What do laymen say about fortune telling?

Excuse me, Buddhist laymen, can they really read fortune-teller? After reading it, they will know this person's past and see this person's future.

Note that from the Buddhist point of view, fate can be changed, and you can eliminate bad karma by practicing the five commandments and ten good deeds yourself. Buddhist scriptures and the like can also be used to quit school. A monk or a layman can do it by himself. You can come to the Tibet Forum to have a look and exchange views. There are also many senior Buddhist monks practicing at home.

Karma (1) What is Karma?

There are many concepts in Buddhism that we must understand. If we don't know some basic knowledge, then we can't correctly grasp and apply the truth of Buddhism to benefit ourselves and others.

One of the most important concepts is the concept of karma. When it comes to cause and effect, almost all people in China know a thing or two. At the same time, the cause and effect of social cognition are different from Buddhism. Ordinary people have never studied Buddhist classics, and the concept of cause and effect is obtained through book reports and indoctrination by others. However, few of these views are really based on Buddhist classics. Everyone thinks what is the cause and effect, which is inferred from their own cognition. This has caused many misunderstandings.

Ordinary people's concept of cause and effect is mostly killing people to pay off debts. If you believe in the afterlife, you will think that this result will not appear until the next life. Most people think so, don't they?

In fact, the cause and effect law in Buddhism are not like this. Strictly speaking, this is completely different. Let's try to show you how cause and effect work. What kind of law does everything in this world follow, and how to use this law to benefit yourself and others?

(1) How does causality work?

What goes around comes around is like a seed growing gradually under the right conditions and finally bearing fruit.

Because it is a seed. What we have said, done and thought before will become seeds and causes.

For example, I thought about it today, I want to make some money, or I want to go somewhere to play. This is all due to. Everything we say and do will become seeds.

Seeds need suitable soil, sunlight and water to grow and bear fruit. With the cooperation of various conditions, the seeds gradually grow and finally bear fruit. This process is like the karma we create, gathering all kinds of help and finally getting the result.

What is fate? It is also the content, language and meaning of our body, what we do, say and think. These are not only seeds, but also the edges and help of other seeds.

For example, if a person wants to travel somewhere, that is an idea. It happens that he is rich, blessed, has time, weather and environment. These are all reasons, so he went. Unexpectedly, he owed others gambling debts before, and as a result, he met a creditor at the place where he played. Got a beating. So going to fight this thing, although it is the fruit of his original idea, but this fruit is formed by the accumulation of various conditions, and it has also become another help for his fate and result.

This is how cause and effect work. Each cause develops under suitable conditions, and at the same time, it plays a role in the development of other causes, intertwining and influencing each other. Very complicated. It is so complicated that we ordinary people can't imagine it.

If you have to use metaphor: everyone's cause and effect is like an endless forest, countless seeds, countless germination, flowering, growth, and countless fruits. The fruit continues to turn into seeds. Different plants are intertwined, interdependent and influenced each other.

Or it can be likened to an endless net, with various causes and karma criss-crossing. These conditions are a meeting point: karma, countless karma and other karma are constantly converging, and layers are endless.

The Buddha said in the Buddha Prince Fu Li Karma Sutra:

If all karma is not bad after a hundred robberies.

Cause and effect, affection and effect.

In other words, our karma, all kinds of karma, will not be damaged even if we have been in the world for a long time, no matter what we do is good or evil. Will become a seed, once the conditions for cooperation with it are met, then there will be results.

"Zhancha Good and Evil Cause" says: Now, there are things like happiness, happiness and misfortune. Fate is close, so it is ruined. Industry setting is based on heart. Not bad, not bad.

All kinds of things we encounter now, both bitter and happy, are caused by various reasons. If these margins were gone, there would be no such result.

And these karma are all gathered with your heart. There won't be any error.

"Hua Yan Jing" cloud: One industry knows all kinds of karma in all walks of life. Like doing business. Everything is the same.

In other words, from a single karma, we can know that all our infinite karma and karma are formed by the aggregation of various karma. Like this karma. All our own causes and consequences are like this.

Buddhism talks about cause and effect, not as simple as paying off debts and killing people. The cause and effect of Buddhism is to point out how everything we encounter works, all because of the cooperation of karma and various reasons, and finally form a result.

Some people will say, it seems nothing, quite simple. It's quite simple, and we will introduce the characteristics of causality in depth later, and what are its characteristics. And how we can use the law of causality to benefit ourselves and others.
