Is divination lottery one of Buddhist cultures?

That's Taoist culture. Predicting the future and summing up the past through divination and drawing lots is also based on the concept of Zhouyi.

As for the concept of Buddhism, it does not pay attention to the prediction of the future and the past. The so-called causal reincarnation pays more attention to the present.

For the future, there is only longing and expectation. As for what will happen, there is no need to know too much. Just work hard for the future from now on. If you know the future, you don't need to cultivate yourself now. )

Furthermore, for Buddhism, the future is changeable. There is no such thing as fate. Because the future is determined by the present, and what you do now (changeable and optional) will affect the future.

The future is determined by your present heart.

Taoism is different. The old horse said that home is mechanical materialism. It says everything, past, present and future, has been doomed. What kind of person you should eventually become ... this is the predictability of the future.

Based on this theory, it is possible and necessary to draw lots for divination.

Now, most of our fortune-telling (fortune-telling lottery) in Chinese mainland is based on Zhouyi, the essence of Taoism. Besides saying that it is a product of Taoism, how can it be explained?

As for the Buddhist temples and Antang in China, most of them are divination lottery, which is not unique to Buddhism. Real monks only use stories of Buddhism and Zen to guide all beings to do good deeds, which is contrary to the idea of divination and lottery to predict the future. )

As we all know, Buddhism is a foreign culture and Taoism is a local culture. Before Buddhism was introduced, Taoist culture was deeply rooted in China. There are more people who believe in Buddhism now. They think that the Buddha they believe in is omnipotent, and human beings are extremely curious about the unknown future. Therefore, according to the needs of the public, Buddhist temples and Antang have incorporated some Taoist culture into them.

In fact, China Buddhism is not an authentic Buddhism;

In fact, in a sense, China's Buddhism violates Buddhist thought;

In fact, this can better reflect the inclusiveness of China people.
