LaoLiang Posted March 17, 2009 at 01:34 AM Author Report Posted March 17, 2009 at 01:34 AM Guoke, thanks. Could you put it into context by writing a few sentence? Quote
Guoke Posted March 17, 2009 at 02:07 AM Report Posted March 17, 2009 at 02:07 AM 佛家说,凡事有因必有果,你现在做什么事情,日后就要承担它的后果。 善恶到头终有报,只争来早与来迟。 世事无侥幸,事出必有因。 日本警方曾把此类杀人事件称为“无因犯罪”,但就犯罪学而言,事出必有因;他分析杀人者的动机,多是长期压抑挫折,无法自我调整、反省,最后把责任推给社会,从社会找“替罪羔羊”。 Quote
hidden12345 Posted March 17, 2009 at 02:23 PM Report Posted March 17, 2009 at 02:23 PM Although slightly different in emotional undertone:善有善报,恶有恶报。 And if you want to be slightly more 白话 about it: 一切事物都是因缘合和 and even more 平白:必然因果关系 (E: causal relationship) And a nice way of saying "every action" : 一言一行 Quote
