"Self-drawing, self-drawing, self-drawing. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Sure enough, it was confirmed again that the hunch of the two gangs was correct, just sat down and played a round, four decks of cards and two gangs in a row touched three in a row, a reckoning account and the two gangs won more than two hundred, of course, after deducting the Taiwan fee, the two gangs still have two new shiny 100 yuan bills, no way, is what they all requested, today's mahjong chips have increased a little, ten plus five with floating, that is to say, the bottom is ten yuan, and there is another flower plus five yuan, if someone is still too small, you can add ten yuan bets, There are probably two guys who have a lot of money, and they don't care about thirty-seven twenty-one, and they float up, so the second gang won an extra sixty or seventy yuan.

Mortals have the power to be exhausted, and the blessings are not exhausted, as if the "Jade Calendar Treasure Banknote" is what it says, so although the two gangs feel that their luck will be good today, but they are playing steadily, a pair of not floating, there is actually the boss lady who looks at the cards is also floating in the door of the second gang, everyone said that it is good to bring, and after winning two hundred yuan, he happily went to the street to buy delicious food, and after Chen Yan in the restaurant was busy, he also came to see the excitement, and couldn't help but float a few handfuls in the second gang, and actually won more than two hundred, Naturally, I went to prepare dinner with a smile, and when the cards were scattered, the second gang counted them, that is, they won the first two thousand, plus the other two floated, in fact, the luck of the two gangs this afternoon was to win about two thousand five hundred yuan.

It's really an empty snakeskin bag filled with rice, although happy and excited, but I didn't forget to express it to the boss Yu, and gave a fifty yuan of happy money, and bought a copper incense burner and a handful of incense, ready to go home and pay a good tribute to the Bodhisattva with a pillar of incense, this is called Zhi'en Tubao, and bought a small rice cooker and a small electric wok, although it is a person, this always comes to the restaurant, it seems to be a little too disagreeable, and he said that he is not unable to cook and cook.

The second gang also thinks that this "Jade Calendar Treasure Banknote" is particularly spiritual, but it will definitely not be to let people win money by gambling, there will be more profound educational truths in it, in order to show that they are sincerely grateful and want to be a good person, that is, they have time to read more of this "Jade Calendar Treasure Bank", so the second gang waited for everything to be cleaned up, then closed the door, and quietly opened the "Jade Calendar Treasure Bank".

preface

A warning of high crime rates

Wei Pingxiong, a professor of criminology at the China University of Political Science and Law, said: "We are witnessing the fifth peak of crime since the founding of the People's Republic of China. This peak has not been reduced since its inception in 1989, and what is worse is that the severity of the malignant has been increasing year by year. In recent years, there have been more than 1.5 million cases per year, of which more than 500,000 have been major and vicious cases, a sixfold increase over 1985. In other words, there is a criminal case every 20 seconds and a major criminal case every minute in the country.

In addition to the large number of cases, there are four new characteristics worth paying attention to: younger, organized, mobile, and intelligent. Every year, 15~200,000 smaller and smaller minors are involved in murder and robbery, and the cruelty of their methods is not inferior to that of adult crimes.

In addition, 60 per cent of the country's crimes are committed by gangs that are very harmful to society. What is even more shocking is that criminal gangs with the nature of the triad are emerging in China, and attacks on police officers are occurring from time to time. Some new forms of intelligent crime, represented by computer crimes, have emerged at the right time, and a large number of disputes and cases caused by the integrity crisis have also become the focus of society in the new era. ”

In addition to sighing, people can't help but ponder: Why is the crime rate still high today, when the legal system is becoming more and more perfect? Why is it that the public security police force has been increasing its investment year after year, but it has not been effective in curbing crime? In the context of the increasing level of national education, why is people's moral sense of declining day by day? Why is there an increasing number of high-tech, high-educated, high-positional, and low-age crimes? Why has the spiritual civilization education advocated for many years failed to make fundamental progress? ……

The reason for this is that the increase in crime reflects the decline of people's moral concept and the lack of the concept of karma in which "good is rewarded with good, and evil is rewarded with evil." Therefore, they dare to act unscrupulously and disrupt society. As long as the heart does not change, crime will not decrease.

The building of the legal system and the increase in police force are only the external factors of the branches, while the education of the people's hearts is the real foundation of governance. As long as people believe in the truth of good and evil karma, they will consciously refrain from doing evil and pursue all good. It is true that it is still an effective temporary method for a society that is already deeply indulged in severe punishment and severe punishment to deal with crime, but in order to achieve long-term peace and stability, it is also necessary to start with the moral root of the moral root of the moral root of the moral truth that good and evil are rewarded. Throughout history, this has been the case!

Reflections on moral and spiritual education

Looking back on history, since the Republic of China, due to the bad influence of "overthrowing Confucian shops and overthrowing old morality" in the "May Fourth" Movement, China's inherent morality has become increasingly low, and a new moral model has not been established accordingly. Subsequently, China carried out a series of political movements, which destroyed the excellent traditional culture rooted in the land of China for thousands of years without any selection and selection. It has caused several generations to lose their direction and standards for the concepts of good and evil, good and evil, and moral cause and effect.

The 13 th Plenary Session of the 13 th CPC Central Committee put things in order and raised China's moral construction to a great height. However, moral construction also needs to be compatible with social progress and material civilization. As the focus of the central work of the party and the state has shifted to economic construction, the people's material life has become more affluent, and their spiritual life has become more open and colorful.

However, due to the very weak educational foundation of moral karma and the lack of effective, timely, and correct guidance, the concepts of good and evil, good and evil, and cause and effect have not been promoted, and the majority of people regard the concept of good and evil cause and effect as superstition and reject it, and some people have the courage to act recklessly because they hold the theory of no cause and effect, and in addition to the imperfect legal system, and other factors, groups of teachable people have gone astray into crime, resulting in the frequent occurrence of big, important, and vicious cases.

If we do not punish and curb it in a timely manner and vigorously carry out cause and effect education, the construction of a modern China in the 21 st century will become an empty word.

On the other hand, the excellent traditional culture rooted in the land of China for thousands of years, all dynasties and dynasties have taken the truth of good and evil karma and ancient and modern examples as an effective way to alert the people, encourage officials, and show the monarchs and ministers and widely publicized, and from the education of young children and Mongolians, the concept of good and evil retribution began to be introduced, from textbooks, county chronicles, folk customs, family mottos, genealogies to official publications and canons, all of which involve the cases and sentences of good and evil retribution, such as "Three Character Classic", "Zengguang Xianwen", "Zhuzi's Family Motto" and so on.

The truth of cause and effect has saved many lost people, stopped the delusions of immeasurable foolishness and reversal, curbed countless greedy and violent evil thoughts, subdued endless anger and troubles, inspired generation after generation of officials to be benevolent, patriotic and close to the people, and guided countless people to self-discipline in words and deeds. The concept of retribution for good and evil has a powerful and incredible effect on the education of the people of the world and the improvement of social morality.

Cause and effect education and the building of the legal system should be carried out in parallel

Although the concept of cause and effect has its extraordinary effect on correcting people's hearts, unfortunately, for a long time, "belief in cause and effect" and "vulgar superstition" have been equated, and have been ignored and rejected by the government and some intellectuals.

However, in the face of the serious illness of society and the failure of moral and spiritual education for many years, it is time for the whole country to seriously think about it.

From the recurrence of major criminal cases and the high crime rate, it can be seen that strict criminal punishment and strict laws, simple improvement of people's academic qualifications, and biased economic development are not enough to fundamentally awaken the addicted people's minds.

On January 10, 2001, Chairman Jiang put forward the strategy of "governing the country with ethics" at the National Conference of Propaganda Ministers, and then China promulgated the "Outline for the Implementation of Civic Moral Construction" to popularize it among the whole people, hoping to start from the source and put an end to the occurrence of ugly phenomena.

However, where is the source? The most fundamental source of morality should be the purification of the human heart, and the purification of the human heart should be based on the belief in the cause and effect of good and evil. Because people's ideological concepts and psychological states are the driving force that governs behavior, only by guiding people to establish the concept of cause and effect of good and evil as the standard for guiding people's behavior is the fundamental method of governance from the source.

However, the belief in cause and effect should start with propaganda and education, starting with children and teenagers, and should be carried out throughout. Establishing the concept of cause and effect is the internal factor for governing people's hearts and morals, and strengthening the building of the legal system is the external factor for controlling behavior. Only by applying both internal and external causes, co-governing the source and tributaries, and comprehensively tackling the problem, can we comprehensively and effectively promote the transformation of the morality of the whole people, and only when the correct and scientific concept of cause and effect can be widely understood and accepted can vulgar superstitions be extinct from society, and this will play a fundamental and positive role in promoting the building of socialist spiritual civilization and the implementation of the strategy of "governing the country with ethics."

The phenomenon of ghosts and gods

In ancient China, the kings, ministers, and common people of all dynasties had a common and open belief in gods, and regarded unexplained supernatural phenomena as being caused by ghosts and gods.

Nowadays, with the advancement of science, the study of telepathy and many peculiar phenomena has become a specialized discipline, and some phenomena have been scientifically determined. Scholars in our country call this study "phenomenology". There is a national key institution of higher learning that has a research institute for "phenomenology". The journal "Chinese Human Sciences" founded by Shanghai Jiao Tong University and the Chinese Society of Human Sciences (public distribution) is the only academic journal in China that specializes in reporting academic research and practical results of such specific phenomena, and many famous first-class professors in the scientific and technological field serve as the review and editorial board members of the journal.

As Professor Trutz, director of the Center for Scientific Anomalies in the United States, put it: "History clearly proves that tomorrow's science will seem to include a number of miracles that we cannot think of, and that tomorrow's theories may explain some of the anomalies that we seem to be hotly debated today." ”

The world is full of wonders, and the unknown realm is vast. If you have not experienced ghosts and gods, it is best not to say that there are no ghosts and gods in the world, and those who believe in ghosts and gods are not necessarily ignorant and mediocre. On the contrary, the Book of Changes talks about ghosts and gods, the medicine of the motherland also talks about ghosts and gods, and Buddhism, Taoism, Christ and other religions all talk about ghosts and gods. Confucius, the founder of Confucianism, also said: "Ghosts and gods are virtuous, and they are magnificent!" Ghosts and gods are virtuous, and their wisdom is great! ”。 And he said, "Worship the ghosts and gods and stay away."

Why "respect"? For he has experienced and verified the incredible miracle, and he believes that it is not to be contemptuous, but to be respectful; Why "go away"? Because he did not have a thorough and complete understanding of phenomena that were difficult to explain and that he had not yet known, he told his disciples to "stay away" so as not to be punished for not knowing their laws.

This is a very wise move. Mr. Pu Songling simply compiled "Liao Zhai" based on a large number of interviews and knowledge, and the whole article is ghostly. There is almost no one who does not talk about ghosts and gods in history, that is****** a generation of great men the word "Shang Fang" is indispensable in the "Sacrifice to the Mother". The meaning of "Shang Fang" is to hope that the spirits of the deceased will come and enjoy the offerings offered by the living. And he described it more vividly in the poem "Sending the Plague God": "Thousands of villages and Xuli people leave arrows, and thousands of households Xiao Shu ghosts sing." It's so impressive that it's terrifying.

In the process of filming the movie "******", Guangxi Film Studio repeatedly appeared in various mysterious phenomena, and director Ding Yinnan had to sigh frequently: "The prime minister has a spirit, God help me!" Jiang Youshi, the film's production director, wrote a 160,000-word article "The Inside Story of the Filming of "******", which described in detail many magical phenomena that occurred during the filming process, such as: the traces of Changsha's start-up, the mysterious snow in the West Flower Hall, the magical "tree hanging" in Jilin, Wang Tiecheng's car accident adventure, etc. The book was published by the China Workers Publishing House in 1992.

It has also been reported that many people burn incense in front of the grave of General Xu Shiyou and pray for prayers...... How do you define ghosts? It's hard to answer.

According to Buddhist scriptures, ghosts and spirits are also one of the six realms of beings who have not yet been liberated from the cycle of birth and death, and they have the same emotions of joy, anger, sorrow and sorrow as human beings. From a scientific point of view, "ghosts and gods" are a kind of superphysical state of natural information, in an alternative state that has not yet been recognized, under certain conditions, people can receive or perceive, but the ancients used the term "ghosts and gods" to express it. Therefore, there is no need to be frightened by ghosts and gods.

Lao Tzu's "Tao Te Ching" said: "If you come to the world with the Tao, its ghosts are not gods." "What is the Word? The Tao is upright, the Tao is upright, the Tao is open-minded, and the Tao is compassion and wisdom.

A man of the Way, the ghosts and gods will not only not worship him, but will also protect him and help him. In short, for dead people or strange things, whether they open their eyes and see them, close their eyes and see them, see them in their dreams, feel them, experience them, listen to rumors, or hallucinate them, we will call them ghosts and spirits or ghosts and ghosts for the time being. I am afraid that everyone has experienced this phenomenon, and it exists objectively. If objective existence is superstition, then there is no materialism in the world.

The view of the cause and effect gods of the world celebrities

The ancient Greek philosopher Plato said in his book "The Garden of Ideals": "Whoever commits a sin in the world shall be punished tenfold after death; Those who are just and brave in their lifetime will be rewarded tenfold for each of them after death. "The idea of retribution is very clear.

The French thinker Voltaire was very rejecting superstition, but he believed in the karma of good and evil, saying: "Religion is necessary for a good society." The great physicist Isaac Newton said, "Limited knowledge often turns us away from God, and as knowledge grows deeper and deeper, it often brings us back to God." On his deathbed at the age of seventy-three, Charles Darwin, the author of the theory of evolution, said: "I observe the world, especially the characteristics of human beings, and I do not agree with the arbitrary view that the world is ruled by aimless forces, but I believe that there must be an all-pervasive, detailed, universal law for good and evil in the world." ”

Albert Einstein did not believe in God as a young man, but as he grew older, he became more and more convinced of God's existence, and the great scholar said on his deathbed the conclusion of his lifelong experience: "The universe is mysterious, and God exists." ”

The American scholar Gallup once studied 300 of the most famous scientists of the past three centuries and found that 92 percent of them surprisingly believed in the existence of God! When the presidents and governors of the United States took office, they held or touched the Bible with their left hand and solemnly swore to God and the flag with their right hand and prayed for God's blessing to their country and people. They all agreed that God is not only the embodiment of mercy and fraternity, but also has the supreme power to reward good and punish evil.

It can be seen from this that karma is a law that many wise people unanimously agree on and believe in, and it is not a low-level superstition of fools and fools. Therefore, the master of drama Shakespeare said in "A Midsummer Night's Dream on the Seaside": "Do not make any presumptuous comments about what you do not know, or you may pay the price of your life for the mistakes you have made." ”

Cherish the good law and spread it widely

"Jade Calendar Treasure Banknote" is a long-copied "Yin Law" good book, its publisher is a monk who has attained Taoism, its authenticity has been recorded in ancient Chinese Buddhist classics, and the Taoist classic "Immortal Tongjian" has also recorded this.

Later generations of Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism have famous teachers to write prefaces and research for it, and the contemporary Pure Land Sect monk Shi Jingkong attaches great importance to the persuasive effect of the "Jade Calendar Treasure Bank", and personally inscribes the title of the book to show his admiration. In May 1996, China's publishing house also published the content of the ancient version of "Jade Calendar Treasure Banknote". Because of its verifiable results and quick effect, it has been copied and preached by successive generations.

In order to make this book more understandable, we have repeatedly checked the ancient texts, translated and corrected them, corrected the errors and omissions in the current popular version, and added recent cause and effect examples in modern times, expanded the content of the chapters, and sincerely asked readers to introduce more to their relatives and friends after reading this book, and hope that good people and gentlemen and people of insight who have social conscience and are interested in moral construction will take active action, and persuade qualified good people to widely reprint and circulate and spread to the public, so that everyone can walk on the road of light together.

Saving people from fire and water, leading sentient beings to the path of goodness, bringing peace to society, and contributing to the construction of spiritual civilization and civic morality in our country, then your Dharma merits are great!

In fact, when the two gangs created "Dreaming", they mentioned that socialist construction must be grasped by the two civilizations together, and all kinds of problems will arise if they ignore whichever one is ignored, but fortunately, in addition to attracting great attention from national leaders, it has also attracted widespread attention from all walks of life, first of all, it is affirmed that this is definitely a good phenomenon.
