rewarded. Many people have doubts about this, don't they say that personal cause and effect are borne by individuals? Why should future generations bear the consequences of their ancestors? The Tripitaka also said: Even if the father and son are close relatives, their respective results will not be accepted when they are mature. Then, the behavior of ancestors has an impact on future generations. Does this conform to the law of cause and effect?

"If you can't take it, you can only take it." Of course, cause and effect are self-inflicted. Indeed, as the Tibetan scriptures say, no one is willing to accept it. However, since ancient times, the house of Jishan has been covered by future generations and thrived; In a poor family, there are many examples of descendants being displaced, which accords with the law of cause and effect. Causality here does not mean that the good deeds or evil deeds of ancestors need future generations to bear the consequences, and they should be responsible for their own actions, and the ancestors' morality should bear the consequences themselves. A family is a big magnetic field, a good ancestor, and it attracts good offspring; And the immoral ancestor, he attracted the offspring of the same fruit, just like magnets, magnets attract the same kind of magnets, not plastic, mud, wood. For example, a father with heavy karma gave birth to an unhealthy son. His son was not rewarded instead of his father, but his father's karma attracted his son to be reincarnated.

"If there is a good family, there will be Qing Yu; if there is a bad family, there will be more disasters.". In fact, the word "Yu" here has a deep meaning: whether it is accumulating good or evil, the main result lies in oneself, but besides rewarding yourself, there is an extra feeling, and this "extra" is "Yu" What kind of virtuous family attracts what kind of offspring; What kind of virtuous family, what kind of life situation, Buddhism said: Hua Bao.

Therefore, we watch many people who have cheated, who are at large and have not been rewarded, but we will not blossom and bear fruit immediately after planting seeds. It is precisely because we often can't see the obvious cause and effect, so in modern people's moral consciousness, the connection between cause and effect is seriously missing, which leads to people being bullied and Mashan being ridden, but he doesn't know that bullying is actually himself! Moreover, with the extension of the mature time of karma, the karma he will bear in the future will be more than twice as much as the pain he has caused, which is not worth the candle.

People who hurt others are only for one benefit. If you don't know this profit, you will be hit. The so-called hit the blessing, not hit this blessing, it will harm others and be in debt. And because it hurts the profits made by others, this profit is greatly reduced. The accumulation of virtue is the accumulation of happiness. Modern people are busy living more comfortably and having more money. In fact, these blessings are all from the accumulation of fortune in the past. I don't know that the fundamental source of happiness lies in the accumulation of virtue, not economic intrigue.
