Master Huijing’s Short Dharma Teachings about Deep Belief in Cause and Effect
深信因果
The most fundamental teaching in Buddhism is “cause and effect”? What is “cause and effect”? Good rewards for good deeds, and bad retributions for bad deeds. If we practice good virtues, we will be happy as a reward. If we do evil, we will suffer in retribution. Simply speaking, it is good and bad causes creating positive and negative effects.
Moreover, these effects under causal conditions are not just applicable to this lifetime; but, also extend through all periods in the past, present, and future.
Expressed in complete terms, these are known as “the causes and effects in thethree periods of time.” We believe that good causes create good effects and bad causes create bad effects. These actions encompass past, present, and future. We also believe in reincarnation within the Six Realms. All of these teachings were given by Shakyamuni Buddha. As Buddhist disciples, we believe the Buddha’s teachings. Those who do not accept these teachings are not considered Buddhist disciples.
佛教最基本的教法就是「因果」,什麼因果呢?就是善有善報,惡有惡報,行善將來得到樂的果報,行惡將來得到苦的果報,簡而言之,就是善惡報應的因果。
而且這個因緣果報不只是今生今世而已,是貫通過去、現在以及未來的,完整的講,就是三世因果。相信善惡報應、三世因果、六道輪迴,就是相信佛教,沒有這樣的相信就不是佛教信徒了。
Namo Amituofo!
