As a retired lawyer and a widow, my mother-in-law became ill and moved to Ukiah, in her late seventies, so my husband Ernie Waugh and I could help her. When she passed away at the age of 84, I recited the Earth Store S\u016btra for her. I continued on, resolving to recite some part of the s\u016btra every day for three years for her sake. After three years I realized other people needed help so I continued cycling through the s\u016btra, a little at a time, every day when possible, starting over when I finished. At one point I thought, the s\u016btra says that through devotion to Earth Store, you can see where a relative has been reborn. That night I had a dream.

He made me realize how important the themes of filiality and karma were in the Earth Store S\u016btra. I think that Karma is a concept of moral causality intrinsic to Buddhism. Simply stated, you create favorable or unfavorable conditions for yourself through your own wholesome or unwholesome past actions of body, mouth, and mind. One definition of wisdom, or praj\u00f1\u0101, is understanding cause and effect. When you are creating bad karma for yourself, acting out of greed, anger, or confusion, you may be oblivious to the consequences. When things are not according with your wishes and you are suffering, you are asking, \u201cWhy is this happening to me? Is it Fate? An angry god punishing me? Pure randomness? Simply bad luck?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>\u5728\u5ff5\u8aa6\u300a\u5730\u85cf\u7d93\u300b\u5e7e\u5341\u5e74\u4e4b\u5f8c\uff0c\u6211\u5f88\u9ad8\u8208\u807d\u5230\u65b9\u4e08\u548c\u5c1a\u5f8b\u6cd5\u5e2b\u5728\u4eca\u5e748\u670831\u65e5\uff0c\u5373\u5730\u85cf\u6cd5\u6703\u7684\u524d\u4e00\u665a\uff0c\u8b1b\u8ff0\u4e86\u6709\u95dc\u5730\u85cf\u83e9\u85a9\u7684\u9ede\u6ef4\u3002\u4ed6\u8b93\u6211\u610f\u8b58\u5230\uff0c\u300a\u5730\u85cf\u7d93\u300b\u4e2d\u7684\u5b5d\u9053\u548c\u696d\u529b\u4e3b\u984c\u662f\u5982\u6b64\u91cd\u8981\u3002\u6211\u8a8d\u70ba\uff0c\u696d\u529b\u662f\u4f5b\u6559\u4e2d\u7684\u9053\u5fb7\u56e0\u679c\u89c0\u5ff5\u3002\u7c21\u55ae\u4f86\u8aaa\uff0c\u5c31\u662f\u901a\u904e\u4f60\u81ea\u5df1\u904e\u53bb\u8eab\u3001\u53e3\u3001\u610f\u4e09\u696d\u6240\u9020\u7684\u5584\u60e1\u884c\u70ba\uff0c\u9020\u5c31\u4e86\u5c0d\u81ea\u5df1\u65e5\u5f8c\u6216\u8005\u6709\u5229\u6216\u8005\u4e0d\u5229\u7684\u5f8c\u679c\u3002\u667a\u6167\u6216\u822c\u82e5\u7684\u5176\u4e2d\u4e00\u7a2e\u5b9a\u7fa9\u5c31\u662f\u660e\u767d\u56e0\u679c\u3002\u96d6\u7136\u4f60\u56e0\u7232\u8caa\u3001\u55d4\u3001\u7661\u800c\u9020\u4e86\u60e1\u696d\uff0c\u4f46\u4f60\u53ef\u80fd\u5c0d\u5f8c\u679c\u6beb\u7121\u5bdf\u89ba\u3002\u7136\u5f8c\u7576\u4e8b\u60c5\u4e0d\u5982\u4f60\u6240\u9858\u7684\u6642\u5019\uff0c\u6b63\u7576\u4f60\u5728\u53d7\u82e6\u7684\u6642\u5019\uff0c\u4f60\u6703\u554f\uff1a\u300c\u70ba\u4ec0\u9ebc\u6703\u767c\u751f\u9019\u7a2e\u4e8b\uff1f\u662f\u547d\u904b\u55ce\uff1f\u662f\u795e\u751f\u6c23\u4e86\u6240\u4ee5\u5728\u61f2\u7f70\u6211\u55ce\uff1f\u9084\u662f\u8aaa\uff0c\u53ea\u662f\u7d14\u7cb9\u7684\u5076\u7136\uff1f\u6216\u8005\u5c31\u53ea\u662f\u8d70\u9709\u904b\uff1f\u300d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The workings of Karma, as described in Buddhist texts, can seem inexplicable.

A virtuous Brahman woman makes offerings to Enlightenment-Flower Sam\u0101dhi Self-Mastery King Tath\u0101gata, wanting to know where her recently deceased mother was reborn, and wanting to help her mother attain a good rebirth. As the Buddha relates to Ma\u00f1ju\u015br\u012b Bodhisattva, she fears her mother\u2019s bad habits may have caused her to be born in the lower realms and sells her house to make offerings. She gazes at the image of Enlightenment-Flower Sam\u0101dhi Self-Mastery Buddha and suddenly hears his voice. Following his instructions, she finds herself in the hells, conversing with the ghost king, Poisonless, who tells her that her mother had been reborn in the hells. But her mother and others born there with her that day had been released and were experiencing bliss in the heavens, thanks to her daughter\u2019s virtue and meritorious deeds. The Brahman woman awoke, as from a dream, and vowed that \u201cuntil the end of future eons I will respond to beings suffering for their offenses by using many expedient devices to bring about their liberation.\u201d She is now Earth Store Bodhisattva.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>\u5730\u85cf\u83e9\u85a9\u767c\u9858\u7684\u6545\u4e8b\u6e90\u8d77\u65bc\u300a\u5730\u85cf\u7d93\u300b\u7b2c\u4e00\u54c1\u3002\u4e00\u4f4d\u5fb7\u884c\u9ad8\u5c1a\u7684\u5a46\u7f85\u9580\u5973\u4f9b\u990a\u89ba\u83ef\u5b9a\u81ea\u5728\u738b\u5982\u4f86\uff0c\u60f3\u8981\u77e5\u9053\u5979\u525b\u53bb\u4e16\u7684\u6bcd\u89aa\u6295\u751f\u4f55\u8655\uff0c\u4e26\u5e0c\u671b\u5e6b\u52a9\u6bcd\u89aa\u7372\u5f97\u5584\u9053\u7684\u6295\u751f\u3002\u4f5b\u9640\u5c0d\u6587\u6b8a\u83e9\u85a9\u8aaa\uff0c\u9019\u4f4d\u5a46\u7f85\u9580\u5973\u64d4\u5fc3\u5979\u6bcd\u89aa\u7684\u4e0d\u826f\u7fd2\u6c23\u53ef\u80fd\u5c0e\u81f4\u5979\u6295\u751f\u5230\u4e0b\u754c\uff0c\u65bc\u662f\u5979\u8ce3\u6389\u4e86\u623f\u5b50\u505a\u4f9b\u990a\u3002\u5979\u77bb\u79ae\u89ba\u83ef\u5b9a\u81ea\u5728\u738b\u5982\u4f86\u7684\u50cf\uff0c\u7a81\u7136\u807d\u5230\u4f5b\u9640\u7684\u8072\u97f3\u3002\u6309\u7167\u4f5b\u9640\u7684\u6307\u793a\uff0c\u5979\u767c\u73fe\u81ea\u5df1\u9032\u5165\u4e86\u5730\u7344\uff0c\u4e26\u8207\u9b3c\u738b\u7121\u6bd2\u5c0d\u8a71\uff0c\u9b3c\u738b\u544a\u8a34\u5979\uff0c\u5979\u6bcd\u89aa\u5148\u524d\u5df2\u58ae\u5730\u7344\u3002\u4f46\u662f\u5979\u6bcd\u89aa\u548c\u4e00\u540c\u6295\u751f\u5230\u5730\u7344\u7684\u5176\u4ed6\u773e\u751f\uff0c\u540c\u4e00\u5929\u5df2\u7d93\u89e3\u812b\uff0c\u6b63\u5728\u5929\u754c\u4eab\u53d7\u5929\u798f\uff0c\u9019\u4e00\u5207\u90fd\u56e0\u5979\u5973\u5152\u7684\u5fb7\u884c\u548c\u529f\u5fb7\u3002\u5a46\u7f85\u9580\u5973\u50cf\u5f9e\u5922\u4e2d\u9192\u4f86\u4e00\u6a23\uff0c\u767c\u9858\u300c\u9858\u6211\u76e1\u672a\u4f86\u52ab\uff0c\u61c9\u6709\u7f6a\u82e6\u773e\u751f\uff0c\u5ee3\u8a2d\u65b9\u4fbf\uff0c\u4f7f\u4ee4\u89e3\u812b\u300d\u3002\u5979\uff08\u5a46\u7f85\u9580\u5973\uff09\u5982\u4eca\u5c31\u662f\u5730\u85cf\u83e9\u85a9\u3002<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-e312e49e6b18e8d230ba02937045c84f wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"color:#6f3c3c\">D\u0100NA P\u0100RAM\u012aTA <strong>\u4f48\u65bd\u6ce2\u7f85\u871c<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At the beginning of the Earth Store S\u016btra, the Buddha emits light clouds and wondrous sounds.

To me, giving creates a fundamental movement in the attention of the heart-mind from selfishness to compassion.
