You said that releasing animals will bring benefits to yourself or your family, which is true. What will happen if those fish and shrimps are not bought or released? Must have been ripped off alive and cooked. Have you ever wondered why we eat them? Are they willing to let us hack to death alive? Fish will struggle when put on the serving board, pigs will scream when they see the pig-killing knife, and cows will kneel in tears before being killed. . . All these animals know that they will be slaughtered. They are not without feelings and consciousness. They can feel pain like people and fear death. If we say that in the future, if aliens smarter than humans come to the earth (or meet wild animals), these aliens just like eating people, just like we like eating fish and shrimp. They indiscriminately take our parents and sisters and scrape us alive, then are we willing? We must hate those aliens who eat us, and we must find them when this account is dead. After all, they have no right to kill us at will. . . Just like us now, pigs, cows, sheep and dogs all have their own languages and have the feelings of brothers and mothers, but we don't understand them. If we can understand the language of animals, we can certainly know how badly the fish cried on the chopping board. I think it must be saying, "Don't kill me. . Don't kill me. . Please, "but we just want to eat its meat and kill it disrespectfully. What qualifications do we have? Why should we? These livestock were slaughtered by us in this way, so they have this resentment and will come to us for repayment! If you release them before they are slaughtered, you give them a new life and a chance to be reborn. . . Imagine if we slaughter them, they will come to us to pay their debts. On the contrary, we will release them, set them free and let them go on living. Then according to the law of causality, we will also get a healthy continuation of life. This natural law is absolutely correct. From the perspective of what goes around comes around, we deny Shou Kang's conclusion that what goes around comes around.
Yes . . You may also ask: why do good people not live long, but bad people can live for thousands of years? Why are so many bad guys alive? Don't the laws of karma and retribution for good and evil work for them? Actually, it's not. . . That's because the villain did something good (such as accumulating virtue in his last life). So now he is doing all kinds of evil, but living a comfortable life. That's because he hasn't paid back the virtue he accumulated in his last life, not because he didn't report it. Just not yet. When he destroyed all his accumulated blessings, what remained was the evil consequences of enjoying happiness while doing evil.
When you enjoy happiness, you only know how to enjoy it, but you don't know how to continue to cultivate it. Then according to the principle of causality, the blessings of not practicing will be exhausted sooner or later. Just like the grain planted this year, we will not plant it after eating it, and there will be nothing to eat next year, only starvation. Therefore, the saints advised the world to accumulate virtue and do good deeds at ordinary times and cultivate wealth.
Good people are rewarded, because good people have planted evil causes before (for example, they did evil in their previous lives), and the maturity of "evil causes" is naturally "bad consequences", so ... Even if he is a good man now, it is a pity that the consequences have not been digested, leading to a bumpy career and a difficult situation. . . But the more bumpy it is, the more I am eliminating my past sins. In this process, if you don't forget to be a good person and continue to have all kinds of "good causes", you will get "good results" in the future and pay off all these "debts" so that you can live comfortably. . Hehe ~ this is what goes around comes around, what goes around comes around. This is really a natural law. It's actually very simple, but it's worth thinking about.
