47 irror of the Heart By Master Cheng Yen Drawing by Lee Wee Chong Taking Good Care of Our Minds armic causes, conditions, fruits and retributions form an interdependent cycle. The fruits we reap in this life are from the seeds we planted in previous lifetimes. This is just like how a seed requires sun, water and soil to sprout. There must be both causes and conditions; only when many causes and conditions come together will there be fruits. We can create our conditions, but we cannot change our karma. Therefore, in this life, we must take good care of our minds. K * This article is extracted from the book “Mirror of the Heart”. TZU CHI 123
