Can Buddhism change your destiny? Release, is it useful to accumulate virtue?

Believing in Buddhism can certainly change fate! The most typical is the "four major disciplines". The Four Seasons from Fan is a book of good advice. The author is Huang Yuan, a famous official, thinker and anti-Japanese general in Ming Dynasty, who wrote his own personal experience. Huang Yuan lost his father in his early years, and his mother ordered him to study medicine. When he was young, he had an adventure. He met a fortune teller who claimed to be Mr. Kong (in fact, according to Yunnan County Records, this person is a famous Yi-ology scholar Yang Xiangchun, whose alias is Mr. Kong, and he is a peerless expert who is proficient in predicting the future with the number of emperors), and then predicted that he would take an exam in a certain year and become a scholar in a certain year. Predictions on when he will become famous, rank in the exam, become an official, die, have children, etc. In the past 20 years, all these have been proved to be effective, which makes Huang Yuan believe in fatalism and think that "honor and disgrace, life and death have a destiny". I think, in this case, what is the meaning of life? Since then, he has become decadent and has no ambition. Until he met Jackson Yungu, the two of them "sat in the same room" and had a long talk all night. Finally, Huang Yuan woke up and understood the truth that "life is up to me, happiness is up to me" and how to change his destiny. He said: "I then know that anyone who claims to seek happiness or misfortune is the words of a saint;" If misfortune and happiness are just providence, it is secularism. " In other words, we can fight for morality, benevolence, fame and fortune, give full play to people's subjective initiative, and believe that people's destiny is in their own hands, not in obedience to heaven and others. Since then, Huang Yuan's belief in life has undergone a fundamental change, from believing in fatalism to believing that fate is made by me and good and evil are rewarded. He used his own life experience to warn us that people's fate can be changed. The key lies in doing more good deeds to accumulate blessings, cultivating self-cultivation and eliminating evil thoughts. So Huang Yuan began to actively turn over a new leaf, accumulate good deeds, and made a wish to do 3,000 good things to change his life. The following year, Mr. Kong was ranked third in the imperial examination of the Ministry of Rites, and suddenly got the first place, and his prediction began to fail. However, Yuan Lefan still feels that he has a lot to do. It took more than ten years for these three thousand acts of kindness to be completed. Yuan Lefan never had a child, so he continued to wish for a child and vowed to do 3,000 good deeds. Xin Si gave birth to a son, the apocalypse. I once again made a wish for a China scholar, and I will do 10,000 good deeds. In the Xu Bing years, he got his wish again, won the Jinshi, and was named the Baodi county magistrate. Mr. Kong's original life was completely changed after his efforts to do good and change his life, and even his life span was extended to 74 years old.

Therefore, Huang Yuan began to write a book and spread it, leaving these experiences to his family and future generations. He expounded how to change fate from four parts: the study of life, the method of reform, the method of accumulating goodness and the effect of modesty. Formerly known as Xun Ziwen, it was later circulated in the world. In order to enlighten the world, it was handed down in the name of "becoming a mortal".
