Recently, friends from all walks of life often ask Jiangnan Yilin the same question: Will open-air opportunities be condemned by God?
There are so many people asking, Jiangnan Yilin can't answer them one by one. I am just writing an article to discuss with you. This article seems to be discussing that open-air opportunities will not suffer from the scourge, but in fact it is discussing the decisive force of fate (perhaps this is the real intention of Jiangnan Yilin). If you are a firm or stubborn materialist, you'd better not read this article to avoid wasting your precious time.
To answer this question, there are two crucial points that must be clear, otherwise just saying "yes" or "no" is not a perfect answer.
These two points are:
First: from the perspective of grammar and logic, who is the agent who carries out the scourge? In other words, who is ultimately responsible for the implementation of the scourge?
Second: if there is such an agent, what rules does it follow to implement the scourge?
Now Jiangnan Yilin will discuss the above two problems step by step, and let Jiangnan Yilin analyze them layer by layer by exclusion method. The principles for implementing the exclusion method in Jiangnan Art Forest are as follows:
1. The person who carries out flogging must be unique, that is, there can only be one executor, not multiple executors. This executor is the meaning of the final judge and decider, not the meaning of the handler or the person who carries out the orders of the superior.
Obviously, if there are multiple implementers, then if the principles of different implementers are different, then everyone will go their own way and do what they like, and the world and even the universe will be in chaos.
If multiple implementers are based on exactly the same principles, then in modern terms, they are only agents who implement disasters, and the rules or the rule makers behind them are the only bosses.
Similarly, it is obvious that the implementation of this scourge must follow some rules. If the rules on which an object is based are biased and full of personal preferences, then this object is obviously not qualified to implement the scourge.
2. The rule on which the executor of the scourge is based must be a rule that cannot be modified by any object, including himself, that is to say, this rule is absolute.
Obviously, if this rule can be modified by an object, then it is not stable and unique. It may be partly reasonable, but it can't be universally applicable. In this sense, the laws of our countries are not omnipotent, nor are they universal or final decisive forces.
It can also be seen from the above discussion that the implementer and the rules he relies on actually overlap, and the two may be combined into one. See the discussion below for details.
Yilin in Jiangnan believes that the ultimate decisive force in the universe (you can also call it God in the philosophical sense) must be universal (if you don't agree with this view, there is no need to continue reading this article), and it must be unique and cannot be multiple.
Moreover, if everything can be separated, it will be biased and it will be impossible to be fair.
When talking about the perpetrators of disasters, most of us may have the following objects in mind:
1. Ghost
This answer is the easiest to rule out. If you admit the existence of ghosts, a forest in the south of the Yangtze River can tell you that ghosts are just one of the three evil ways in the cycle of six ways (heaven, man, shura, hell, hungry ghost and beast), and the level is not as good as that of people. What right does it have to punish people? As for the ghost killing we heard in reality or ghost stories, it has nothing to do with the scourge, but is purely revenge.
2. God
Due to the differences in history and culture, the gods of different nationalities are different, but if they add up, I'm afraid they are all over the sky. Intuitively, all the gods we know have personalities, none of them have reached the realm of Buddhism, and none of them can be empty. In this case, different gods must have different abilities, natures and preferences. Wouldn't heaven be in chaos if they were going to make a scourge? What's more, they are not at the top.
3. God, God and other religious leaders
Almost every religion, its religious leaders are endowed with omnipotent power, and even the world is created by them (in fact, there is only one on our planet), but if religious prejudice is put aside, there are all kinds of religions in the world, who is in charge? Who is the only one? Can religious leaders punish followers of religious leaders? If not, should we divide all spheres of influence like human beings? If so, then religious leader A will punish followers of religious leader B, and religious leader B will not protect his followers? Will there be arguments and wars? What's the difference between heaven or heaven and earth?
Speaking of this, friends with religious beliefs should never mistakenly think that Jiangnan Yilin is slandering or slandering religion (Jiangnan Yilin has great respect for all religions), and you will know what I mean when you see it later.
A series of rhetorical questions above a forest in the south of the Yangtze River only represent the questions that ordinary people may ask. In fact, Yilin in the south of the Yangtze River believes that all kinds of religious beliefs (neither wrong nor evil) will eventually achieve the same goal by different routes, but they will only be given different names. You call them gods, he calls them gods, and Jiangnan Yilin calls them buddhas. The so-called "doing everything possible to return to religion" may be just a physical body double, or an image of the ultimate decisive force.
In the philosophical sense, God does not refer to a god or entity that we intuitively understand, but actually represents an ultimate decisive force. For example, friends who have read A Brief History of Time may know something about the ultimate decisive power. For example, at the moment before BIGBANG, what prompted BIGBANG? It won't explode for no reason, will it? What is the source of power? Some people may call this source power God.
4. Buddha
Jiangnan Yilin discusses Buddhism separately from religious leaders such as God and Allah, because Jiangnan Yilin does not think that Buddhism is just a religion, at least it is essentially different from other religions. Because Buddhism does not advocate or claim that the Buddha is unique, nor does it claim that everything in our world is created by a Buddha, but that everyone can become a Buddha. Since everyone can become a Buddha, there is no question of which Buddha is more advanced and who is the core.
Buddha has the supreme sense of justice, but he can't do the scourge, such as killing people at will or giving benefits to others, which means that Buddha has no right to kill human beings. Life is like sailing a boat. Buddha can show you the direction, tell you how to row and where to row, but it can't do it for us. Finally, I have to ferry myself. Otherwise, with the infinite divine power of the Buddha and the little divine power exerted by his old man's house, all of us would not have reached the Elysium? Why are you still struggling in the endless sea of suffering? Therefore, the Buddha can't be the object of the scourge.
5. Other mysterious forces
I won't describe this for the same reason.
Now you may be a little confused. It seems that all the candidates you think may be the executors of the scourge have been excluded by me.
The reason why Jiangnan Yilin spent a lot of time discussing the above problems is actually that it has a little skill to facilitate the later discussion, which everyone will know later.
Having said that, I can explain the viewpoint of Jiangnan Yilin.
The arbiter of the scourge is a law or a rule, which is a unique, absolute and universally applicable rule.
Therefore, the first two questions in the article actually become one question.
This law, a forest in the south of the Yangtze River, has actually been repeatedly mentioned in previous articles, that is, the law of cause and effect, that is, the truth that Sakyamuni realized under the bodhi tree that year, that is, the truth of "origin": everything is born because of its origin and ends because of its fate.
There are two basic laws of cause and effect:
1. Cause and effect cannot cancel each other out.
In other words, you can't say that if I kill one person and save another, I'll be fine. You will be punished for killing people, and you will be rewarded and benefited for saving people. These are two different things.
2. Cause and effect cannot be eliminated.
In other words, as long as you plant karma, regardless of good or evil, as long as you have "fate" (fate is like external conditions, environment and other catalytic factors), it will inevitably produce corresponding results. You can stop the birth of this fruit by stopping the "outer edge" 1000 to 10000, but it can't destroy the career you planted. As long as the conditions are met, this will produce corresponding results no matter how long it takes. This is the so-called failure to report, and the time has not yet come.
We all know that people also have a sixth sense or a sixth sense. In fact, people are far more than six senses. In fact, people have eight senses, namely, eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body and mind (that is, consciousness), seventh sense and eighth sense.
The significance and differences of these eight senses are not specifically described here. You can search online. Here's just one thing:
You can think of the eighth consciousness as a fixed "cause and effect" account book that plays a role in the six divisions of the wheel of karma (whether you are a person or a ghost in your next life? ), whether you do good or bad things, it will be recorded, called karma. When a person dies, whether he is an adult, a ghost or an animal, there is karma. The eighth sense doesn't know what is good and what is evil (in fact, the so-called good and evil are both reflections of our own consciousness, which is a good proof, because the same behavior is given different meanings of good and evil in different ethnic groups. What you think is good, others think it is evil). Its judgment rule is very simple and clear, that is, as you sow, you reap.
Therefore, there is a saying: you can't take it with you, only you can take it with you.
Now let's go back and answer the original question: will leaking secrets be a scourge?
Now the answer to this question is simple.
Whether you will encounter the scourge depends on the cause and effect caused by your actions. You have planted a reason in the open-air machine itself. If it is a good cause, there will naturally be good results. If it is a bad cause, it will naturally lead to bad consequences.
The above theory has been said for a long time. Now let's give an example:
Everyone knows the famous historical prophecy "Returning to the North" (of course, there are many such prophecies in human history). Since its author can see the rise and fall of history after hundreds of thousands of years, why should he write those secrets as implicit and obscure predictions instead of writing them directly and clearly for future generations to see clearly?
Jiangnan Yilin understands that they are really afraid of suffering from the scourge. Why? For example, if the emperor at that time or later emperors knew that the people who wanted to seize his country in the future had a certain surname, would he kill all the people with that surname? As long as you look at history, you will know that this kind of thing is not uncommon, and it is entirely possible. In this way, the author will create a heinous crime invisibly, and its retribution is self-evident. For another example, suppose you do have some magical power to know exactly where rare treasures are buried, and then you post this information on the Internet. Will people in that place where treasures are hidden be hurt or hurt? Will everyone fight for it? Knowing that there may be such consequences, dare you tell the secret casually? These possible consequences are entirely your fault.
Let's give a counterexample:
Many countries in the world have weather forecasting departments, which forecast weather conditions such as tsunamis and earthquakes every year. What a surprise the tsunami and earthquake are! Aren't those meteorological scientists and weathermen afraid of being condemned for revealing such a big secret? But look again, which meteorologist or forecaster died because of it?
Newton, for example, discovered gravity, and Yuan Longping discovered the secret of increasing rice production (like the secret of the creator). These discoveries have changed the lives of thousands of people in Qian Qian. Isn't this a secret?
Compared with these important secrets, personal activities such as Zhouyi divination and eight-character prediction are just dwarfed.
Of course, if you look at other people's horoscopes and then use what you know to do bad things (for example, if you know that a girl is infatuated with innocence, you will take the opportunity to cheat or use horoscopes to exert a bad influence, and so on). ), obviously also by the so-called scourge. In short, "having an affair in a dark room is like electricity." Don't think that you have done something bad, no one knows.
There may be so-called materialists, who find it hard to accept what past lives called the six divisions in The Cycle of Cause and Effect (because of the results instilled from childhood), but they are irrefutable about the theory of cause and effect: Do you think your actions will not produce a result? Which of your achievements or results has no reason? As the saying goes, every fruit has a cause, but no fruit has no cause.
As a matter of fact, some articles about cause and effect have been written in front of a forest in the south of the Yangtze River, and I will post them here again. Interested friends can review it. For those friends who think this article is superstitious, I am not prepared to refute and defend it. Everyone cherishes it. (The Exploration and Discussion of Fate Part II: A Metaphor)
