Khenpo Dazhen: How can he turn kindness and revenge into Taoism?

No matter what circumstances are you under, as a practitioner, especially as a Mahayana practitioner, you cannot develop anger, and you cannot harm sentient beings.For example, if you have always been helpful to him. Treat him like your own children, he will not only fail to repay his kindness, but will also hurt himself and treat himself like his enemies.At this time, you cannot develop anger, nor can you hurt the other person.

Sometimes the other party is not unfamiliar with us, nor is it conflicts or conflicts with us, but has received our kindness and help from us. Not only do they not repay the kindness, they also hurt us.At this time, many people must be unbalanced and must not be able to figure it out.However, as a Mahayana practitioner, you cannot develop hatred or hurt the other person at this time; you must also treat him like your own children, and even treat him like your own sick children.

Parents love and spoil their children very much.Once the children feel uncomfortable and suffer from serious illness, parents will be more compassionate and caring to their children.We should also treat sentient beings in this way, and we should not develop hatred or hurt the other person because of this.

Why do you need to do this? First, you must first understand that this is also a kind of cause and effect.Repaying kindness with grudges and repaying kindness with grudges is also a kind of fate.We must have hurt each other in our previous life, and the other party must be a big enemy.Therefore, at this time we must treat each other well, so that we can achieve this fate and repay this debt.

If we don’t treat him well and instead hold a grudge against him, and even take revenge and hurt him, we will continue to create karma and continue to make enemies with him.Doing this will not only not be of great benefit to solving the problems in this world, but also you will also have to feel the same consequences in the future. This is meaningless, so you should practice forbearance.

Second, first of all, we must understand the fault of arisen in hatred.If we develop anger, our good roots and blessings will be destroyed.The Buddha said in the sutra that if a moment of hatred arises, it will destroy all the resources accumulated over a thousand kalpas.Therefore, the sins of hatred are very serious and the mistakes are very great.Therefore, you must practice forbearance and not develop anger towards the other party.In such a situation, we must observe our own mentality and consider the disadvantages of arousing hatred.

Third, we can think about the merits of forbearance.Being able to cultivate momentary forbearance will also accumulate a lot of merit.As a practitioner, it is very important to accumulate merit.We can accumulate our own merit through this method and through this opportunity, which is also a method.

Finally, we can also think about the merits of self-interest and others exchange and self-relative bodhicitta.If he repays his kindness with grievances, you can still treat him like you do to your own children, and even dedicate his merits to him; or you can also bear some of his pain and karma, this also belongs to cultivating oneself and exchanging oneself and others' bodhicitta, which is also very great.

Therefore, we must think about the disadvantages of arousing hatred and harming sentient beings, and then we must cultivate forbearance and bodhicitta.Practice these merits and practice these methods.Only in this way can we turn kindness and revenge into the Tao, otherwise it will be difficult.

Like I said a few days ago.In fact, by logic, sentient beings suffer from greed, anger, ignorance, arrogance, doubt and other afflictions.If it weren't for this, they wouldn't be able to treat us like this, nor would they hurt us like this.Therefore, we should feel pity and compassion for them, and should not feel hatred or hurt them.We should caress and treat our sick children in particular as well.Be more compassionate, more compassionate and more caring to them, this is the practice of the Buddhist children.
