Is there any cause and effect?

2024-04-14 Study Buddhism and resolve doubts

Some people may doubt whether there is any cause and effect?Then we can also observe a phenomenon, why is everyone born different?Why are the brothers and sisters born to the same parents different in appearance, temperament, health, physical condition, interests, qualifications, and blessings?

Even if the twins look almost exactly the same, many ideas or preferences and their future development opportunities are different;There are many signs that can prove that there is indeed reincarnation and cause and effect.

The reason for the karma of cause and effect is that each of us sentient beings has the eighth consciousness of Tathagata who holds up all the karma we create. Therefore, all the good and evil karma we create will be collected by Tathagatagarbha, and the consequences will be realized when the cause and condition mature in the future.As Volume 57 of the Great Treasure Sutra says: [If the karma done by a hundred kalpas does not perish, and the cause and condition will be encountered, the consequences will be borne by yourself]

The Buddha said in the sutra: Even if we have gone through hundreds and thousands of kalpas 4 for such a long time, all the karma we have created in the past life will not be destroyed. When the cause and condition are ripe in the future, we will still bear the consequences of the karma we have created in the past;This is what Buddhism often says: Nothing can be taken away, only karma can be followed by oneself.

When we die, our body (physical body) and consciousness will die and eliminate, but the karma we create will not perish and will still exist in our eternal true heart. ─The Eighth Consciousness Tathagatagarbha ─middle.Volume 19 of the "Avatamsaka Sutra of the Great Blessing Buddha" (20) "The Praise of the Verse in the Yama Palace" also says: "If a person wants to know, all Buddhas in the three worlds should observe the nature of the Dharma Realm, and everything is created by the mind."】

Note 4 A great catastrophe refers to the time when a galaxy is born to destruction, that is, the four mid-causes of formation, existence, destruction and emptiness.It was a very long time, perhaps hundreds of billions of years.
