A touching story about the relationship between humans and animals

The dog who reincarnated into a human being

There is such a story in the Notes of Youtai Xianguan written by Yu Yue of the Qing Dynasty.

In Yushan County, Jiangxi, there is an ancient temple called Shuinan Temple. The abbot of the temple is named Yue

Yin. He is about sixty years old and is a highly virtuous monk. , often chant sutras and practice without leaving home.

Yueyin has kept a dog for more than ten years. He is quite spiritual. Whenever Yueyin chants sutras,

whenever he knocks the wooden fish, the dog will come wagging its tail. Listening to the scriptures, people in the temple, regardless of monks or laymen, were all surprised when they saw this situation.

Later, the old dog suddenly contracted some kind of leprosy. Its fur fell off and it smelled

but it still came to listen to the sutras every day as before. One day, Yueyin Suddenly he told his apprentice: "This old dog is very annoying when it is infected. Take it out and kill it!" After hearing this, the apprentice was extremely surprised. He knew what he meant, but because Yueyin was always solemn and solemn, the disciples didn't dare to disobey, so they had to call the dog out, but they couldn't bear to kill it, so they had to temporarily imprison it

, don’t go to listen to the scriptures.

But three days later, the old dog took the opportunity to sneak out to listen to the scriptures again. Yueyin couldn't help but saw it

He was shocked and said to his disciples: "You didn't Killing this dog may cause trouble." So he quickly ordered his apprentice to go to a certain house in a certain village to inquire, and sure enough, he found a potbellied dog. The pregnant woman was still unable to give birth after three days and her life was in danger.

Even the doctors were helpless.

After Yueyin learned about it, he told his disciples: "If you can't bear to kill the dog, how can you bear

to kill this woman? If the dog doesn't die, the woman's stomach will fall apart. The fetus will not be born!" Therefore, he ordered his apprentice to kill the dog and immediately go to a certain house to inquire. Sure enough, the woman had given birth to a boy. Yueyin said to his apprentice: "This dog, because of the good results achieved by listening to the sutras

, will be entrusted to be a child of a certain family. In the future, he will have a small salary and a position. I may

If you can’t see it, you may be able to bear witness.”

When the child gets older, he often comes to the temple and is reluctant to do so every time.

When She left, Yueyin often touched his head and said: "How good! You are indeed not ignorant of your roots.

But because you still have a small amount of wealth and honor, it is not suitable to stay here."

When the child grew up, he became a minor official and his family had considerable savings. In his later years, he often stayed in temples and invested heavily in renovating old and dilapidated temples. The temple and

supported the monks in the temple, and later lived to be more than seventy years old before passing away.

An interesting point in this story is that if the dog does not die, the fetus in the woman’s belly

will not be born. From the perspective of causality, this is The dog and this woman had a fate

in their previous lives, and they were destined to be her sons this time. But looking at it from another perspective, let us return

to one theme, that is Commonly discussed: When does the soul enter the womb?

Some opinions believe that at the moment of fertilization, the soul enters the fetus, otherwise the fetus

would not be able to grow. Some think it is a few months later; At the moment of birth, there are quite different opinions and no conclusive conclusions, but most of them tend to support the view that entering the womb at the moment of birth. Most of the examples They all support this theory, just like the story of the dog reincarnating

.

But there is also a doubt in this theory, that is, if the soul is

reincarnated at the moment of birth, then how does the fetus grow without the participation of the soul in the previous reincarnation< /p>

? Or how is the relationship between the fetus and the soul to be reincarnated established? Because according to common sayings and opinions, if the soul does not enter the fetus, it will lead to fetal miscarriage.

Below, there is a true story that may answer this confusing question

a little bit.

When does the soul reincarnate?

The Venerable Acharn was a distinguished monk in Thailand (passed away in 1949). This is a story that he experienced personally.

One year, when the Venerable was staying in a certain village, an old woman who was deeply influenced by him came to ask him about an incident that happened while she was meditating. Question, she said that she went to bed last night. When her mind reached a high degree of concentration, she suddenly saw a tiny thread running out of her "heart" She felt very surprised, so she decided to follow it,

Wanting to know where this "heart line" was going, she found this "heart line",

Even ran into her niece's womb.

When the old woman came out of meditation, she felt extremely uneasy because she knew that her

niece had been pregnant for more than a month, so she came to ask Aga for advice. Venerable Man, be prepared to listen to his advice.

Venerable Acharn closed his eyes and meditated for a while, then opened his eyes and told her:

When she meditates next time, if she sees that " When the "heart thread" runs out, she must

cut it with an extremely firm and unshakable determination. If she is not determined enough, she will be "reborn" as her niece after death

In her womb, she became her child, because her heart

has always been attracted to her niece.

Two days later, she happily came to see Venerable Acharn Mun and said that when the "heart line" ran to her niece again, she immediately acted with determination She was determined to cut it off. When she meditated again the next night, she found that there was no trace of the line. What was strange was that when the old woman cut off the line, After a "heart line", her niece had a miscarriage.

After hearing this strange incident, the disciples of the Venerable were very confused and came to ask for advice.

The Venerable, the Venerable told them that a person’s mind is very subtle. And it is difficult to detect it. If you have not developed meditation, it is difficult to protect it. This old woman loved her niece so much that her subconscious mind "slip away". "Go out", even if she is still alive

but a place has been prepared for her next life. If she is not aware or unable to make up her mind

to cut off this tie, then she She will be destined to be reborn in her niece's womb and become her

daughter.

It is discovered from this story that although a person is not dead yet, due to the role of "mental power"

whether consciously or subconsciously, he has already determined his destination in the next life. contact, and has a "shaping" effect on

one's "afterlife". In other words, although each of us

is not dead yet, we are all at the same time. When it comes to participating in or deciding our destination or appearance in our next life, the closer we get to death, the more decisive influence our "mental power" has!

Therefore, when the soul enters the fetus, it does depend on the person and the cause. There is no definite rule

because even if the soul does not enter the fetus, there can still be some relationship between the soul and the fetus. The shaping effect of this relationship

.

People who were reincarnated as pigs

In the mutual reincarnation of animals and humans, what is most commonly seen in general classics is not

human beings Dogs are the reincarnation between humans and pigs, because in China, pigs are the main source of meat

So being born as a pig will naturally lead to the fate of being slaughtered, so investing< /p>

Being born as a pig is not only a tragic fate, but also contains the meaning of karma.

The following is this shocking story about the reincarnation of humans and pigs.

At a banquet, I sat at the same table with the wife of a legislator surnamed Dong. During the chat, I learned that although the couple surnamed Dong were busy with social activities, they had been vegetarians since their early years. He curiously asked about the reason. Mrs. Dong said that it was because of her uncle. Her uncle said that he could remember things from many lifetimes ago and said that he He was reincarnated as a pig, and he became a pig for more than one life, and described to her the pain of being slaughtered.

He said that when the pig was killed, the pain did not end there. He still had a very keen sense of the flesh. When the pork was bought back at the market, he would always The more minced the pork is or the longer it is cooked, the more painful it will be. Especially when making pork into ham, salt must be soaked

into the skin and meat. The pain experienced during the process of being exposed to the sun, wind, and wind is really beyond human comprehension

What’s more, this kind of pain must wait until people have completely finished eating the ham

End, that is to say, the pain of a pig does not end after death, it must wait until people finish eating all the pork!

He said that he had been a pig for countless lives, and he was still frightened every time he thought about the pain of being a pig. He said that originally, King Yama He was also sentenced to be a pig again in this life. He was so frightened that he ran away, but the judge quickly grabbed a handful of pig hair and threw it behind his back. Come, so he still has a bunch of pig hair on his back in this life. After speaking, he took off his clothes

to show that what he said was indeed true.

Mrs. Dong said that after hearing her uncle’s story, the couple stopped eating all meat.

Although this story is not first-hand information, it is extremely credible and quite thought-provoking.

It should not be dismissed as an ordinary story.

Coincidentally, an author signed by "Ji Ming" also told a story about his personal encounter in some newspapers and periodicals.

He said that in 1937, when he was living in Guangfu Temple in Xichang, Sichuan, one day he went down the mountain early in the morning and wanted to go into the city to do business. There was a lake at the foot of the mountain and he wanted to go into the city. He had to take a boat to cross the lake first.

There were more than ten people in the boat at that time, including three or four shepherd boys, about eleven or twelve years old. He

found that there was one shepherd boy among them. He inserted his hands into his waist and covered them with clothes, as if he was afraid of being seen by others

He didn't pay special attention to it at first. However, not long after, another naughty shepherd boy suddenly took the shepherd boy's hand and covered it with clothes. He pulled out his hand, and it turned out that the shepherd boy's hand turned out to be a pig's trotter with hair. The people on the boat who saw it at the time were shocked.

At this time, a local old man who was on the same boat explained to him that this shepherd boy could remember the events of his previous three lives. According to the shepherd boy, he had been reincarnated as a pig in his previous three lives. After being killed and

hanging it on the street for sale, every cut made him feel pain in his heart. It was not until he was completely sold that his soul could escape and be reincarnated again. He remembered This was the case in the first two lives.

But in his previous life, when he was slaughtered and sold on the street, he still couldn't sell them all after a long time.

When there was only one hoof left, he felt pain It was really unbearable, so he struggled hard

. At this time, his soul suddenly broke away from the pig's trotters and was reincarnated. Although he was lucky enough to be human,

but because of the "remaining hoof" The "karmic debt" has not yet been paid off, so it affects this life, and there is still a hoof left to show

people.

Like the previous one, this story of reincarnation of a human and a pig is still horrifying!

Philosopher Hume said that animals are very much like humans in many ways, so naturally we cannot

say that only humans are allowed to have souls, but animals are not allowed to have so-called souls. , Hume's statement is not only logical, but can also be generalized to mean that if humans can have reincarnation,

of course animals can also have reincarnation, since both humans and animals can have reincarnation. Reincarnation, then it is extremely logical that humans and animals will reincarnate in each other!

Do you believe it? If you have the meaning of reincarnation, it is very subtle and profound. Although

the current scientific community is still torn between belief and disbelief, we firmly believe that there is more truth

and The secret will be slowly revealed in the near future.

Although we can only touch lightly on reincarnation so far, if someone sees this

and still thinks that there is no "credible" evidence for reincarnation, we may also Like

Dr. Stevenson, he will ask you in a tolerant but firm tone:

"If you have it, what kind of evidence will make you believe it?" Does reincarnation exist?
