A: Just because we didn't practice in our last life. The so-called "the last life did not repair the suffering of this life, and this life did not repair the suffering of the next life."
We have lived many times and robbed many times. Until now, we are all lazy and relaxing. We still have doubts about Buddhism and cannot be brave and diligent. When I meet Buddhism, I don't practice hard; I am ecstatic when I encounter evil methods. Study hard. Buddha is not like this. He worked diligently at six o'clock day and night, practicing all the methods in the endless and incredible robbery. He tried hard to practice in order to make all living beings happy from suffering. After becoming a Buddha, you will have the power to educate all beings. This is the great immortal power and the Buddha power.
One day when Buddha Sakyamuni was alive, he grabbed a handful of earth from the ground and put it in his hand. He said to his disciples, "Do you all say that I have a lot of earth in my hand? Or is there more soil on the earth? " All the disciples said in unison, "The Buddha has the least soil in his hand and the most soil on the ground."
The Buddha said, "Do you know? There are as few people who get their bodies as the earth in their hands, and as many people who lose their bodies as the earth. "
We have only five minutes of enthusiasm for learning Buddhism, and we have no perseverance. Because of this, I wander among the six divisions of the wheel of karma. Sometimes I fall into hell, sometimes I am born, sometimes I am a shura, sometimes I am an animal, sometimes I am a ghost, and sometimes I am a human being.
However, being a man is not an easy task. As the saying goes, "It is rare to have one person today, and the Buddha stinks today; This body is not to live in this life, but to live in this life. "
We are lucky enough to get the human body. Don't live up to our human mission, follow the path of Bodhisattva and take the interests of all beings as the premise. Don't be selfish, just think of yourself. Debate if it is beneficial, and avoid if it is harmful. This kind of behavior is unacceptable. We must thoroughly understand the truth that "the past life has not been repaired in this life, and this life has not been repaired".
Practice is like doing business.
Do more good deeds and you will make money; If you commit more crimes, you will lose.
If we do something good in this life, we will have money in the next life; If you do evil in this life, you will be poor in the next life.
Just like doing business, people who can do business make money; People who can't do business will lose money. Do more good deeds and you will make money; If you commit more crimes, you will lose. This is the law of causality, an eternal law.
From the beginning, we sometimes made money and sometimes lost money. If you earn a little money, you will be satisfied. If you refuse to work harder, you will slowly lose money. Try to do business when you lose money, and make money over time, so it goes on and on, and so on! So you can't jump out of reincarnation.
This means that in good times, you refuse to practice, so-called "wealth is difficult to learn the Tao"; Only when you are in difficulties and hardships can you know how to practice.
The so-called "the last life did not repair the suffering of this life, and this life did not repair the suffering of the next life."
This is the same as doing business. Ordinary people only know how to do small business, but they don't know how to do big business.
Why?
The first capital (good roots) is insufficient, and the second experience (wisdom) is insufficient, so there is no great development.
What is a big enterprise?
It's a matter of life and death in the three realms.
