Cat's Eye consists of three stories, and the feeling after reading it is.
What you see and experience is often not necessarily true and reliable, much like the naive dialectics of China.
The first story was about quitting smoking, and it just so happened that I was just the second day after quitting. It is often difficult for a person to break through, but the punishment is not on himself, but on the protagonist's wife and children, he does not and will not receive any punishment when he smokes, but his wife will dance on the grid, next will be his baby daughter. The male protagonist is based on his love for his wife and daughter, and he has always held on to it. But once had a fluke mentality, but was punished. It makes a lot of sense. Everything we do and know will have a result. This result may not appear at this moment, or it may not appear in ourselves, but everything is a connected whole. It will react at some point, some stage in the future. So Freud said, "Everyone's adulthood and future are influenced by their own childhood events and experiences, and they will accompany them throughout their lives." Buddhism is about a causal, causal cycle, which has been tried and tested. We often set a lot of cause and effect in our subconscious, and push things to cycle in the direction of cause and effect set by ourselves.
The second story is about cheating and punishment. Things tend to reverse, one moment to others, the next moment how others will treat you. In fact, it is the relationship between cause and effect. The story is simple and the contrasts are strong.
The third story is about the cat herself. It tells you a truth, what you see is not necessarily true, it may be the opposite. The demon in the story killed the parrot, but when the couple went in, it was a cat. So the cat became a murderer and a violent person in their eyes. But it was this violent man who saved the little girl in a time of crisis. Right and wrong are sometimes not so absolute.
The stories that the three cats experience or see, me and not me, right and wrong, true and false. All conditioned methods are like dream bubbles, like dew, and like electricity.
You must look at the world with a kindness and a normal heart. Those who are guilty are not necessarily guilty, and there may be punishment in the next moment for evil. What we have to do is to maintain a sincere heart and be kind to the people and things around us, that's all. Life is actually not complicated.
