The Cause and Effect of Liao Zhai

Chapter 11: cause and effect

"All sentient beings in the world have Dharma due to predestined conditions. The reason why they are like this is the destiny of heaven. They have planted a cause, and they only come to bear the effect today. Karma, destiny, even if you help today What can they do? For them, it's just being in this bitter and evil world, and struggling for some more time.

   You should know that our Taoism practice is to avoid the world, respect the destiny, and rule by doing nothing.

This is not what you said, doing nothing, doing everything, but not doing anything. When we try to change our destiny and change their cause and effect, it also means that we ourselves will also be contaminated with cause and effect, which is always complicated. Once Karma is entangled, spiritual consciousness is blinded, we can only fall into this boundless world in the end and become a dust in cause and effect. "

   The old Taoist took a sip and said with a sigh on his face.

   "As the saying goes, destiny is impermanent and manpower is poor. It is not that we do not do it, but that we are unable to do it."

   "Can't cause and effect really change?"

  "Who knows, the causal cycle is the most magical, it can be blocked, it can be changed, but just like thousands of rivers, they will eventually converge to the sea.

   My generation cultivator, isn’t it just to jump out of this causal cycle and be able to control his own destiny?

   But this road is so difficult! "

   After hearing the words of the old Taoist priest, Wang Musheng thought of another person who had the same question, but that person gave him a completely different answer, that is, his master who is still on earth.

   I was very young that year, and the village was still very backward. Although it was powered on, it was very unstable. There would be power outages in the windy and rainy weather.

   So at that time, every family in the village had candles in their homes.

   Wang Musheng remembered that it was a very hot and rainy night. Because of successive heavy rains, the whole village had been without electricity for several days.

  Because there were very few entertainments at that time, Wang Musheng, who was bored, could only look at the flickering candle fire that night and stared in a daze.

   At that time, a moth suddenly appeared in the house. Wang Musheng quickly stopped the moth when he wanted to pounce on the candlelight.

   But this moth, no matter how many times Wang Musheng stopped it, it would fly again to the candlelight. This made Wang Musheng very strange, and he turned around and asked the master who was meditating.

   "Master, why does this moth always want to rush into the candlelight! Is he stupid? Didn't he know that he was burned to death when he rushed in?"

   "Hehe, Mu Sheng! The moths are fighting the fire, not because of stupidity, but because of karma. It is forgiving."

   "Cause and effect, what is that?"

   That was the first time he heard the word cause and effect from his master.

   "Cause and effect are nothing, he is everything, he is the foundation of thousands of ways, the context of the movement of heaven and earth, the manifestation of Tao, etc., he is everything."

   "Don't understand?"

   "Haha, that's because Mu Sheng is still young, and you will understand when Mu Sheng grows up a bit."

   "But, Master, you still didn't tell me why this moth always rushes into the candlelight?"

"Okay, okay, the master will tell Xiao Musheng, we are in this world! There are many people who are born with eyesight and have a pair of bright eyes, but they turn a blind eye to many sins and sufferings. Darkness breeds.

   So Dadao, that is, God is very angry, saying that I give you a pair of eyes that can yearn for the light, but you use them to watch the darkness, then you go to the darkness. "

   "So God turned them into moths, right."

   Wang Musheng said excitedly.

"Yes, Mu Sheng, do you know? Before the moth turned into a moth, it was just the weakest and ugly insect. Although they yearned for the light, they could only hide in the shadows, because they only need to show up. Will be caught by the birds and eaten.

After they grow wings and become moths, they can fly. They will rush to the light more desperately. Even if it is candlelight, they will not hesitate at all. They would rather be buried in the sea of ​​fire for the light. in. "

   "God is so bad, they are disobedient, just beat them up, why do you embarrass them so much and burn them to death in the end!"

   "Hehe, this is cause and effect, because they have done bad things, they will be punished and bear the current cause."

   That was Wang Musheng, who had a clear understanding of the word cause and effect for the first time.

   "Then, can't this cause and effect be changed? We can't help this moth, I don't want him to be burned to death."

"Why not?"

Speaking of Wang Musheng’s master, he placed a lampshade on the candlestick in front of Wang Musheng. Because of the protection of the lampshade, although the moth was still fluttering on the lampshade, it would no longer be burned to death. Is in danger.

"The Great Dao Fifty, the Heavenly Acts 49, Heaven is the most common, but there is also great love. He has left a ray of life for all creatures. UU reading www.uukanshu.com is reincarnation. We can forgive sins by ourselves. In the end, you will be detached, have great freedom, and have great freedom.

   And today, the sky let this moth fly into our home and let our Xiao Musheng see it, so why can't it be, cause and effect are destined, let us save this moth! "

   After listening to the master's words, Wang Musheng thought a lot. Looking at the moths that kept hitting the lampshade, Wang Musheng was in a daze that night.

   On the next day, Wang Musheng found his master, and wanted to let the master teach him to practice cultivation. On that day, he officially came into contact with the Great Karma Sutra.

   "Dao Master, since the heaven has brought us here, does that mean that the heaven wants us to save them?"

   Wang Musheng looked in front of him, the old Taoist with a sad face, and said what the former master had told him.

"Ok!!!"

   Wang Musheng's words shook the old Taoist's mind severely. If all this is destined by God, then God wants to let himself come here for what he wants to do.

   Then if you really come here by yourself, it is also destined, then what is your own cultivation and your own efforts for?

   What about my own existence! A puppet controlled by heaven and earth.

   Or in other words, this world is originally a puppet show under heaven.

   That own existence, what is it?

  …….

"No, no, there is a problem with your statement. If you follow your statement, aren't we a puppet controlled by the heavens? Then, aren't those so-called cause and effect very ridiculous? According to your argument, how are those causes and effects? It's not just a farce directed and performed by Tiandao."

   The old Taoist shook his head repeatedly in denial.
