(Originally in Chinese)
        The more we endure, the less we feel that we are enduring, and the more aware we become
of our rising level.



Hualien, Formosa    April 11, 1989  
(Originally in Chinese)

        If we become delighted and arrogant when people praise us and offer us temptations, then that is very dangerous. On each one of these occasions, we must promptly introspect, and ask: "Did I use the ego in performing the act just now? Was I overjoyed or arrogant?"
We must introspect every day.



Tainan, Formosa    May 21, 1989  
(Originally in Chinese)

        By observing the precept of not telling anything but the truth, whatever we say will benefit others,
and whatever we say will come true.
