bohiruci SG This sutra in chinese is Fo shuo san shi ying guo jing isnt a sutra spoken by Buddha but a Venerable known as Fo yin To understand Cause and Effect for Past ,present and future lifetime it is best to read the Merits of the Earth Store Bodhisattva Sutra
bohiruci SG i would rather say why this life you full of illness is due to too many killing of live animals in the past life , so this life all the "woeful relatives" resides in various part of your body ,causing cancer ,tumor
An Eternal Now SG That is possible.. the karma of killing will result in many diseases. My dharma teacher too spoke of her need for an operation some years ago as having its karmic cause in her killing of clams and shells when she was young. (she used to collect them for cooking)
TWE SG If thats the case then mean he/she should do more releasing of animals to the wild ? How abt the case of a mother killing fish n crabs to feed her family ?
justdoit77 SG Just to note that there are some sutras that is not directly spoken by buddha himself, but the people later still regard it as sutra because the teaching is very profound and the authors are those great masters that has very high attainment in their practice.
