Calculating karma
there are three kinds of karma: Net karma, good karma and evil karma
1. Net instry refers to: doing things without return, just want to help you, think that helping you is helping yourself, and you are very happy! So, this is the instry of repairing and cleaning. If you practice karma, you can become a Buddha and gain boundless mana and supreme wisdom
2. Good karma refers to helping others and satisfying their own desires and needs. In this way, it is good karma. In the next reincarnation, you can enjoy great blessings
3. Evil karma refers to hurting others in order to satisfy one's own desires and needs. In this way, the result is that evil karma accumulates more and more. If you don't know how to repent, after the death of the body, the soul will go to hell and suffer to pay the debt!
is the element of causality. Karma refers to the collection of results caused by one's past, present or future behaviors. The results of karma will dominate the present and future experiences. Therefore, one's life experiences and others' experiences are influenced by one's own behaviors. Therefore, indivials have the possibility and responsibility for their own lives. Karma is also the cause of reincarnation, so karma is not only the result of this world, but also extends to the afterlife
karma is the most important, difficult and difficult to explain in Buddhist thought, so it is the most misunderstood one. The thought of karma influenced the whole Asian civilization. Most Asians take karma as the ideological basis of their moral norms and religious beliefs. The theory of karma plays a very important role in the whole Buddhism, because the foundation of Buddhism is stone architecture. The theory of karma is extremely difficult to understand and explain, because the depth of karma is limitless and beyond the ability of human wisdom. Karmic thought is often misunderstood, because it is extremely difficult to systematically analyze and introce it. So far, I don't think there is a satisfactory karmic theory in any Buddhist books. The following is a brief introction to this very basic, but very complex and difficult Buddhist thought
karma is called karma in Sanskrit. The root of "karma" is "Kar", which means to do or do something. So karma originally means work or action. However, the "karma" in the minds of Buddhists today represents an extremely complex and multifaceted thought. In this multifaceted thought, the most fundamental is to say: "karma is the law of cause and effect that controls all phenomena in nature and moral world." This definition seems simple, but if we further review it, we will find the extreme complexity and ambiguity of karmic thinking. For the sake of understanding, this paper discusses the thought of karma from six perspectives
karma is in the simplest words: "good is rewarded with good, and evil is rewarded with evil. It's not that you don't repay, and the day has not come.". In farming terms, karma can be interpreted as: if you sow good seeds, you will have a good harvest; if you sow bad seeds, you will get a bad harvest
in scientific terms, karma is the law of cause and effect, and every cause has a result. In addition, it can also be called the law of moral causality. The law of moral causality should be in the field of morality, just like the law of motion in the field of physics
the explanation of karma in faju Sutra is that the mind is the leader of good and evil karma. If your words and actions are based on the heart of good or evil, then happiness or pain (unhappiness) will follow you, just like an ox cart follows an ox hoof and never leaves
karma is a kind of action, and there is a kind of motive force in the life body, which is called instinct tendency or consciousness. This inherent habit promotes every kind of consciousness, including psychology and physiology. When it moves, it becomes behavior. The repetition of this behavior is habit, which becomes his personality. In Buddhism, this process is called karma
as far as the ultimate meaning of karma is concerned, it has both good and evil. It can be mental activity or will action. Buddha said, "karma is willpower.". In this way, karma is a process rather than an entity. It is also a kind of behavior, ability and strength. Some people explain this power as "behavioral influence", which is our own fault. All the bitterness and happiness that a man experiences is the result of his own body, mouth and mind. Success, failure, happiness and sorrow are all created by our body, mouth and mind.
when I was a freshman, I also had your experience. The more I knew a lot of truth, the more evil thoughts I had in my heart. The more you know you shouldn't think about it, the more you have to think about it. You're so tired. For example, when you know the five commandments, when you see people, you think you shouldn't beat them, when you see things, you think you shouldn't steal them. In fact, when you don't know the five commandments, you never want to beat or steal them
at that time, the way to treat the young man was to turn his mind around. When the evil thoughts came out, he would turn his mind to other places, such as reading his favorite books or playing video games. When you can't change your mind, you have to let it go as long as you don't mean to
in fact, this is caused by the rebound effect of your mind after you are too perfect and too strict with yourself
relax yourself, and this phenomenon will graally improve. As for whether the idea will be recorded in the eighth sense, you can't manage it, and you don't have to
I've been through this phenomenon for more than two years. One day, I suddenly found that my karma was empty, and when I saw that I had no idea, everything disappeared
as for karma, when you see the Buddha together, you will receive whatever karma you should receive, and you can afford it, that is, there will be no more confusion at that time
let's send you the verse of vaisha corpse Buddha (the 998 Buddha in the past):
the body is born out of nothingness,
it's like illusory images
there is no illusory mind, and there is no place for both sin and happiness
through this verse, you can see the Tathagata at the moment
I hope to remind you
I hope you will see the Buddha Dharma soon
Add: just read the name of the Buddha you trust most in your mind. If you believe in Amitabha the most (in the name of anyone you trust the most, even if you say "God"), read him. The key lies in the word "letter"
when you read it, relax your whole body and silently read one sentence after another. Listen to every word you read with your ears. It seems that it can cause internal resonance in your head. At this time, you should be able to forget your so-called "evil thoughts"
if you can continue to read like this, you may feel the loss of your body. A little deeper, you may not be able to breathe. Even directly into the "empty" realm
if you think of "Buddha" as a relaxing "play", you can read it easily and comfortably. Of course, the effect will be better<
the verse of bhishefu Buddha (a solemn statue of robbing Qi):
under the guise of the four great Buddhas, the mind has no cause of birth and the state of being
if there is no intention in the front, there will be no happiness or sin
there is nothing in the world, and ordinary people disturb it. Take a look at the Sutra of the sixth patriarch's altar. Every sentence directly refers to the original mind, that is, self nature, or Dharma body Tathagata. The altar Sutra is relatively easy to understand
have a good life.
Deep karma means great influence on the present and the future
Business is behavior. It can be divided into three categories, namely body instry, oral instry and mental instrykarma: the influence of body, mouth and mind on the present and future
this is Sanskrit, Sanskrit, which is a language of Indo Iranian branch of Indo European language family, and also one of the oldest languages of Indo European language family. Like Latin, Sanskrit has become a special term of academic and religious nature

I. karma theory is the most important, difficult, difficult to explain and complex in Buddhist thought. The thought of karma influenced the whole Asian civilization
most Asians take karma as the ideological basis of their moral norms and religious beliefs. The theory of karma plays a very important role in the whole Buddhism, because the foundation of Buddhism is stone architecture. The theory of karma is extremely difficult to understand and explain. The depth of karma is limitless, and science can't deal with it
1: either they are not good-looking, their wives are hot tempered, and their moral character is extreme
2: they have no ability to be gentle outside. It seems that when a gentleman comes home, he will vent his anger and roar
and he is more impulsive
so people who beat their wives are not very good at all
About auspicious lying. After a long time of practice and experience
there are more or less omissions or errors in the methods of discovering Internet
is now reorganized. Hope to help the netizens who are predestined to see this article
auspicious lying to achieve high quality sleep must be able to sleep
"lying on the right flank with beard is named auspicious lying"
When sleeping, lie on the right side with your legs closed and slightly bent
2. This is very important. Many people only know how to put their right hand on their face, but they don't know how to do it
correction: right thumb is wrongly placed behind the earlobe bead. It should be placed in the position of hearing palace Listen to the palace is to open and then close the mouth, ear movement that sink in this position), hand to keep relaxed
if the hand is put wrongly, the sleep effect is not very good
3. Put your left hand gently on the outside of your left thigh
in this way, your physiological Qi and blood will extend from the back up, even if you are sleeping, you are still in a state of hard work. The tongue is on the top of the palate, just like Xiuding. The tongue is on the top of the palate, and the top of the head is against it. Make a pillow with your right hand, put it under your head, and put your left hand on your body. It's auspicious to lie on your right flank
sleep in this way, can make the body stable, no turmoil, will not sleep too deep at night, no nightmares and so on. There are many advantages in this Scripture. As far as science is concerned, right flank lying also has its scientific basis. The mouth of our stomach is on the right side, lying on the right flank. We can put all the things in the stomach into the intestines along the mouth. It will not accumulate in the stomach, and it will make the stomach unobstructed
lying on the back with face up is prone to greed; Prone face down, easy to cause anger; Lying on the left side increases infatuation. All kinds of lying on the right side will lead to all kinds of ignorance troubles. Only lying on the right side is the most meritorious
there are four virtues:
first, the body is not relaxed, and will not have the idea and instry of inferior to the law e to scattered
Second, without losing mindfulness, the lion is the king of all animals, and we will not lose mindfulness in sleep. We will not forget the mindfulness of practicing good Dharma when we stop sleeping
thirdly, it can keep alert all the time instead of falling into deep sleep and deep lethargy
Fourth, we can't have nightmares and often have auspicious dreams
(1) the Buddhist tradition believes that "one cause always proces many fruits"; For example, one kills after drinking, which is a karmic cause. After waking up, a man felt his conscience disturbed. He not only killed one person for no reason, but also his wife, family members, children and general were helpless. This extreme pain of conscience is the first result of the cause of murder. Soon after the incident, a man was arrested and sentenced to prison. This is the second result. Therefore, the third result is that the career and future of a person are all written off, and the family is also broken. In addition to this chain reaction, the killing will also bring revenge, sickness and short life to the victims in the next life, which is called abnormal fruit in Buddhism
when reading Buddhist scriptures and discussing karma, modern people may feel that it is exaggerated. For example, it is said in a Sutra that ring the robbery, a man used a few grains of rice to sprinkle the Buddha's body as a token of support and respect when the Buddha passed the street. After a number of robberies, this man felt the reward of the king of the wheel because of the merit of supporting these grains of rice. He was the Lord of the world, with countless land, castles, wives, jewels, cars and so on. As is often said in the Buddhist scriptures, the retribution of evil deeds is also incredible There is a story in the Sutra of wise men and fools. Once upon a time, a Brahman insulted bhikkhu and cursed bhikkhu in the name of beasts because of his mother's instigation. Because of this evil reason, I have lived for many generations. I feel that I have a fish body and the head of a hundred animals. Abetting this Brahman's mother also falls into infernal hell. There are many such stories in the Buddhist scriptures. Modern people may think that such stories are just moralizing words to persuade people to do good. If we exaggerate the consequences of good and evil, we can make people stop evil and turn to good. All of them belong to religious pragmatism, which does not necessarily mean that the truth is true. There is a folk story in Tibet. Once upon a time, an old woman went to a Dharma meeting to listen to the great Lama tell the story of karma. After that, the old lady went forward to the great Lama and said, "when it comes to karma, if the karma is great according to the Buddhist Scripture, not only you, the great Lama, can become a Buddha, but even I, an ordinary old lady, can become a Buddha. When it comes to the retribution of evil karma, not only my old lady will go to hell, but also your great Lama This is an amazing story. It is a heartfelt resonance in the hearts of the Tibetan Buddhist people caused by the intuition of humanism. Although this passage is full of sympathy, it is not necessary to agree with the central idea of employability. For in karmic phenomena, the amount of fruit is often several times greater than the amount of cause. As mentioned in the previous example of homicide is. The Buddhist Scripture also has its philosophical basis for small causes to proce great results, which will be discussed later. From the perspective of religion, this kind of words can not only influence religious behavior and exert the purpose of pragmatism, but also have deeper symbolic significance. When the Buddhist Scriptures tell the stories of karma, there are often records of people talking with animals and other animals. In ZA Bao Zang Jing, Bai Xiang Xiang's story of raising his parents affirms that "all animals in ancient times could talk to people.". Today, it seems that such stories, apart from being symbolic and instructive, can hardly be admitted as true facts The name "metaphor" in ZA Bi Yu Jing also shows that the text has symbolic meaning. Even so, the record that small causes can proce great results in the Buddhist scriptures is a certain truth from the perspective of employability philosophy. The thought of karma is "the same kind of correspondence", not "the same amount of correspondence". As for the phenomenon of employment force causality, the quantity of result is often larger than that of cause. Buddhists often use natural phenomena to explain this. For example, a grain of wheat bears more than 100 grains of fruit? I remember a magazine said that the trillion dollar Manhattan Island in the center of New York City is said to have been bought from a red Indian for two dollars 200 years ago. Of course, the value of Manhattan Island today is out of proportion to the price of two yuan that year. However, some people say that if two yuan were deposited in the bank 200 years ago and calculated by compound interest, it will become an astronomical number 200 years later. The fact that the quantity of fruit is greater than the quantity of fruit is also very common in the biological world, such as the continuous division and growth of cells and the formation of various indivials: a spermatozoa combines with the egg and divides into two and then into four, thus continuously dividing into the human body, with trillions of cells. If the cause of a cell can form the fruit of hundreds of millions of cells, the fact that the quantity of the fruit is greater than the cause may have been a common sense in the universe
therefore, when we read Buddhist scriptures, we should not only understand the religious purpose and symbolic meaning, but also understand the philosophical basis behind the symbolic meaning. We should not judge it as grotesque because of its strange appearance
(2) although one cause can proce many fruits, karma cannot proce infinite fruits. A spermatozoa cell can divide and grow into a human body, containing trillions of different cells, but the reason for this spermatozoa is that when a human body is completed, its fruit is complete. This person's children born in the future should be counted from another causal relationship
therefore, this primordial spermatozoa has only indirect but no direct relationship with its offspring. Therefore, one cause can proce many fruits, but not unlimited fruits
in other words, the limited cause can not proce infinite results, otherwise it will conflict with the principle of "corresponding to the same kind". The religious significance of limited cause can not proce infinite fruit is that no matter how great the evil deeds of all living beings are, they will not bring infinite bitter fruit. Therefore, Buddhism does not admit that there is an eternal hell. Even the longest and most terrible inferno is not eternal. In the same way, no matter how great the good deeds with leakage are, they can not make life into eternal Heaven
therefore, the heaven in the three realms of traditional Buddhism has several levels, and it is not eternal
in addition to the "land of constant solitude" or the pure land of Bodhisattva, the pure land of other incarnation Buddhas is not eternal. Because the former is the infinite result of the infinite cause, while the latter is still the scope of each limited cause and effect
there are different opinions on whether Christian heaven or God's kingdom is a place or a realm. If it is a place with infinite life, it may also make sense. Because it is acknowledged that God is infinite, then the limited people may rely on the grace of infinite God, and may make the limited reach infinity and enter the eternal kingdom of heaven< However, Buddhism is quite strict about the corresponding principles of the same kind; Therefore, we only admit that only infinite causes can proce infinite results. Therefore, the relative good deeds with persistence and ability, no matter how great, can only be regarded as the good deeds with leakage and can not lead to liberation. Only the good deeds that transcend the ability and are relative to the self can be regarded as belonging to the infinite scope, and can proce infinite or eternal results of liberation. On the origin of thought, Buddhism emphasizes self-reliance, which may be closely related to the corresponding thoughts of the same kind of karma.
Amitabha < H2 > < H2 >
< H2 >
< H2 > < H2 > ask: is the so-called karma a force that can't be seen by the naked eye, but can really lead people to receive the news
master Jingkong answered: Yes, karma is invisible to the naked eye, but can be seen by the pure heart. Buddha told us that there are two kinds of karma, one is called Yin ye, the other is called man Ye. Yin Ye is to guide you to which way to reincarnate, so when a person dies, he will change his body, and your soul will find another body. Find a body that you can't be the master yourself. Karma leads you. What is this karma? It's all about persistence. Persistent in the past life, that person I like him very much, that person I hate him very much. Like very much, went to his home to reincarnate; There is also a kind of hate to go, why? I'll go to his house for revenge
children have four kinds of affinity with their parents: repaying kindness, complaining, collecting debts and paying debts. Also, it seems that he has been robbed of his wealth by others. He is not reconciled. When he dies, he will be reborn in his family, or he will be his son or grandson. In the future, all his property will be returned to you. What he earns will also be given to you as interest. If you see through the cause and effect of the third generation, you feel meaningless. We don't want what others owe us. We should return what we owe to others as soon as possible. In the future, there will be no traction power in the six paths, and it can be separated from the six paths
manye is that the Buddha often teaches us in the Scriptures to cultivate and give alms, to get wealth by giving alms, to get wisdom by giving alms, and to live a long life by fearless giving alms. Therefore, although we all have the same personal status, each person's life is different in wealth, wealth, poverty, health and longevity. This is full employment. These are the three kinds of almsgiving. Almsgiving is to serve others. The greater the scope of your service, the greater your blessings. For a family service, the blessing is small; To serve the society, good news is great; If for the country, for the world, then your blessing is even greater! Therefore, the result of practicing these three kinds of alms wholeheartedly. Therefore, when we see a rich man, we need not envy him. We need to know what he learned in his past life. We don't have such wealth. We didn't practice in the past. If we want to think about it, we need to practice more; If you practice actively, work hard, and don't wait for the next life, the result of this life will be before now
look at the four precepts of Le fan and the story of Yu Jingyi meeting the kitchen god. They are all about making a new life in this life, turning over their own destiny and making progress bravely. Before the next life, the result of this life is now. How many times have I told you the Scriptures? I'm also telling you from my own experience. I've been a fortune teller since I was a child. I'm only 45 years old. I'm 80 years old now, and I've lived 35 more years. I've lived 20 more years than yuan Chaofan. There is no wealth in life, so I came out to preach when I was just learning Buddhism. The first 15 years before I became a monk were miserable, and my life was very hard. The teacher taught me to give as much as I have. The more I give, the more I give. After the age of 70, it's really a strange thing that someone will send you what you want and how much money you want
