Mystery of Civilization 黃易 1121Words 2023-02-05
In human experience, the world is made up of large and small cycles, day to month, spring, summer, autumn and winter, birth, old age, sickness and death, come and go, and go again and again, so after birth, old age, sickness and death, another birth, old age, sickness and death, It's the most natural idea. Besides, life is too unfair. People are born rich and poor, but if reincarnation does exist, everything will be evened out. Everyone takes turns to play, and you don’t even have to worry about killing or losing your fortune, because everyone has the opportunity to experience different forms of life. For worms or ants, pigs or dogs, if you kill me today, I will eat you tomorrow, there is nothing to complain about.Just like being abandoned and betrayed in this life, maybe I was a member of the one who abandoned and betrayed others in the previous life.

Buddhism is based on reincarnation, and established a causal relationship between past lives and rebirths, sowing good causes and good results, but if we want to go back to the source, what kind of evil causes caused us to fall into this boundless sea of ​​suffering? No one can tell. A disciple of the Buddha with a pure heart once asked him about the first cause. The Buddha replied: Suppose you are hit by an arrow and are in danger. Go to the doctor. The doctor's first task is to heal your injury, not to ask Why did you get hit by an arrow?Who shot the arrow?If you don't know what to ask, you won't do anything to help.

The wise Buddha cleverly avoided this question, so that we still don't know why we were hit by an arrow and fell into the cycle of life and death?Who actually shot the arrow?I don't know whether wisdom such as Buddha knows the answer? In Buddhism, there are different forms of reincarnation, and the most noble form is human beings. Only through human life can one hope to escape the sea of ​​suffering of reincarnation. Therefore, the human body is very precious, a treasure raft to cross the sea of ​​evil, and the last form of life.Whether this is human beings selling flowers and praising the fragrance of flowers is another mystery of the mysterious life.

There are countless examples of reincarnation. Most of them remember a certain part of the previous life, so the child recognizes his wife who is older than his mother; authenticity.Especially in countries that believe in reincarnation such as India, there are more instances of reincarnation than anywhere else, making people suspect that there is also a causal relationship between reincarnation events and beliefs. Reincarnation may be a panacea for injustice. People are born unequal, rich and poor, smart and stupid. But assuming that human beings can keep reincarnating, experience various life forms, and enjoy different lives that are cute or hateful, then life is just a cycle of life, and there is no fair or unfair distinction.

Only in that way can we truly experience life in an all-round way. Man no longer has to fear its existence to the grave. Every life is just a small episode in eternity. Wisdom or stupidity, hero or coward are just different experiences, and there is no difference in essence when you experience life from different angles. Every life is just a station, and the birth of a person is like burying a station at a pier. After being a guest, the ship lifts anchor and continues another journey. But life is too real, we are trapped in the cage between life and death, none of the conjectures beyond life and death can be 100% confirmed, we can only believe, believe in or not.

Only in this way can everything in front of us become the top priority, so that we can devote ourselves to it, forgetting our status as passers-by, and becoming participants in the game of life who forget that it is just a game. Assuming there is reincarnation.
