I killed people in past lives

It seems that they killed people in past lives when their fortune telling was assessed.

I have no memory, so I don't know who killed him or the reasons that led to it.

However, a memorial service was held for the one who killed him, but what should I do in a situation where I don't even know his name?

Even if it doesn't relieve karma, I wanted to do good deeds, so I came up with a memorial service as one of them.

Complete this life

Since our existence in this life is the result of our actions in past lives, we have already settled our accounts, including good acts and bad acts.
Just as you can't add seasoning now to food you've already eaten, you can't directly atone for misdeeds you've done in past lives in this life.
There is no choice but to complete this life according to the Buddha's teachings.

Please repent with all your heart.

I read it. If you think that way, please sincerely tell the Buddha about that crime and the many other misdeeds you have committed, and repent everything.
The Buddha will definitely accept your feelings.
Then the sins you have committed will go away, and you will be cleansed.

If you don't mind, please put your hands together with the Buddha every morning to work.

It's better not to take all of the fortune teller's words seriously


It seems like they have killed people in past lives.

Living things in this world maintain their own lives within the food chain. In reality, humans eat three meals in the morning, noon, and night. Also, we receive a variety of plants and animals in our meals. They have received the lives of some kind of animal or plant, and they are alive. In that sense, there is no doubt that people who lived in past lives and people living in this world are killing the lives of some kind of animal or plant. There is no doubt that Yo-Ume lived by receiving the lives of some kind of animal or plant in past lives. If the fortune teller said, “I have killed the lives of animals and plants,” I think it's a correct statement.
“It's like I killed people in past lives.” I think that statement is quite doubtful. Even when it comes to past lives, I don't think fortune tellers specifically explain whether it was a previous life just before, a previous life many generations ago, or a previous life tens of generations ago. Well, if you go back to the past in terms of “hitting a bad number of guns,” there may be people who participated in wars. However, since specific dates, places, and partner names cannot be specified, there is no choice but to say that it is extremely doubtful whether it is actually possible to anticipate Yo-Ume's past lives. “This fortune teller can see past lives.” I think it's just a business mess.

Fortune tellers advocate being “visible” in terms of business, even if they can't see past lives. Even if the fact that “killed a person” cannot be specified, they try to make the counselor uneasy and come to fortune telling over and over again while blurting out “it seems like they have killed people in past lives.”

At a crossroads in life, I think there are many times when we get lost in making decisions and want to discuss various things. I think there are many people who knock on fortune tellers' doors there. Fortune tellers use tools such as bamboo and tarot to counsel the counselor's worries and concerns. However, there are also fortune tellers who make the spirits of their ancestors and Mizuko into bad people, and blackmail them by making up misdeeds in past lives. It's a good thing to do memorial services and do good deeds, but memorial services and good deeds that go right and left in response to a fortune teller's dubious commission are a matter of thought, aren't they?

A rebellious marriage is also a good marriage

“You killed people in the past” is, in a sense, a very irresponsible phrase.
I don't know what kind of fortune telling it is, but what should I do? It will be.
If so, I want that fortune teller or appraiser to teach me who it is and how to do it, and even proper solutions. I think so.
Even if it is said one step at a time, it will only return and raise anxiety.

Anyway, since there are probably various reasons for being born into this world, I think the keyword “memorial service” was also included in one of them, so it would be fine to start with what “memorial service” is, so I hope you can establish a Buddhist relationship.

I think that's why we exist too.
