{Buddhadharma} Causes and Conditions
Causes and conditions are not mere coincidence
Many people confuse causes and conditions with coincidence, or waiting passively. Some even use the lack of causes and conditions as an excuse to justify their laziness. Don't wait passively for causes and conditions; instead, try to bring them about. Nevertheless, once you've tried all you can but the plans you thought to be failure-proof just won't materialize, it's also the work of causes and conditions.
