The nature of money is from blood, tears, and sweat. If we take money from others, we can find it hard to feel free or peaceful. Clean money can help raise our descendants to become good persons: while dirty money will ruin our life and our descendants' lives. Even though clean money isn't too easy to earn, it can bring happiness to us for many lives later.

Everyone should get rid of their greedy mind to prevent themselves from committing new sins, especially those who are more fortunate than others. Treasurers, powerful people, widely adored people, talented people, confidential document holders... are people with many opportunities to get bribes. Such people have to pay more special attention to getting rid of the greed in their hearts. Upon death, all possessions will be left behind, only bad or good karma will follow us forever. Greed cannot bring serenity, only ethics do.

The people who always try to repay the old favor will live in peace, and will not do evil things. Many other ethics will follow.

The rule is that if you have a good heart, do good deeds, and treat people well, good luck will come your way. The fundamental key to success is to correct the mind for the better.

It is expensive to behave like above, but what we will receive later is invaluable. Thinking of people’s needs makes us work hard, but it will make our life interesting. A life of care and responsibility for our community makes our existence beautiful. It’s so much better than a life of selfishness because a selfish life only causes us troubles and guilt.

Whales are lovely and precious creatures. They are even regarded as the sacred creature of the ocean. People should open their hearts not only to each other, but also to highly spiritual creatures. Together, we can bring happiness and peace to the Earth. We shouldn't think that the killing and hunting of whales out there is not related to us. "It is related to our conscience, our wisdom, and our descendants' future."

When committing a crime, we often think it is not a sin but try to avoid admitting guilt, oppose punishment and deny retribution. Thus, it is extremely hard to go against that kind of mentality. But we must educate, persuade them to admit their faults, gladly accept the punishment and believe in painful karmic retribution. Though it is difficult, we have to do it all to save their lives and help maintain the long-term stability of the society.

Our morality and wisdom must be nourished through each small act. This is because things are not as small as they are.

If we want to win over ourselves, then understanding morality is just the beginning. The important thing is strong willpower to practice, being resilient and the main secret is your own blessings. Thanks to the power of blessings, we could overcome many obstacles, avoid committing many sins to live a pure and moral life. Do not ever think that we are so talented and strong and would be able to overcome every temptation!

Many "consultants" give us solutions where it requires less effort but still makes a big change in our destiny: money flowing in like water, getting rapid promotion in career, no hardship in working or get a lot of love, etc. However, those solutions have a serious mistake that is losing the fairness of the heaven and the earth. The more efforts we make, the better our results are. We have to take care of others, then happiness will come to our life. We have to live nobly. Then one-day happiness will not be out of our reach.
