I ching, auspicious day of the zodiac, or Buddhism?

There are also many auspicious days in Buddhism.

Yijing and Buddhism choose different dates.

Just see which one you have confidence in.

The most important thing in Buddhism is kindness.

With the good and evil in the heart, the strength of all black karma, white karma and karma will also change.

On the surface, some people seem to have great merits in offering sacrifices to monks, building roads, building prayer halls, etc., but if there is no good thought, only nausea, these are just an image. Therefore, the size of merit does not follow the image, the key lies in the heart.

There was a man named Da in the ancient mirror, and once his soul was led to the underworld. The ghost officer ordered his men to submit the files of good and evil he had done among the dead. He found that his evil deeds file occupied the whole court, while his good deeds file was only as small as chopsticks.

The ghost officer ordered the weighing, but I didn't expect a lot of evil deeds to be lighter than good deeds. The ghost official said, "You can go."

Wei asked, "I am less than forty years old. How can I have so many sins?"

The ghost official replied: "As long as you think wrong, there will be a record in the underworld, and you don't have to wait until you break the law."

Wei asked again, "What's the content of that small document for doing good?"

The ghost official said, "The imperial court will build a large-scale project and build the Sanshan Stone Bridge, which will require many ordinary people to work hard. You wrote to advise the court not to do so. This volume is the manuscript of your paper. Although the court did not accept your suggestion, your kindness is for the benefit of all the people, so it is very powerful. "

These folk stories are of great significance in the cause and effect of good and evil. In our Tibetan areas, there are also many such folk stories and customs to persuade people to choose cause and effect as they do.

Through this story, we can know that kindness is very powerful. If we are always in a kind state in our daily life, our practice will be successful. Otherwise, even if you build a car behind closed doors every day, chanting and making merits, if your mind is full of nausea, no matter how great your image is, there is no great merit.

At present, there are many people who look good at ordinary times, but they are actually evil and particularly inhuman. Even if they kill people, they don't care at all, including some practitioners. In that case, it's really useless for you to practice Mahayana Buddhism. The venerable Adi Gorge once said: "The key to practice is whether the troubles are reduced." Less trouble shows that practice has improved; If your troubles are not reduced, but your nausea is increasing, how much better will your practice be?

Therefore, the quality of practice mainly lies in the heart. If you have a kind heart, even what your body does and what you say is not as good as Buddhism, because your heart is 100% kind, and these will become good Buddhism, just like the case of putting insoles on clay sculptures mentioned earlier.

"Heart Sutra" also said: "Among the three realms, the heart is the main one. He who can observe the mind is free after all; If you can't stand it, it will sink. " In the whole cycle, everything is dominated by the heart. If you have a pure heart, confidence and sadness, you have a chance to get rid of it; If you don't do this, if you just indulge in superficial good deeds, you will still be trapped in samsara and unable to obtain transcendental fruits.

In fact, don't say that people who practice, even if people in the world are not good, will greatly lose their blessings. Once upon a time, there was a man named Li in Fujian. He went to Beijing to take the exam and passed through Quzhou. A shopkeeper dreamed that the land god said to him, "A Li Xiu will come tomorrow. He is expected to go to high school. You should treat him well. " The next morning, Li Sheng did come. The shopkeeper warmly entertained him, gave him dry food and provided horses and chariots. Li Sheng asked why, and the master told him the dream. He was very happy to hear this, and thought at night, "Once I am admitted to a big official, my wife is too ugly to be an official wife, so I will change her."

After Li Sheng left, the shopkeeper dreamed of the land god and said, "That man has bad intentions. He wants to abandon his wife before he becomes famous. Now he has lost the hope of the exam. " When Li Sheng came again, the shopkeeper was so cold to him that he didn't even leave him any room. Li Sheng asked what the reason was, and the shopkeeper told him truthfully. Li Sheng was surprised and ashamed and left in frustration. He never became famous in his life. It can be seen that a thought of good and evil has a great influence on a person's fate.

In this world, a kind person will not only have a clear conscience, but also be praised by others. However, people with vicious hearts, even if they have various abilities and made some contributions, have no trust in him like a poisonous snake, and dare not contact him often to avoid being deceived and betrayed by him.

Therefore, kindness should be everyone's goal. However, it is a pity that many people blindly pursue money, houses and famous brands, but they sneer at the really beneficial kindness. In fact, if you can become a kind person, even without those things outside, your life will be very happy. On the contrary, if you are malicious, no matter how much good you do, it becomes a bad law.

Therefore, whether you are in a city or in a quiet mountain area, whether you are by car or by plane, whether you get up in the morning or go to bed at night, the only thing you need is kindness. Read the occasional greed and ignorance separately and try to repent.

Master Zong Kaba said: "A good heart is also good, and an evil heart is also evil. Everything depends on self-reliance, and we must diligently cultivate kindness. " If you are kind-hearted, you will get five people in the world smoothly; If you have a bad heart, not only can you not get these, but you may also fall into three evils. Therefore, liberation and destruction depend entirely on the self-mind, and we must diligently cultivate goodness.

Now some people have evil hearts. Although they enjoyed all kinds of happiness for a while, it was only a reward for doing good deeds in their previous lives, and after that, it was gone. Once he closes his eyes, the evil deeds he created in this life will mature, and he will feel the painful consequences of not being bullied. Therefore, only a kind heart is the foundation of all happiness and all merits.

It is recorded in the Four Seasons from Fan that when learning from Han Zhong the art of making iron into gold, Han Zhong told him: "Making iron into gold can help the world and help many poor people."

Lv Dongbin asked, "Will this gold become iron in the future?"

Han Zhongli replied, "It will take 500 years for iron to recover its original shape."

Lv Dongbin said: "If this happens, it will hurt people in 500 years. I don't want to do this. "

Han Zhongli marveled: "Cultivating immortals should have accumulated 3,000 merits. In your opinion, 3,000 merits have been completed. "

Although this is a Taoist saying, there are similar situations in Buddhism, such as the story of a merciful businessman and a brahmin in the stars. Although it looks evil on the surface, with a pure kindness, it can become a complete and endless resource in a short time.

Therefore, in the Skill Book, the Buddha said, "There is purity in meaning, so there are words and deeds, and joy comes with you and goes hand in hand." With a clean heart, your body and language will become clean, and everything you do will be happy. This kind of happiness is like a shadow following the body, it will follow you wherever you go. On the other hand, if the mind is not good, the body and language will also deteriorate, which will not only bring happiness, but also become the cause of pain. At this point, everyone should think twice and often observe how they are doing.
