The amazing law of cause and effect (depth and depth)
The two ends of human nature are good and evil, and the two ends of reincarnation are cause and effect.
Everything in the world, where there is a result, there must be a cause.
Everything you do and say will come back to you.
Good is rewarded with good, evil with evil, and the causal cycle is not illusory, but a real human law.

The causes and consequences of evil
Deceive others = hurt yourself.
Deceiving others may not be discovered for a while, but after a long time, lies are discovered, and ultimately it is yourself who hurts.
When Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was in power, there was an alchemist named Luan Da. He was good at talking and boasting, and what he said was absolutely right.
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was convinced that he not only valued him, but also betrothed Wei princess royal to him.
Soon, however, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty discovered that most of Luan Da's magic was invalid, and he had no magical power.
Angry Liang Wudi was sentenced to halved in a rage.
He gained a short-lived fortune by lying, and all these were castles in the air, which became an empty city in the blink of an eye and paid the price of his life.
Lie to others once, others will only suffer once, and when others see through your lies, you will suffer for life.
As we know, the kid who is herding sheep deceives the villagers who trust him again and again, and the consequence is that when the wolf really comes, he tells the truth and no one believes him.
Be careful when opening your mouth. Don't lie for immediate gain. When the truth comes out, there is no escape for lies.
Hate others = torture yourself.
There was a great hero named Hercules in ancient Greek mythology.
One day he was walking on a bumpy mountain road and found a bag in front of him, which hindered his steps.
So he stepped on that thing, but instead of being stepped on, it doubled in size.
Hercules became angry from embarrassment and picked up a thicker stick and was about to hit it. As a result, it grew up and blocked the road.
Just then, a saint came out of the mountain and said to him:
"Friend, don't touch it, forget it, stay away from it!
It's called a hate bag. If you don't, you'll be as young as before. If you violate it, it will swell up, block your way and be hostile to you to the end! "
Walking in the world, it is inevitable that there will be misunderstandings and frictions.
When someone inadvertently offends you and gets in your way, please avoid it, because the more you hate, the more you hate, and the road is blocked.
It's harmless to hate others, but it's you who feel bad. It's not good for you to be immersed in the unhappy mood brought by others.
When you resent, you see that everything is not going well, and there is no other way but to torture yourself.
Breaking faith with others = deceiving yourself.
Without trust, people can't stay in the world for a long time. If they don't trust others, they will eventually deceive themselves.
Liu Ji, a writer in the early Ming Dynasty, recorded such a story in his Yu:
It is said that a businessman in Yin Ji sank when crossing the river. He fell into the water and shouted for help.
A fisherman saved him with a boat, and the businessman promised:
"If you can save me, I will give you one hundred and twenty gold."
But after landing, the merchant broke his word and only gave twelve taels.
The fisherman said, "You promised to give me one hundred and twenty."
The businessman flew into a rage:
"When you are a fisherman, aren't you satisfied with twelve taels of gold?"
The fisherman blamed the businessman for not keeping his word and left disappointed.
Then one day, the businessman unfortunately capsized again.
Someone heard a voice and asked the fisherman why he didn't save people. The fisherman said, "This businessman broke his word and cheated me!" " "
Finally, the businessman reaped the consequences and sank into the water.
When people lose their credit and really need others' help, no one will help you anymore.
Credit is a passport for people to walk in this world. One hundred and twenty gold is not worth one or two credits. Be a man, never break your promise to others.
Jealous of others = worried about yourself.
Wang Xiaobo said:
"All human sufferings are essentially anger at their own incompetence."
Always jealous that others live better than themselves and never look at themselves, this is punishing yourself in disguise.
When you are jealous, all your troubles come.
During the Warring States Period, Sun Bin and Pang Juan, famous military strategists, studied the art of war at the entrance of Guiguzi.
Fellow people should be friendly and help each other, but Pang Juan doesn't think so.
He knew that Sun Bin's talent far exceeded his own, and jealousy made him completely forget the feelings of his classmates, and his heart was full of resentment.
So he framed Sun Bin for adultery with Qi, cut off Sun Bin's foot, tattooed his face, and humiliated him physically and mentally.
Later, Sun Bin defected to Qi and was appointed as a military adviser by Qi Weiwang, who helped Tian Ji, the general of Qi, defeat Pang Juan twice. Poverty in Pang Juan, suicide. Unwilling to die, he cursed Sun Bin.
Jealousy is a fire that people put in their hearts and will eventually burn themselves to ashes.
Jealousy is a barrier that covers people's eyes, so they can't see farther, and their vision is limited to the present, so the road gets narrower and narrower, and finally they enter a desperate situation.

Good causes good results.
Humble others = open-minded.
There is a saying in Caigen Tan:
"Where the road is narrow, leave a step for people to walk; Strong fragrance, negative three points for people to eat. This is the bliss method. "
Treating people and learning to be modest is a major criterion for us to walk in the world.
The longevity sutra records:
Chen Tao, a scholar in the Western Han Dynasty, and Ji Bo, a villager, are neighbors. One night, Gilbert secretly moved the fence to Chen Tao's land to increase his own land.
Chen Tao not only didn't argue with him after seeing it, but also quietly removed the fence after Gibb left, moved ten feet to his own land and added the land to Gibb.
Gibbon later learned that he was ashamed, so he voluntarily repaid the land he occupied, and he returned.
Let others give you three points and others will give you three points back. The land is widened by comity.
Treat people with humility and openness, and many problems will be solved.
Helping others = happiness.
We often say that giving roses is fragrant, helping others and bringing happiness to ourselves.
Wang Xizhi, a great calligrapher in the Jin Dynasty, once walked down the street and saw an old woman selling a bunch of fans, shouting at the top of her lungs, and no one stopped to buy them.
Wang Xizhi felt sorry for her after seeing it, so he borrowed a pen from a nearby shop, went to the old woman and wrote an inscription on each fan.
Passers-by opened the fan and saw the words inscribed by the great calligrapher Wang Xizhi, scrambling to buy them. The fans were sold out in an instant.
The old woman turned grief into joy and went home with money to buy rice. Wang Xizhi left with a smile.
For Wang Xizhi, the inscription for the fan is just a little effort, but for the old woman, it is a great help, which is related to life and death.
Ji Bolun said:
"Collecting honey from flowers is the entertainment of bees; But giving honey juice to bees is also the happiness of flowers. "
Good regardless of size, help others, be happy, why not!
Forgive others = be kind to yourself.
Zi Gong once asked Confucius:
"Teacher, is there a sentence that can be used as a principle of being a man?"
Confucius said, "This is probably forgiveness."
"Forgiveness" means tolerating, tolerating others and being kind to yourself.
In the Spring and Autumn Period, Guan Zhong beheaded Xiaobai, the son of Xiaobai, in order to make Miyako reign smoothly for a long time. However, Xiaobai not only did not die, but also succeeded to the throne and became Qi Huangong.
For this "revenge with one arrow", Qi Huangong not only didn't retaliate, but reused Guan Zhong and made him a pawn.
This tolerance made Guan Zhong loyal to Qi Huangong, and helped him overcome the crowd and achieved success.
Yu Dan said:
"If you can put it down, you can put it down. If you can tolerate it, you can tolerate it and leave a vast sky for yourself."
The ability of the sea to accommodate hundreds of rivers lies in its capacity, and the width of life lies in its ability to accommodate people.
Give others a tolerance, give yourself a piece of pure land, and reduce unnecessary troubles, so that life can be more calm.
Complete others = achieve yourself.
The Analects of Confucius has a cloud:
"A gentleman has the beauty of an adult, but not the evil of an adult."
When you were alive, you made yourself by helping others.
Ouyang Xiu, the literary leader of the Northern Song Dynasty, has a unique eye. After discovering Su Shi's talent, he immediately recommended Su Shi to the emperor.
Su Shi, with the support of Ouyang Xiu, glorified the literary world of the Great Song Dynasty, but Ouyang Xiu was not forgotten and was praised by later generations as an aboveboard model for recommending Su Shi and others.
During the Journey to the West, the Monkey King spared no effort to escort Tang Priest to the West for Buddhist scriptures. After eighty-one difficulties, he finally got the right result.
I fulfilled the Tang Priest's wish, and achieved good results, becoming a defeated Buddha.
No one is an island and can be self-sufficient. The best relationship between people is to help each other and help each other, and eventually they will get good results.
Only do good deeds when you are alive, and the blessings will come. If you plant a good career, you will get good results.

The fruits of life are all made by ourselves, and the causal cycle has its own conclusions.
As the saying goes, "As you sow, you reap."
What you sow will bear fruit.
Do not harm people's hearts, this life is a blessing; If you want to be opportunistic, the result can only be that you are smarter than you.
You hit others, others hurt, and you also hurt; You give someone a candy, others are happy, and you are happy.
The cause and effect of good and evil are mutually exchanged.
Life is like a book. The value of a good book lies not in its thickness, but in its content.
Everyone writes his own story. How to have a happy ending in the life of joys and sorrows depends on how the writer puts pen to paper.
