Why do some people have two or three immortal ways in their horoscopes? Does it have anything to do with past lives?
The Six Paths: Heaven, Humans, Asuras, Animals, Hungry Ghosts, and Hell. Among them, the human and animal realms are visible to ordinary people, while the other realms are uncommon. But can’t we think about the continuous birth and death of humans and animals? For example, if you, yourself, have reincarnation, at least you can be sure that you have already experienced it once. Since it can happen once, doesn’t it mean there won’t be a second time or a third time? Again, animal, why is it an animal and not a human? Are you sure that it will not be a human when it comes next time, but will still be an animal? Can you be sure that next time you come, you will still be a human and not an animal? Believe it or not, think rationally, not whether you want to believe it or not.
If you think about this question clearly, whether people have previous lives is also included in it.
Why you don’t succeed depends on cause and effect. Cause and effect in the real world is recognized by most people. ——You will easily get sick if you don’t take care of your body, and you will get sick if you eat unhygienic food. From this, you know that there is a law. Then this law exists in this world, and if there is a next life, it will definitely continue. Why continue? This requires exploring the essence of human beings. I’ll go into details later when I have time.
As for the horoscope, it is a basis for people to explore their destiny. It is not a cause in itself. What is the reason? The reason is what people themselves have done in the past. This comes back to the law of cause and effect. So, the key here is what performs this cause and effect.
To discuss this issue, we must first understand and determine what "I" is. This topic is long and cannot be explained clearly in a few words. It is recommended to read the book "Empirical Buddhist Teachings" written by Dr. Lu Zhenguan. Then you will suddenly realize, oh, it turns out this is the case!
Let me say a few more words. What is responsible for the execution of cause and effect? It is not a certain god or the omnipotent Lord. The execution of cause and effect is completely determined by the original consciousness of oneself and others. Completed. This is a very scientific and verifiable proposition. To understand the truth of this world of life, it’s better to read Dr. Lu’s book. I would like to add that what Dr. Lu wrote in his book was not invented by him, but he understood the Buddhist scriptures and then explained the principles in the Buddhist scriptures.
