Destiny is the cause and effect. Whatever the cause, there will be the effect. Although the nature of the universe is impermanent, its destiny also comes from our hearts. Our hearts will also determine the size of our "fate". "All dharmas are inherently pure, and the Buddha seeks them in his heart." The Buddha himself once said in the Diamond Sutra: "What the Buddha taught is undesirable, unspeakable, illegal, and non-illegal." The Buddha also " It can’t be said.”

Why? Because the Dharma spoken by the Buddha comes from his own heart, and the Dharma he speaks is true. The Buddhas of the ten directions have shown the signs of long and wide tongues to prove it. What exactly is fate? After all, it is a person's true nature. The Buddha actually made it very clear about "conditions". The "conditions" of all living beings come from their original minds. As the saying goes, "One thought is pure, and lotus flowers bloom everywhere." "One thought is heaven, and one thought is hell."

Why does the Buddha ask all living beings to "avoid doing all evil and practice all good"? Life is unpredictable! Doing bad things and doing good things have different starting points. But they all come from within us.

Although the impermanence of life is explained by the word "destiny", it does not mean that the Buddha said nothing. Why did Namo's master, Sakyamuni Buddha, become a Buddha in our Saha world and help all sentient beings? This is because sentient beings have committed bad karma and do not know how to repent. In order to enable all suffering sentient beings to be liberated, the Buddha preached the wonderful Dharma to all sentient beings and allowed them to practice the path to Bodhi. This "fate" is a person's perception of the external world and the scene that appears in his or her heart. It's like when I see a helpless old man, I suddenly feel sympathy, and I hope to do my best to help him.

Sometimes there is a necessary relationship between fate and causation, and there is also an accidental relationship. We say it is inevitable because we can predict it; we say it is accidental because we have not thought of it before. "Destiny" and "causation" are interdependent and independent of each other. Their relationship can be said to be simple or complex. The key is that we have to understand it with our hearts.

I am very happy that you have such an understanding. Learning Buddhism is learning how to cultivate your own pure heart. "Reciting the Buddha's name starts with the intention, learning Buddhism and being a human being starts from the beginning."

The above is my personal opinion. If I am wrong in anything, I would like fellow practitioners to correct me.
