Why do I still get sick and have difficulty in practicing Buddhism? What is going on?

Buddhist philosophy of life

Question: I have a fellow practitioner who, after learning Buddhism, said that it was good to believe in Buddhism or that. But later his child became ill and his health was not good. Now he is discouraged and regretful. Now he does not believe in Buddhism. So what happened?

Master Cheng Gang: That’s right,Anyone’s retribution from birth to death in this life is based on the results. The retribution of this period is the result of cause and effect. It is discovered through karma. It is discovered through the good karma and bad karma we have done in past lives. It is from the perspective of results.

If our life is full of disasters and suffering from various diseases, this is a bitter fruit. Then this bitter fruit does not fall from the sky, does not grow from the earth, and is not given by others. It is a result of one's own sin. Testing the cause from the effect proves that the causes we created in the past were not good, and that is why we discovered the bitter consequences in this life.

Karma is created by the heart, IWe can correctly understand suffering through Buddhist teachings, so we can treat it correctly without breaking the jar. It is a causal result.


When we have the Dharma, we can repent well in front of the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. We should repent of our past sins of greed, anger, ignorance, killing, stealing, sexual immorality, lying, fighting, and causing harm. We will be purified by repentance, and we will gain peace and happiness through repentance.

Just like clothes, although they are greasy and dusty, they are not the essence of the clothes. We can restore the cleanliness of the clothes after washing them. The sinful karma is eliminated, and the bitter consequences will naturally end.

So we make a vow to never do bad karma again. From now on, we must follow the Buddha's teachings, but develop a bright mind, a mind of benefit, and not a mind of harm. In this way, we can reverse the passive situation in the past and gradually become superior.

The Buddha's wish to come to the world is to change our minds, turn our confused hearts into enlightenment, and turn our dirty and evil defilements into standards and purification. Then if we are determined to study Buddhism now, we can develop the intention to benefit and practice all good Dharma. The causes we create now and the realm of results in the future will be extraordinary.

The causes we create now will have consequences in the future; The suffering we suffer now is the result of past causes. If we can correctly understand and treat suffering correctly, we can change this passive situation and escape the suffering of life and death.
