If you like to do charity, But you just have got no money; Don't worry, just send out your compassionate heart, and together with your kind and loving thoughts, To all those whom you wish to give and help. A kind word here, a caring thought there is as charitable as the money that others share. When you encourage others to do charity, and also rejoice in setting animals free, though the participation may look insignificant, Your good, loving thoughts make all the difference. heaven and earth, so high so near, within without, what's rich what's poor?!
If in this life one eats excessively and waste food. in the next life one will suffer from hunger pangs and throat problems.
The ancient sages say: "A face devout of hatred is like an offering. A mouth free from hateful words emits fragrance. A heart empty of hatred is like a priceless gem. Not created nor destroyed. the eternal true stand". A heart free from hatred and filled with Equanimity is completely whole and pure.
Many people do not really understand the cause of bearing a prodigal son. the reason is mainly due to not doing any meritorious deeds in the past lives; moreover there were karmic debts still unsettled. By not doing evil, by doing lots of good deeds so as to accumulate merits, only will one have a truely good and fortunate child.
These was a farmer who used a piece of string to pull out a cow's tongue. Later in his life he had 3 sons- all were mute. This is the karmic Retribution for being cruel to animals.
When I am happy and contented, and everything good comes my way I start to think: I am now very fortunate. This must be the karmic results of my good deeds in my past life. However, in this life, I shall continue to do charitable deeds... when one is happy and contented, it is the best time to do more good deeds and accumulate merits.
