One day, you will be able to achieve anything with great ease and attain the Buddha Way.

You can’t eradicate all unwholesome deeds if you don’t uphold the Five Precepts. Your cultivation of myriad practices, let alone becoming a Buddha, won’t be successful if you don’t uphold Bodhisattva Precepts. If you can’t eliminate unwholesome deeds and cultivate good ones, how can you possibly receive the unsurpassed happiness and benefits from the Buddhadharma? You should diligently cultivate your blessings!
