What is the Buddhist view of cause and effect?

There is no independent thing in the world, and there is no permanent and unchanging thing. Everything arises from the combination of causes and conditions.

The theory of dependent origination believes that things in the world (all conditioned laws) do not exist out of thin air and cannot exist alone. They must rely on the combination of various causes and conditions to be established. Once the forming causes and conditions are lost, the things themselves will disappear. Returning to nothingness, the law of cause and effect that "all dharmas arise due to conditions, and all dharmas cease due to conditions" is called "dependent origination".

The theory of dependent origination includes two parts: cause and condition. The cause is the factor and the condition is the condition. The cause is the main one and the condition is the auxiliary one. When causes and conditions come together, they arise; when causes and conditions disperse, they perish. Since the birth and death of all dharmas are caused by causes and conditions, then the existence or destruction or destruction of all dharmas also has causes and reasons to follow. Every effect must have a cause, and the cause will produce the effect, and the cause and effect must correspond. All conditioned laws in the world have no independence or permanence. They must rely on the combination of "cause" and "condition" to have "effect". What the "Dependent Origination" method explains is the relationship between cause, condition, and effect. Cause, condition, and effect exist in dependence on each other and have no absolute independence.
