Because ordinary people are so affected by hatred and love, they are unable to be impartial. To be unbiased in handling affairs or disputes, familiarity with others and preconceptions of right or wrong must be put aside. Don’t be swayed by emotions. Then you will naturally be impartial and fair in whatever you do.

There are three sets of Bodhisattva Precepts. First, the restraining precepts, for elimination of all bad behavior. Second, the precepts for cultivating goodness, to accumulate all that is good. Third, the caring precepts, which guide and benefit all sentient beings. The Bodhisattva Precepts are inclusive of all of the Buddhadharma. If all of you can practice the Three Sets of Pure Precepts, you will naturally become a Bodhisattva.
