Why the bad fate

On the train going home to visit relatives during the Spring Festival, I met a young couple taking their 3-year-old daughter to see a doctor. During the chat, I learned that the child’s disease is congenital and difficult to treat. The father exposed his daughter’s back to us, which really surprised people. The seemingly pretty and cute little girl’s back was actually covered with large and small, uneven and extremely irregular bumps. Like a patient severely scalded by boiling water. In order to treat their child, the couple had spent all their savings. This time they borrowed money from relatives to seek medical treatment out of town.

Listening to the couple’s poignant narration, a picture emerged before my eyes: There was a gray-black wild cat that often came to a farmer’s yard to steal food. One day, the owner bought ten ducklings and let them roam in his yard. But for some unknown reason, there were two ducks missing every day. On the third day, through observation, the owner determined that the murderer was this wild cat. . So I set up a trap with a big clip, caught the wild cat, locked it up in an iron cage, stabbed it hard with a stick, and scolded it while stabbing: “You beast, how dare you eat our ducks?” You must die well!” Seeing that the stabbed cat was still struggling desperately, he used more cruel methods to pour boiling water on its back until the wild cat whined in pain and died. give up. At that time, the hostess was pregnant, and the cat’s spiritual consciousness was full of resentment and “seized” the cat’s body and reincarnated into this family. It was this poor little girl in front of him.

So, I asked the couple: “Have you ever scalded a wild cat to death?” The father was immediately frightened and asked nervously: “You, how do you know that I killed a wild cat three years ago?” A wildcat?”

“Your daughter’s illness is caused by cause and effect. Only by studying Buddhism can we help your whole family.”

“We believe in Buddhism. Our whole family goes to the temple every year to burn incense and pray to Buddha for peace.”

“True learning of Buddhism is not about blindly burning incense and praying to Buddha for peace. It is about seeking Dharma from the heart. You should get rid of your bad habits and angry personality. After you go back, you must repent of the murderous karma you have made in the past, eat vegetarian food and recite “Earth” “100 Tibetan Buddhist Sutras”, and you must do your best to release more lives and dedicate them to your daughter. It is because of the evil deeds you have created that you will have such a child.” The couple was shocked and surprised. I was happy and ashamed, so I immediately vowed to eat vegetarian food for this child, chant sutras, and study Buddhism well after returning home.

We humans think that we are the spirits of all living things. For our own selfish desires, we will kill all living beings by any means without the slightest mercy. The Master Xuanhua once said, never make grudges with living beings, otherwise you will not be able to bear the consequences before they appear. Bitter fruit. If we believe in Buddhism, we must firmly believe in cause and effect and strictly abide by the precepts. Cut off evil and close the door to hell for yourself; practice good and pave a road to heaven for yourself; learn Buddhism and build a bright road for yourself out of the three realms and leading to the world of bliss.

The best way to solve bad fate is Buddhism. I sincerely wish this family can live a happy life through learning Buddhism.
