Chapter 1883 Talk about the reincarnation of cause and effect
Yamazaki thought, "Old books, these ancient books you are talking about are probably from the past few hundred years. They were obtained from trade between the Liu Dynasty and the other three continents."
Cai Ji lamented: "That's exactly what happened. At most, ancient books were written first, but they disappeared after that."
Yamazaki sighed, "Emperor Qin claimed to be higher than the sky, established the throne above the king, and prohibited books that undermined the throne from entering the Qin Empire. Books from the Great Zhou Dynasty can only be found in his imperial palace."
"Later the empire asked Xiang Zhen to burn them all, and these books were gone."
"Liu You died in the fight against the rebellion. He died too early and suddenly, and he did not care about the inheritance of the book."
"Queen Lu doesn't care about the inheritance of humanity. She only cares about how to consolidate the imperial power, how to hold the imperial power alone, and use the imperial power to rule the world."
"Things before the Zhou Dynasty have gradually become legends and myths."
"I haven't seen the creation of the world, so I won't talk about it."
"In ancient times, I don't know much about the disputes between the demon clan and the ancestors, so I ignored them."
"The ancient emperors and empresses, how they governed the world, were also skipped."
"It's just that the ancient emperor of heaven blindly acted according to the rules of heaven, which overwhelmed the creatures on the earth, and gradually evolved into a war between heaven and earth, in which the earth conquered the sky."
"Infinite numbers of creatures in the sky and on the earth were involved, and this war became an immeasurable catastrophe."
"The battlefield is mainly in Buzhou Mountain. Only from Buzhou Mountain can the creatures on earth reach the heaven."
"Buzhou Mountain was finally knocked down, the sky tilted, and the upper half of Buzhou Mountain fell."
"You can imagine how earth-shaking it would be if a huge mountain peak tens of millions of miles long crashed to the ground from an altitude of tens of millions of miles, and how devastating it would be for all living beings!"
"The earth was crushed and collapsed, dust was stirred up to form mountains, and the waves were swept along the depression. In addition, the Tianhe River overturned, and heavy rain poured down continuously. It can be said that the entire world was soaked in water."
"The Empress Nuwa patched up the sky, and the Empress Houtu saw countless remains floating on the water, and countless resentful spirits running around all over the earth, wailing full of hatred and poison."
"Therefore, Empress Houtu transformed into the underworld, accommodated the resentful spirits between heaven and earth, and created a third realm beyond heaven and earth."
"Then set up six paths of reincarnation, so that all living things in the world will not truly die, but will only reincarnate continuously between heaven and earth."
"Of course, there are no absolutes. Generally speaking, among the countless creatures in the three realms, some will get lost on the road to the underworld, or get lost in the Yinshan Mountains, and eventually lose everything and completely disappear between heaven and earth."
"The rest of the living beings, affected by cause and effect, merit and sin, will be reincarnated in the six realms of humanity, animal realm, hungry ghost realm, hell realm, heavenly realm, and Shura realm."
"All living beings have cause and effect, and all have merits and sins."
"Unless the cause and effect comes, the merits and sins will not be offset. The sins will continue to exist until the cause and effect ends."
"The merits are divided into the merits of heaven, the merits of earth, and the merits of humanity."
"Just because a creature has sinned deeply does not mean that he has no merit."
"Those who have committed serious sins will enter the hell realm, where they will be punished. After enough sins have been offset, they will be transferred to other realms based on merit and cause and effect."
"For example, the person who knocked down Buzhou Mountain had immeasurable merits and immeasurable sins, so he went to hell first to be punished. After an infinite amount of time that no one knows, he could wash away enough sins and still be able to go to heaven."
"And heavenly beings are originally people from the heavenly realm, but after the Emperor of Heaven, Emperor Fuxi followed the way of heaven and gathered people from all races on the earth to merge with the way of humanity."
"Invite Taoism and Buddha to participate and teach together to prevent the catastrophe of heaven and earth."
"The Tao has three deities, and the Buddha has two ancestors."
"The Taoist gate leaves the heaven, inherits the heaven, and rules the heaven, the underworld, and the human world."
"Buddhism opens up the Buddhist world and respects the laws of heaven, but it forms its own system and essentially controls Xiniu Hezhou."
"After the Emperor of Heaven, the heaven is the heaven, and the heavenly people are the people of the heaven."
"Speaking of which, the Six Paths are also influenced by Buddhism, and the Shura Path can be said to be specially established for Buddhism."
"Buddhism will transform the meritorious but aggressive Shuras into peaceful Buddhists, who are gods in the Buddhist world."
"The merits and virtues are the same, the sins are the same, the cause and effect are the same, that is, they are reincarnated into human beings and continue to hang out in the human world."
"A person's lifespan is 120 years. At this age, he will be taken away by the underworld to avoid causing more karma and wasting his fortune."
"Disasters are caused by cause and effect. Going to Tuosheng early is also caused by cause and effect."
"For example, if you kill a rabbit and eat it in one life, the rabbit turns into a human in this life, and you are also a human, the rabbit will give you a knife, and the cause and effect will be achieved."
"Then count the karmic sins."
"If you kill a rabbit and eat it, you will eat it. It is a right name and a sin. But when the cause and effect comes, the sin will be cleared."
"In this life, if the rabbit kills you, it depends on the situation of both parties."
"You are an evil person. Killing you is to eliminate evil and promote good. In addition to sin, that rabbit has additional merits."
"When the cause and effect of the sin comes, it will be offset by the sin of killing the rabbit."
"This is the so-called equality of all living beings. Whether rabbits or humans, they are all living beings in the world, and there is no distinction between them."
"The merits are retained in the body. If they are greater than one's own sins, they can protect themselves and turn disaster into good."
"How effective it is depends on how much your merits outweigh your sins. The more merits you have, the more effective it will be."
"When you go to the underworld at the age of 120, if you still have a lot of merit, you can turn it into an invisible blessing and bring it to reincarnation."
"A wealthy family, a noble family, or even a prince's family."
"On the other hand, if you have committed too many sins, you can only go to the realm of animals and hungry ghosts."
"If you can cherish yourself, continue to do good, and gain merit, through continuous accumulation, you can one day be declared a heavenly being and go to heaven."
"This is actually difficult because there are too many causes and effects involved."
"Let's put it this way, if you are from a wealthy family and have a big meal with sixteen dishes, there will be hundreds of causes and effects in it."
"Meat, the butcher who cuts the meat, the cook who roasts the meat, the maid who serves the dishes, the vegetables, the farmer who grows the vegetables, the steward who buys the vegetables, the housekeeper who pays the money, where is the money?"
"Wait, wait, wait, if you are not careful, you will step on the cause and effect."
"For example, if the butcher shows his kindness and overpays you for eating it without paying for it, the cause and effect is huge. You will be stabbed in the meat in the future, but you will not die from the injury."
"If you eat its flesh, it will bite you and hurt you in the future. It is natural."
"And people have to eat while they are alive. If you survive for 120 years, just by eating, you will have so many causes and effects that you can't even calculate it."
"Only the life and death book in the underworld can be read and displayed."
"So there is no way to save people, let alone save the people in the world, because what is saved is only this life, but there are still many lifetimes of karma waiting in the underworld."
"If one mistake is not made, it will destroy a creature's path of blessings and fate, causing it to miss the cause and effect of becoming a heavenly being."
"There is no point in saving a person who has committed serious sins, because he will hardly have the chance to pay off his sins in this life."
