    The same beings, the same people! Why do some people recall past lives while most cannot?

    Answer: Because, in the next life, we forget the things of our previous lives and do not remember them. Ordinary people are not enough to say, Tiantai six is in the position, and the position of the view is also Yuner. Xuanyi said: "If it is similar, you will never forget it in the next life." The name is beneficial to the line, and it is forgotten in the next life. ”

    Frontier. If people can really be reincarnated, if there is really reincarnation in the world.

    So what my love was in our past lives.

    If you were a woman who picked lotus in Jiangnan.

    I'm the one you missed.

    If you were a naughty boy who skipped school.

    I will be that brand new marble that fell out of your bag.

    In the grass on the side of the road.

    Watch you go away without knowing it.

    If you were a monk facing the wall,

    I will be the pillar of incense before the temple.

    Burning has accompanied you for a quiet time.

    Therefore, when we meet in this life, we always feel that there is some unfinished edge.

    But I couldn't tell the difference in detail.

    I can't tell you them all.

    Don't listen to other people's nonsense, do you really see people around you who can recall your past life? It's just rumors, don't believe it!

    Since you don't remember your past lives, what's the point of reincarnation? It's just the pain of the world

    If you can recall your past life, it will be a great mess in the world'(although there are a few exceptions)...

    For example: will you go to the lover of your past life?'Child.

    Everything is arranged by the gods and Buddhas The gods and Buddhas only care about one thing:"Can people cultivate and go back?"...

    Arhats also have the mystery of separating yin, not to mention us ordinary people.

    Through practice, you can cultivate fate, and of course you will know your past life.

    Here's an example:

    If a person can earn 1 million yuan by starting a business, then before doing it, the Buddha told him the result, can he get the 1 million in the end?

    In fact, this is cause and effect, and the Buddha can understand the cause and effect, but only he can make a decision. The Buddha statue is a teacher, and he can do all the questions, but he only gives you the method, and when he takes the exam, he has to do it himself.

    Good friends, from birth to death, there is no shortage of good knowledge around us, but because sentient beings are unconscious of separation, they miss out on not knowing how much.

    The Buddha helps sentient beings to appear at the right time, showing good and evil, beauty and ugliness, and we don't know it. I wish you good luck at six o'clock!

    The Buddhist scriptures say, "If you want to know the cause of the past life, the recipient of this life is, and if you want to know the effect of the future life, the author of this life is." "Everyone's karma is different, and the Buddha has been telling us for more than 2,000 years.

    But we still can't believe it.

    That's why the Buddha said that the Buddha has a fate.

    It's not that the Buddha is not compassionate, it's that we are too self-righteous.

    The law of cause and effect is self-inflicted. The good and bad karma that one's own creation will ripen in this life, in the next life, or in a lifetime much later, and will produce retribution. And this law of cause and effect is extremely subtle, and the only one who completely sees and knows this cause and effect is the Buddha who has attained perfection and has full compassion.

    Even celestial beings are not fully aware and do not possess the same great compassion as the Buddha. After the Buddha attained enlightenment, he preached to us the law of cause and effect without any concealment, and taught various methods according to the different foundations of sentient beings, so that they could be liberated.

    The Buddha mentioned many times in the sutras, "I have told you the way to liberation, and it is up to you whether you are liberated or not." "It can be said that the Buddha has already told us, but we are not willing to understand, or we know it, and we are not willing to accept it. All beings are obsessed and helpless!

    May it be auspicious!

    Evidence of Reincarnation – Excerpt from Venerable Sheng Yan's "Karma and Reincarnation".

    1.Records of reincarnation: Some people can remember his past life, and this life is reincarnated from ** and reported by others; There have been such things in China, India has had them before, and now there are reports of this in the West.

    There is a man who, after he was born, remembers his parents and sons from his previous life; It's somewhere; What kind of house to live in, etc. Some scientists, or curious people, took him to look for it, and he found it. His son in his previous life had become his husband, and he said the name of that person, and what happened when he was a child, and it turned out to be his son in his previous life, and the scientists and the curious believed him.

    More than 10 years ago, the Straits Times recorded a girl who claimed to be the servant of a pharaoh in Egypt in her previous life, and that he was one of the funeral companions after the death of the pharaoh. Since it remembered the entrance to the pyramid where the pharaoh was buried, and knew how to open it, she took the experts to test it, and it turned out that it was. This is the true record of rebirth, which proves that we have past lives.

    2.Psychic phenomenon: These people are mediums, and they can communicate with the dead, which proves that people are not left with nothing after death.

    The consciousness of these mediums can leave the body and let the deceased come up to him to speak, and this voice is the voice of the deceased, which proves that the person is not a hundred after death, but is still active.

    3.Gifted children: They are born with special abilities without having to learn.

    Recently, it was reported that a six-year-old girl, whose father found that she had special abilities, put down his computer work and concentrated on teaching her, and as a result, she was admitted to university at the age of twelve, and at the age of sixteen she wanted to get a doctorate, and she wanted to become a university professor. Some geniuses, such as Mozart, Chopin, etc., can play the violin at a young age, and some can compose, and their talents are brought about by the karma of their previous lives, and they don't need to learn.

    4.Hypnosis: Hypnosis is very powerful nowadays, and some people can tell some deeds from their previous lives through hypnosis.

    Some psychologists are skeptical about these things, but after research, they found that this is really the case, which shows that everyone has the ability to remember past lives, because they are turned by the current state when they are awake, so there is no way to recall.

    5.Fatality and Celestial Vision: Some practitioners who have advanced meditation skills can use Karma to know their past lives or those of others, or to know their own or others' future lives.

    In the vicinity of the Himalayas in India, there are many meditators who can enter deep meditation, they have fatalism, they know past lives and future lives, and some meditators can even observe things 80,000 eons ago, they believe in reincarnation, so India is the first country in the world to believe in reincarnation.

    Is Yaoyao who answered this question a sister of Baguio? As for the problem of the landlord, it can be said that there are a few small examples, which are facts, such as instinct, all babies are born, when you don't know anything, you know that you are hungry and cry, you laugh when you are happy, you know your mother, you know how to find milk to eat, this is the first. Second, many people see in a dream or at a certain moment in reality, or think of it, and do it, and suddenly find that these things that have not been done before are so familiar, as if they have done it before, but after thinking about it, they have not done it, is this the second and third, that is, the existence of the soul, and it is enough to prove that ghosts exist, since ghosts exist, then reincarnation naturally also exists, A reincarnation song:

    Doing a lot of evil is not retribution, who knows if it is a maggot, doing good deeds and accumulating blessings is merit, and the reincarnation of heaven has its own retribution.

    Good and evil, in fact, are still in the perspective of the dualistic world.

    Because in the relative dualistic world, there is no absolute "good and evil", "success and failure", only relative. Even if you think a person is particularly bad, in another circle, maybe he is a good person; The same goes for success and failure.

    From another point of view, what the landlord said is very right, which is why the beings of other worlds are very envious of the beings in our sampa world.

    In the Heavenly Dao, everyone has enough food and clothing, which leads to no way to practice almsgiving; Everyone is full of good qualities, which leads to the inability to cultivate patience and humiliation; Everyone's lifespan is very long, and only the seven days of the five decays of heaven and man will reveal impermanence, which leads to the fact that few celestial beings can come into contact with life and death every day and observe impermanence like we do.

    Therefore, sentient beings in other worlds envy us and can have so many "helps" to help us progress. (Because there is no comparative goodness, it is like being in a sterile warehouse, rejecting all "poison", which is not conducive to progress).

    Finally, from another perspective, in the teachings of the true Dzogchen, all the "good and bad conditions" can be turned into our nourishment, but we always limit our views to the characteristic time and space points, and draw a circle for ourselves, so that we are doomed not to find a satisfactory answer. If you look at the sun, in its eyes, there is no difference between "spoiled" and "clean", why? Because it can "melt" everything and turn it into nourishment.

    Of course, this requires the guidance of wisdom, which is the teachings.

    If someone makes merit for the sake of eating well and dressing well in the next life, there is an infinite amount of merit. If someone cultivates merit in order to be able to accumulate resources and attain the Buddha's path, his merit is endless.

    Where does this society need to develop? Is it to run to the dirt full of desires, or to the good place where people's hearts are kind and sweet? Our world will not be all good and evil, because this is the land created by the common karma of all of us, and if our karma is not pure, the land cannot be pure.

    If we want our world to be brighter and not too bad, then we must develop pure thoughts to make the world good.

    LZ knows that there are past lives, present lives, and future lives, but do you know that there are cause and effect? The so-called "If you want to know the cause of the past life, the recipient of this life is, and if you want to know the effect of the next life, the creator of this life is." Predecessors:

    For thousands of years, the bowl of soup has been as deep as the sea and hateful. I want to know about the world's swords, but listen to the sound of slaughtering the door in the middle of the night. "No war in history is good, it is the suffering and misfortune of all beings.

    Pain and misfortune, is that development? Who wants such a "development".

    Good and evil are the front and back of our palms, and what we need to do is to turn the good side over and let the evil side go down, instead of letting evil convince us that its existence is important.

    Whether it's you in the past or the afterlife, it's just a change of vest, and it won't be irrelevant because you don't remember. Everything that happened to you in this life is the retribution of the previous life, and everything you do in this life is the cause of retribution in the next life. If you mistakenly take your greedy desires as your nature and do evil wantonly, the retribution in the future will be very serious.

    Doing well in this life and treating yourself and your family well is the guarantee of happiness in the future life.

    As a cultivator, you need to cut off the karma and return to the beautiful Pure Land, and then you need to do penance and become a monk.

    You were not you in the past life, and you don't know you in the next life, that's right.

    In fact, it's not just past and future lives, every moment of life and death, you are different. The only thing you have is here and now, and at this moment, to be kind to yourself and others, and not to be greedy for merit, is a very deep practice.

    As for good and evil, in fact, if you look deeper, there is no opposition between good and evil, but only the opposition between ignorance and enlightenment.

    Society is the consensus of all people, and you can manifest in the world at what level of sobriety you have. In the development of the world, from slavery to today, people's sobriety has generally increased, but it is still far from enough, and there are even more hidden worries about regression.

    In the cycle of successive eons, it is our nature that is neither born nor destroyed, nor increased nor decreased, and is consistent. The flesh of life and death in the three lives you are talking about is not ourselves at all. When one's nature is polluted, it is called the eighth consciousness or alayya, and the function of consciousness is to climb and weave all kinds of false aspects of birth and death.

    However, when one's self-nature is transformed into wisdom through practice, it is called Buddha-nature, self-nature, and Buddha-nature. All true appearances will not be born or destroyed, will not increase or decrease, and will not change with the changes of time and space.

    The argument that society relies on evil to promote development is, according to Buddhism, a big lie. How can the spread of evil lead to all kinds of destruction? In World War II, 30 million people died because of this evil.

    So if there is a third world war, will humanity still survive? Come to think of it, everyone uses super nuclear**, biochemical**.

    What humanity has today is by no means the result of development. If you look at the moral decay on a global scale, even the least sense of trust between people has become a luxury, the disharmony between man and the nature on which he lives, and the unprecedented technological advance, the earth has become devastated. Are we really indifferent to any of these?

    Can you talk about the development of mankind and the prosperity of mankind?

    Whether humanity can survive and develop or whether it will accelerate its own destruction even more, how can it be casually nonsense with the approximate estimation of some ordinary person?
