The rich should nourish their body with virtues. Being virtuous is a basic requirement. When one does not build a solid foundation in cultivating virtues but instead only pays attention to the trivialities of decorating one’s house and one’s body, how misguided it is!

If you did not have great wisdom, and great courage, how would you believe in Buddhist teachings? Even if you believed in the teachings, how would you come to take the precepts? By courageously and wisely taking the precepts, then it is as stated in the sutras, “When sentient beings receive the precepts of the Buddhas, they thereupon enter the ranks of the Buddhas.” I wish that after taking the precepts, everyone will uphold the Precept Dharma and realize Buddhahood together in the future!

Delivering sentient beings is a step-by-step process. First, you must uphold the precepts—this is the foundation. You must be able to save yourself, and then practice the great Bodhi Path of saving all sentient beings.

If a tiger wanted to eat you, would you be willing to be eaten? If a bad person wanted to kill you, would you happily be killed? “Do not do to others what you would not wish for yourself.” See things through other beings’ eyes—if you would not be willing, then do not carelessly take other lives; do not eat meat anymore.
