How Buddhism changes destiny II.

However, the old monk revealed that Buddhism does not look at fortune telling or fortune telling, but "physiognomy" is also related to Buddhism. For example, the Buddha has 32 phases, and the Buddha's lover is the result of his past cultivation of goodness and accumulation of blessings; As long as the average person has one of them, Ford karma must be enough. Buddha's nose is solemn, and it is tall and straight. Many people have had surgery and rhinoplasty to keep their noses straight. Although the nose is solemn, it is artificial, not cultivated. Some people like to cut double eyelids, thin face and change their appearance in various artificial ways, but because it is unnatural, it has many side effects. There are thirty-two phases and eighty kinds of goodness in Buddha, all of which are obtained by practicing the good law. The so-called Buddha is not only solemn but also full of wealth and wisdom. Most people pay attention to appearance and only look at the surface; Careful observation shows that some people are good-looking, but they may not have good luck and a lot of troubles in this life. This is because they don't have good Buddhism in their hearts, and they can't practice Fu Hui extensively at ordinary times. Even if you look good, there is no good news to enjoy. So we must cultivate kindness in life to change our destiny. Buddhism tells us that on the one hand, we should cultivate goodness, on the other hand, we should review and reflect on ourselves, so as to be pure, compassionate and soft. Even though our appearance is poor, we will be kind, kind and noble, and we will get good help. It depends on our own efforts to change ourselves from the heart. (10) phase is the achievement of previous karma, from which we can see a person's good fortune; If you haven't repaired it in the past, you can work hard from now on, which can not only change your fate and good luck, but also change your appearance. Historically, three people have entered this gate, namely Deng Tong, Zhou Yafu and Pei Du. It stands to reason that all three people should starve to death, but the first two people starved to death, and Pei Du did not starve to death. In the Han Dynasty, there was an official, Deng Tong, who was a doctor. He often waited on Emperor Wendi. Deng Tong was a courtier, specially pleasing the Emperor of China, and was very popular with the Emperor. One day, a fortune teller told Deng Tong, "Your tattoo entrance will die of poverty and hunger in the future. Deng Tong reported this to Wendi, and Wendi replied, "I have the right to be hungry. If I make you rich, you will be rich. If I let you starve, you will starve. " Therefore, Emperor Wen of Han carried Tongshan in Sichuan to Deng Tong. This mountain produces copper, and Deng General uses copper to cast money, which can be said to be the richest in the world. After Wendi died, his son Han Jingdi succeeded to the throne. Knowing that it was a traitor, Emperor Jing of Han Dynasty promulgated a decree that only the state could make coins after he ascended the throne, took the copper coins for himself, violated the national law, confiscated all the property, removed his official position, put him in prison, and starved to death after three meals. The second is Zhou Yafu, a brilliant minister. The emperor at that time was jealous of his fame and talent, and even worried that he would usurp the throne in the future. So he was put in prison on trumped-up charges. Soon, Zhou Yafu died of hunger strike. There was a prime minister named Pei Du in the Tang Dynasty. At that time, when he was preparing to take the Jinshi exam, he met a fortune teller and said to him, "You don't have to take the exam, you will definitely fail. Even if you are admitted, you will starve to death in the future. " "Pei Du Buddhist, believe that everything has a cause and effect. One day he went to the temple to burn incense and worship Buddha, and then went to the gazebo to rest. I saw a jade belt on the stone table of the pavilion. This jade belt is very valuable and should be worn by North Korean officials. Pei Du thought the host must be very anxious, so he sat in the pavilion and waited for the host. After a long time, a woman came to the pavilion in tears and looked around nervously. Pedro asked the woman if she had dropped anything. The woman replied, "I put a jade belt in the pavilion and took a rest. Because I was busy with my journey, I forgot." It took me more than ten miles to remember that the jade belt was still in the pavilion. This jade belt is very important to me and my family! It turned out that this woman's husband was a North Korean official and was falsely accused of imprisonment. This jade belt can rehabilitate unjust imprisonment and save the lives of a family of five. Pei Du heard the reason, confirmed that the woman was the owner, and returned the jade belt to her. A few days later, Pei Du happened to meet the fortuneteller again. The fortune teller was surprised and said, "Your luck has completely changed. You must have accumulated a lot of virtues. In the future, you will have enough wealth, under one person and above ten thousand people. " "Soon, Pei Du took the exam in Beijing and got into the Jinshi. Later, as expected, he became prime minister and enjoyed a long life. Because of compassion, because of cultivation, because of accumulation, the fate of life has changed. This proves that Buddhism says that fate can be changed, but it depends on yourself, not others. (12) Fate depends on cultivating wisdom, and it changes from karma. Some people think that changing a person's position, feng shui or name can change a person's life. However, if this can change your destiny, why can't fortune tellers change their own destiny? If changing the name can make you rich, then the person who changed the name will already be rich. Fortune-telling is a philosophy and an experience, because faces can reveal a person's heart. Therefore, the change of mentality is the most important. There was a holy monk in the Tang Dynasty, a Zen master who knew how to tell fortune. After enlightenment, I said a few words: "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 thought. He said that a person's height does not represent the rich and the poor, one foot can see the fate of this life, and a three-inch nose can better see the rich and the poor and the length of life; A three-inch nose is not as good as a heart, and the heart is the most important. The good and evil of one's thoughts directly affect the whole life and one's own destiny. Understand this truth, life will find a bright road. No matter in the company, family, Dojo or any living place, we can do it according to the two principles of cultivating goodness, accumulating goodness and cherishing goodness. There are more and more blessings, and there is no end. (13) Life should cultivate wisdom as well as happiness. There are blessings and fortunes. If you don't know how to make rational use of them, you will spend a lot of time eating, drinking and having fun, creating bad karma, although fortune will easily lead to corruption. There are some pets in society. Their owners hold them every day, dress them up and send them to beauty salons. They live a better life than ordinary people. However, after all, all beings are animals. Although they were blessed in their previous lives, they did not have the wisdom to distinguish right from wrong, so they did evil things and fell. Therefore, we should cultivate wisdom when compiling blessings. With wisdom, we can properly use blessings, increase blessings and avoid depravity. Wisdom is different from knowledge. Knowledge is acquired and accumulated through learning. For example, science, astronomy, geography and other majors are all knowledge. And wisdom is born, not acquired from the outside world; Review and reflect from time to time to see if there are any mistakes in your heart. Are you greedy, heartless and infatuated? If there is, then correct it, slowly transform your habits, and let this mind calm like water, without dirt like a mirror, and your wisdom will be presented. (14) The troubles of greed, jealousy and delusion in the heart are dirt. Because of greed for money, greed, greed, greed, greed, greed, greed, greed, greed, greed, greed, greed, greed, greed, greed, greed, greed, greed, greed, greed, greed, greed, greed, greed, greed, greed, greed, greed. For example, monthly salary is hard earned and part of wealth, so it is not greed. On the contrary, taking more money is greed. Even if you get the money, it will be lost from other places in the future. Cause and effect pass III, past cause, present fruit; The cause now, the result in the future. If you want to be rich and famous, you must work hard from your career; Because, if nothing else, it is to cherish and cultivate the blessings. There must be blessings for people; People who have Ford can't steal the money they earn. Without Ford, even if you make a lot of money, you can't keep anything. People's blessings are different, and the realm they see outside is different. According to Buddhist scriptures, two friends crossed a mountain forest. The person walking in front saw a snake in the tree and ran away quickly. What the people behind see is a string of money hanging on the tree; Without Ford, even money was regarded as a snake. Goode also said: "When gold is transported, it becomes iron, and when it comes, iron is like gold. The season is full of reasons, and everything is smooth sailing; The season has passed and everything is not going well. Therefore, in peacetime, it is easy to achieve something if you want to cultivate wisdom and wisdom. (15) Everyone has his own wisdom, and a pure and calm heart leads to a high degree of wisdom. It is mentioned in the Buddhist scriptures that "everyone has Buddha nature and everyone can become a Buddha". Buddha's nature is our awareness, and the public's listening to Buddha's dharma is the heart of thinking about the spirit and knowing the spirit. If this consciousness is disturbed, you will lose discipline and can't see the real situation clearly. Therefore, the Dharma emphasizes "seeing nature clearly and regarding nature as Buddha". This pure heart and clear awareness can produce wisdom. There are two principles in doing things: one is to cultivate happiness; One is Xiuhui. Know how to distinguish right from wrong, good and evil, be knowledgeable and knowledgeable, but also know how to review and reflect, feel at ease, and meditate; Working hard in this direction is to cultivate wisdom. Being able to cultivate fuhui is a bodhisattva, and the worldly law is the birth law. " Buddhism is in the world and inseparable from the world "; Buddhism is not far in the sky, nor in the west, nor is it where Buddhism will become a Buddha. Buddhism in daily life, the mind is observing. The so-called "water can carry a boat, but it can also overturn it", and water refers to our heart water; When the water is calm, the ship can move forward smoothly and reach the other side smoothly. In case of storms and stormy waves, the ship will not only fail to move forward smoothly, but may even capsize and even lose its life. The same is true of heart water; With good thoughts, good words and good deeds, this life will become brighter and brighter. This is "water can carry a boat and also overturn it." "On the contrary, I always want to get wealth by speculating, taking the side door, cheating and stealing, and even taking advantage. This mentality must be getting darker and darker, bringing disaster to yourself. This is "water can carry a boat, but it can also overturn it". "Causality is a truth, and everything in this world is a manifestation of karma. Causality is a rule, not a superstition. No matter how far technology develops, it is inseparable from this principle. The karma mentioned in Buddhism is not for us to passively sit here and resign ourselves to fate, but for everything, we must rely on our own efforts. Without the efforts of local authorities, we can never achieve the desired karma. For example, if you work in a company, you won't be late or leave early, which is why; I work hard and seriously every day, that's why; If you keep working hard for this, your future career will definitely develop. This is cause and effect. Students who are studying don't wait until the exam to prepare hard, but usually work hard. If they don't skip class, review, listen, write and remember more, they can work hard from the cause and do well in the exam in the future. This is causality. (17) Success is in your own hands, and failure is also in your own hands. It is mentioned in Buddhism that being a bodhisattva and a demon is your own; It is our original intention to live in pure land and go to hell. It is a bright road to realize this idea and live in mindfulness and kindness forever. At this rate, life will become more and more blessed, wiser and healthier. The so-called "water can carry a boat, but it can also overturn it." "Water refers to our thoughts. In this society, people are interdependent and interdependent; To gain wealth and success through mutual assistance and cooperation, we should know each other, be grateful to each other and give back to each other. In modern times, some people have wrong ideas. In pursuit of utility, people use each other, attack each other, be selfish and hinder each other, which leads to many disputes and dangers. This is that water can carry a boat and also overturn it. Our philosophy is to achieve each other's career and achievements on the basis of interdependence and mutual help. This is that water can carry a boat and also overturn it. With the correct concept, life will be full of hope, and the more you go to the light, the pure land will be everywhere, and you will be lucky and safe. ( 18)
