Zhang Rongfa: Why should I believe in causality?

Zhang Rongfa dictated the original text: Many people believe in Feng Shui and like fortune telling. There is no absolute good or bad in this. In my opinion, a person's life can only be used as a reference. Life, really don't calculate, if it is good, you will be happy, if the result is not good, you will be sad and upset. Therefore, I don't recommend fortune telling. If you want to know your life, there is actually another way, and that is to know your "cause and effect" in depth. If you have a good life, you will know that you have a good result in your last life. If you are in a bad situation today and encounter many difficulties, it may indicate that your previous good causes were insufficient. Many people will go to fortune telling. Of course, because they are uneasy and feel boundless, they want to seek God and peace of mind. This is human nature and understandable. However, if you think that everything will be all right just by praying to God and worshiping Buddha, you are too underestimate the gods. If you fail too much in life and work, no matter how much you ask God, God will not pay attention to you. Since it is useless to pray to God, you can only do good deeds and leave your good deeds in the past. Only in this way can you reverse your destiny in this world. Instead of asking for God blindly, it is better to ask for it yourself. This is the right way. Cause and effect is vivid, and it is a clear account. It is impossible for anyone to get cheap by speculation. If you don't do it yourself, you can't ask God to bless you and do it for you. The only way is to make up for it by doing good deeds and merits. It is possible to turn around and calm down when you do moral things and encounter difficulties and dangers. But good and evil are rewarded, which is natural. You can't bargain sooner or later. As a mortal, don't underestimate cause and effect. Someone asked me, "How do you know the cause and effect of your past life? My answer is simple. No one knows the ins and outs of your past life better than yourself, and you should know it now! Every one of us is affected by cause and effect without exception. You had a good life in your last life and you will have a good life in this life. If you didn't do good in your last life, you won't do good in this life. Success in this life is an achievement in previous lives. Everyone is born with an invisible mark, which is cause and effect. It determines whether a person's life is good or bad. People have no choice but to face, endure and change by their own efforts. The reason why I believe in cause and effect is confirmed by my own life. I was born in a well-off family, and my life is passable. I don't have a rich father to rely on, and I don't have the money to be a shipping company. Really started from scratch, relying on the efforts of all employees in the company. If I hadn't studied in my last life, I would never have made this career in this world. Otherwise, why do I have so many brothers born in the same family, but I am the only one who makes money? Many people think that I do public welfare, and I am very compassionate, just like my mother, but "compassion" actually comes from my previous life. Without previous lives, how could I have such a heart and willingness? I may have earned enough money, but I can't do anything about charity; Or even if we did, we couldn't achieve the scale we have today. Because I believe in cause and effect, I also see through cause and effect and deeply understand that cause and effect are two sides of the same coin. If you have a good cause and effect in this world, you still have to fix it, you can't be lazy, you can't screw it up, and you can't "show off" just because I am rich and powerful in this world. This is doomed to failure. If you were bad in your last life, but you succeeded unexpectedly in this life and made a lot of money, you should do good deeds even more so that you can continue to stick to it. If you didn't work hard enough in your last life and did evil in this life, then you will end up as "Amitabha" in your next life! Seeking Tao after knowing its cause and effect is to stimulate inner goodness. Generally speaking, there are two attitudes towards the law of causality. One is to completely deny and completely disagree; The second is the opposite, regarding cause and effect as destiny, and people can only bear it passively. These two views, in my opinion, are both wrong views on cause and effect, and they are not comprehensive enough. The cause and effect of past lives determine the fate of this life, and your kindness and virtue at this moment will be the power to reverse your innate destiny. The view that causality is not fatalism. On the contrary, because of "cause and effect", you can lay out your life more actively as an aid to your practice in this life. Some people think that today's evergreen glory is caused by the blessing of heaven, but I must emphasize that the reason why I seek the Tao is not to covet the benefits of merit, nor to seek the reward of fame and fortune given by God, but to stimulate people's kindness and mindfulness and bear more good results in the world. I also think that instead of blindly listening to the fortune teller, I should believe in what I can do in this world or whether I have a good career. If I have worked hard in my life, even if the result is not satisfactory, at least I have no regrets. After all, it is whimsical to want good results without planting good reasons at all! It's no use asking for more gods and buddhas! If you like this article, please share it!
