1. Good deeds will be rewarded with good deeds, and evil deeds will be rewarded with evil deeds.

From "Yingluo Jing·There are actions but no actions". Kind people will get good rewards if they do good deeds; evil people will get bad retribution if they do bad things. This is originally the Buddhist theory of karma and retribution. Buddhism believes that retribution is a matter of time: "It's not that you don't repay, the time has not come; when the time comes, everything will be repaid." They even believe that if you don't repay in this life, you will get retribution in the next life. This sentence has a positive meaning, because good people will always get good rewards, and people who do bad things will eventually be punished.

He believes that the occurrence, development, and demise of anything are conditional, and cause and effect are complexly connected.

4. What kind of couple are they?

From "Happy Enemies". According to the Buddhist theory of karma and retribution, if you do good or evil, if you do not get retribution in this life, you will definitely get retribution in the next life. The retribution that occurs in this life is called "retribution in this life", which mostly refers to the retribution received during one's lifetime for doing evil things.

5. Everything has its own root. Planting crops will eventually produce bean sprouts.

From "The Road is Difficult" by Gu Kuang of the Tang Dynasty. Everything has its own characteristics. If you sow chestnuts, bean sprouts will never grow. This sentence illustrates the causal relationship between things.

6. I have already received blessings from my previous life in this life, and I will not be able to form any destiny in the next life.

7. Heart disease must be cured by heart medicine. The person who untie the bell is still the one who ties the bell.

See Chapter 90 of "A Dream of Red Mansions" written by Cao Xueqin and Gao E in the Qing Dynasty. Heart disease occurs because you have some conflicts with others, which leads to psychological unhappiness. Simply relying on comfort and persuasion is of no help. You must find the person who caused the heart disease and try to resolve the conflict in order to cure the heart disease; whoever ties the bell should be Who can solve it. It is a metaphor that whoever caused the problem should solve it.

8. If the wood is broken, moths will be opened, and if the wall is broken, there will be gaps.

This is a sentence from "Han Feizi·Death Campaign". Everything happens for a reason, especially for bad things, it must be due to some previous mistakes or negligence.

9. If you look at yourself, you can know others; if you look at the present, you can know the past. The past and the present are one, and people have the same ears as me.

From "Lu Shi Chun Qiu· Cha Jin". By understanding yourself, you can understand and understand others; by understanding and understanding today, you can understand and understand ancient times. Because the principles and logic in ancient times and today are the same, and the psychology and behavior of others and ourselves have the same laws and logic. This sentence points out that human psychology and behavioral patterns are homogeneous, and the cause-and-effect relationships of things, as well as their unfolding and evolution, are all regular.

10. If the trees are beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy them; if they are piled up on the shore, the current will be turbulent; if you walk higher than others, the crowd will reject them.

It comes from "On Emperor Yun" written by Li Kang of the Wei state during the Three Kingdoms period. If a Jiamu forest stands out too much among the trees, it will inevitably be destroyed by strong winds; if a mound of soil protrudes from an embankment, it will be washed away by rapids; if a person's character is higher than that of ordinary people, he will inevitably be criticized and slandered by ordinary people. When a disaster strikes, people or things that stand out too much in the group must be the first to be hit.
