It's from the heart, right?

There is an ancient proverb: "There are no phases in the heart, and each phase is born of the heart; One phase is unintentional, and the other is destroyed at will. This sentence shows that a person's appearance will change with his mentality. Even though he has a fierce face now, he often shows sympathy, so the lost face will soon turn into good luck. On the other hand, even if he is full of happiness now, if he doesn't know how to do good and accumulate virtue, and often thinks of greed and hatred, then his happiness will gradually disappear. Therefore, the heart is the hub of the face, and it is better to look at the face than the heart.

When an old friend is in trouble, he will try his best to help. If you do the above 36, you will be a very important person in the future (or the afterlife) and live a long and good life. Incomplete, the blessing is discounted; The less you do, the worse it gets. Those who reach 30 items can be honored in the secretariat (equivalent to the modern provincial chairman), those who reach 10 or above can be appointed as county magistrates or assistant ministers, and those who reach five or seven items will also be rich. (Translated from "Destiny is in Your Heart", page 26) The first thing in the section is to be kind, and the second is to be poor. Pei Du was from the Tang Dynasty. When he was young, he was penniless and made a living by teaching in a private school in the country. Although knowledgeable, I was unlucky and failed again and again.

One day, he walked into the street, passed a temple and saw thich nhat hanh showing his face to others. He waited for everyone to leave before asking his face. Thich nhat hanh has long been familiar with it, saying, "You are born with a humble appearance. Not only is there no hope of fame in my life, but my eyes are floating outside and my entrance is vertical. It's a street begging for food, starving to death! I don't think you should take the exam! 」

Pei Du was very sad to hear that. He was so depressed all day that he was listless in teaching.

A few days later, Pei Du went for a walk in Xiangshan Temple and saw a woman kneeling in front of the Buddha, mumbling a prayer, and left in a hurry after praying. Pei Du saw a parcel on the table and opened it. This is a very valuable item, a jade belt and two rhinoceros belts. He thought, this must belong to the woman just now, so he sat waiting for the owner.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, the woman, sweating and panting, hurried into the door, scanned the desk and burst into tears.

When Pei Du came forward to ask her, the woman cried and said, "My father is seriously ill and his family business is in danger. I invited a famous doctor yesterday, and I got a little better. So this morning, I rushed to my relatives' house, borrowed a jade belt, and prepared the mortgage loan medical expenses. I passed by this temple to pray, but I was in a hurry and forgot to bring my jade belt. When I arrived at the temple, I found that the jade belt was lost. I have no money, my father can't live, and I have a mother and siblings to support. I don't know what to do! " Say that finish, and burst into tears.

Pei Du was reduced in price, and the woman thanked her and left.

Pedro met thich nhat hanh again on his way home. Just a few steps away, thich nhat hanh told Pedro to turn around and said to him, "You must have done a great thing. I saw your face. The entrance of the snake has become a jade belt pattern. Not only will you not starve to death, there will be endless blessings in the future, and it may be you in the future! " 」

Pei Du was afraid of thich nhat hanh's satire, and replied, "What a joke! Why is the master's speech inconsistent? 」

Thich nhat hanh replied: "Seven feet is not as good as a foot face, a foot face is not as good as a three-inch nose, and a three-inch nose is not as good as a little heart! 」

Pei Du smiled and said, "What does it feel like? 」

Thich nhat hanh replied, "If you want to know the meaning of the sky, you should take it from the clouds, know what is in your heart, and distinguish the God in your eyes. You have accumulated a virtue, your eyes are not floating, your eyes are purple, your mouth lines are longer than those in the pond, and your beard is even and beautiful. If you do the evil deed, your face will change, and you will certainly enjoy extremely expensive wealth! 」

So Pei Du told thich nhat hanh about the jade belt he had just found in Xiangshan Temple, and the Zen master also praised his kindness.

That year, Pei Du was admitted to Jinshi. Because of his prosperous career, more than ten years later, he was promoted to "Bobo University" (equivalent to today's executive vice president) and soon became prime minister. The process of his promotion to prime minister was very tortuous:

At first, Pei Du was ordered by the imperial court to go to Cai Zhou to announce a decree to the army. After Pei Du returned to the imperial court, he wrote to the imperial court to crusade against the traitors.

Wang Chengzong and Li Shidao conspired against Cai Zhou's reinforcements, so they secretly lurked in the capital, stabbed the powerful minister and killed the Prime Minister Wu. They attacked Pei Du with their swords three times. The first sword cut the shoelaces. The second sword stabbed Pei Du in the back, but only cut his underwear. The third sword slightly stabbed Pei Du's head. It happened that he was wearing a felt hat, so the sword wound was not deep. Just when the traitor came after Pei Du, Wang Yi, a follower of Pei Du, caught the traitor and cried. The traitor turned and cut off the king's hand with a knife, and Pei Du was able to escape. Because Pei Du escaped in a hurry, he accidentally fell into a ravine. The traitor thought Pei Du was dead and left.

The emperor said: "Pei Ducan's escape from danger (in fact, it is his blessing) is all providence!" So he ordered Pei Du to recruit envoys for Huaixi, pacify the civil strife in Huaixi, and named him "Jin Gong", and he himself was often ordered to send envoys to border countries. The King of Siyi will definitely ask about Pei Du's age and appearance, which shows how much Chinese and Yi people respect and admire him!

Pei Du served the four emperors and always showed good moral character. He has five sons, all of whom were knighted by the court. (Biography of Pei Du in Tang Dynasty)

(Comment) Pei Du found a valuable jade belt in Xiangshan Temple. She returned it to her when she saw the woman who lost it. The woman was moved to tears and thanked him. Pei Du smiled and said, "You'd better go back and save your father as soon as possible! Later, people who are proficient in facial expressions and numerology told him: "The virtue and future you accumulated in Wanli were unexpected! 」

Pei Du was hacked to death three times when he met a traitor. Isn't this what Han Yu said: "Is it God's support that thieves are not hacked to death?" In fact, this is caused by Pei Du's good character.

Why can Pei Du turn short life into long life, from poverty to wealth, and get such a big reward?

Because the difference between a gentleman and a villain is greed. Pei Du's heart is relatively clean, not only indifferent to other people's lost valuables, but also indifferent to life and death. He is generous, so he is generous. If he really wants to return other people's relics, he has been glad that he has a good virtue, and even boasted to others, then his blessing will be very small. (Historical Induction, Volume III, page 122) Giving up money to help others and losing face disappeared during the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty. There was a very famous fortune teller named Chen Qi in Hangzhou. Because his physiognomy is so effective, everyone nicknamed him "Ghost Eye Seven".

At that time, there was a wealthy businessman named Xueer in Hangzhou. He invited two friends to see a photo.

"Ghost Eye Seven", the first friend of physiognomy judge Cher said, "You will be promoted after falling! Judge the second friend and say, "You will be rich in one month! When the fortuneteller saw Cher, he was surprised and said, "You have the color of plaster. I'm afraid you will die if you don't escape for 50 days, and you may not make it to the Mid-Autumn Festival! 」

Cher's first friend is a yamen document. One day, when he was walking on a mountain road, he heard that the governor was hunting on the mountain and stopped to watch. Soon, I saw a grizzly bear chasing a man. In order to save people, he picked up a wooden stick on the side of the road and rushed forward to fight with the grizzly bear. After a while, several military lords came and killed the bear together. Afterwards, it was discovered that the man the grizzly bear was chasing was the governor. In order to thank him for saving his life, the governor promoted him to the position of a small county magistrate.

Cher's second friend is a scholar, and his grandfather is dying, so he told his descendants who are far away from home to die, and told his family that whoever went home first would give him 5.2 thousand gold to be buried in the back garden. Because of the scholar's strong filial piety, he rushed back to his hometown overnight; At home, grandpa gave him 5200 gold before he died.

Cher saw that the two friends who visited him together had done their duty, and felt that she was probably in born to die, so she took out money to do good deeds, build bridges and roads, and put medicine in the coffin. He thought: Death will come sooner or later. What am I worried about?

One day, Cher was walking by the Qiantang River and saw a man who seemed to want to jump into the river. Cher immediately stepped forward, hugged him and asked him why he committed suicide.

He replied, "My name is Hu Rui, and I'm from Yangzhou. I pooled the money of several brothers to purchase goods in Hangzhou. Unexpectedly, a hurricane sank the cargo ship last night. Although I saved my life, I thought about it and went back to my hometown. I might as well die, so I want to throw myself into the river. 」

Hearing this, Cher coaxed him and donated him two thousand five hundred and twenty pieces of silver. Hu Rui asked Cher to leave his name, but Cher refused.

Half a month after the Mid-Autumn Festival, Cher wandered in the street and met his physiognomy. Ghost eye seven said in surprise, "Mr Xue! The plaster on your face is gone! You should die, you must have done great kindness, and you will live a long life in the future! 」

At this time, Cher realized in her mind that "it's good to live long". He smiled at his face, explained the reason and thanked him for his advice.

Later, Cher-Yi was very kind and didn't die until she was 90. ("Fate is in the Heart", page 19) Repairing dikes to promote learning, writing, and distinguished appearance, he is a native of Longshan Township, Shunde County, Guangdong Province. He was admitted to Jinshi in 49 years. Before he was developed, the fortune teller said that he could only reach four levels in his life.

In the fifty-ninth year of Qianlong, Guangdong's direct dike burst. Wen returned to his hometown because of Ding's worries and witnessed the displacement of the people. He knows that building a dam is not an easy task. According to the old practice, taxes were levied according to the size of the field, but he didn't exactly follow the previous method. He suggested that the rich people in Shunde county donate money to complete the dike construction. In addition, he established a voluntary school and was willing to do good deeds and help others.

Later, when he returned to Beijing, the physiognomist looked at his face and said in surprise, "You must have planted a lot of blessings when you returned to China, otherwise how could your face and bones have changed greatly?" Can be promoted two levels! 」

Wen told the fortune teller about it, and the fortune teller smiled and said, "Your future is limitless! 」

Later, he served as examiner in Guangxi, Sichuan and Shandong, presided over Shaanxi-Gansu Academy, and was promoted to assistant minister of the Ministry of War. His son, Wen Chengti, was a scholar in Daoguang's six-year exam, and entered imperial academy, where he became the chief of punishments. (The Theory of Karma and Facts, p. 277) When Song Dairong was born, he had two twin brothers, Gao and Gao, who behaved, talked, thought and understood like the same person. At the age of sixteen, they were admitted to the scholar together. After marriage, parents ordered their daughter-in-law to wear different clothes and shoes to identify her husband.

One day, they met Mr Chen Xiyi. After seeing their faces, Chen Xiyi said, "You two have good eyes, straight noses, a red mole on your mouth, white ears, red outlines and clear spirits. You are all in the branch. What's more, your eyes are bright now, and you must be in the same high school! 」

During the autumn exam, his two brothers went to Beijing at the same time and stayed with relatives. A beautiful young widow lives next door. Xiao Biao was unmoved by his single-minded pursuit of learning. Xiaoji had no choice but to have an affair with that young woman. Later I found out and told the widows. The widow was afraid of committing a crime and threw herself into the river.

After the autumn exam, their brother visited Mr Chen Xiyi again.

Chen Xiyi was taken aback and said, "Your two brothers have changed a lot. One is getting better and the other is getting worse. Xiao Biao's eyebrows are purple and his eyes are bright. He must be in high school. Xiaoji's eyebrows have changed, her eyes are wandering, her lips are dark, her nose is red and black, her white ears are dry and burnt, and her face is haggard and cold. This must be corrupting morality and changing his face. Not only did you fail the exam, but it was also a sign of premature death. 」

After the list was published, Xiaoji came last and died of depression.

Later, Xiao Biao became a big official, with a great reputation, many descendants and talented people. On his 70th birthday, Mr. Chen Xiyi also came to congratulate him and made an impromptu comment: "It's easy to see the faces of ordinary people! But people's fate is not exact, because life is in heaven and everything depends on people. If we can conform to heaven and be in harmony with personnel, the world will be prosperous. People's spirit suddenly gathers and disperses, people's ambition suddenly relaxes, and everything inside will be shaped externally (ideas will affect appearance). God is selfless, happiness can be reduced because of sin, and sin can also be redeemed through good deeds. Born in your heart, you can't escape other people's eyes. This is called luck and misfortune, but people call themselves. 」

The Gao family, old and young, appreciate and admire the truth that Mr. Gao said, "Seek good fortune and avoid evil." Everyone writes down their motto with a pen and always stays alert. ("Destiny is in Your Heart" page 14) Humility and gloom. Zhang's parents died when he was very young. His uncle raised him as his own child.

His uncle has seven children. One day, Zhang's uncle said to him, "I should give you the property and divide it into two parts!" 」

Zhang said, "I can't bear to let my cousin have a piece of the action. Please divide it into eight parts! 」

Uncle refused, and Zhang He repeatedly shirked it. Finally, my uncle had to do as Zhang said. At that time, Zhang Cai was 17 years old and was recommended to enter Beijing in advance.

There are more than twenty people living with Zhang. After seeing everyone's faces, the fortune teller pointed to Zhang and said, "This is the only young man in Nangong who can get a high position! 」

My roommate rebuked the fortune teller and said, "We have been through all kinds of examination rooms, aren't we as good as that brat?" If you haven't finished posting the list, I'll spit on your face! 」

The fortune teller replied, "I am a layman, but I think this young man has a gloomy face, so I admire him!" " 」

After the list was published, the fortune teller's words really came true. (page 77 of induction notes and training certificate, page 5 of volume 2 of induction) Elder Dahui, who presides over Qingyun Temple in Dinghushan, Guangdong Province, has been blessed for a long time to save people from hunger and drowning. He tried hard to cultivate his spirit and realize the aisle. He knew some secrets. He is over seventy years old, but he is still a sage like type. Although the medical skill is superb and the appearance is average, it is not easy to show it.

At that time, Gaoyao County Magistrate visited Qingyun Temple accompanied by Liu. Because I know Elder Dahui very well and know that he is good at numerology, I told the magistrate. The county magistrate asked Elder Dahui to tell the fortune himself.

Unable to refuse, Elder Dahui reluctantly agreed to the magistrate's request. He asked the judge to lie down and rest, and he sat cross-legged for about half an hour. Then I asked the county magistrate to sit down and relax.

Elder Dahui stared intently and told the county magistrate with the Buddha's name: "Creatures can live long in their hands. 」

The magistrate asked again, "What is my future? 」

Elder Dahui smiled and said, "I am stupid and dare not predict your future. A man of great virtue has his own blessings. As long as you can keep your pious kindness, it is the great fortune of the people of the county. 」

Knowing that Elder Dahui doesn't talk easily, the magistrate found him very reserved. So after drinking tea, he asked Liu's staff to inquire about the secret in private.

Elder Dahui told Staff Liu frankly, "I looked at the magistrate's face and found that the luster and auspicious feeling on his face were gone, and it was gray-black. His palm is black and white, and I'm afraid his life will be less than a year. Fortunately, the true color has not yet retreated, saying: there is salvation in danger, and life cannot be lost. As the father of a hundred miles, his gestures and decrees are related to the life safety of the people. If he is kind enough to save people from drowning and hunger, it will benefit everyone. So the old woman finally asserted that he saved his life by accumulating virtue, not by talking nonsense! 」

Liu's staff always nodded and said, "Yes! Yes! " He didn't dare to tell the county magistrate directly, but told the county magistrate gently: "What the old monk means is that Zun County must do something good that saved many people in a few months before Shou Yuan can grow! 」

Soon, the west Liao area was flooded by disasters. The flood rose several feet overnight, flooded farmland and then flooded many houses. Many victims drowned and shouted for help.

The county magistrate took a look at the nearby Gorkon, which made him feel terrible and unable to deal with the aftermath at the moment. I saw strong and brave villagers escape by boat, but young children and babies were left in the water without help.

Seeing this, the county magistrate suddenly ordered that the person who saved a child could be rewarded with a silver or two, and the more he saved, the more he would be rewarded. As a result, families with boats were sent to save children, saving more than 400 children.

Later, the county magistrate was promoted to Huizhou magistrate. Passing through Luofu Mountain, he met Elder Dahui again. When Elder Dahui saw it, he said, "Amitabha! Good intentions will eventually be rewarded, and your blessings will last forever. " (Based on page 8 of Destiny in Your Heart)
