Spells and bewitchment are heretical teachings. Do not mention something that is not true. It is not your place to talk about others' family matters. Needless to defend yourself when in a wrong position. Never say anything that may cause harm to people. Never spread unwholesome and detrimental news. It is better not to discuss mere hearsay. There is nothing to say about relationships. Never bring up anything that is not true. Hold back sharing your moments of embarrassment. Be sure to clarify your misunderstandings. Neighborhood rumors are just gossip. Think thrice before you speak out of anger. Mistakes are always being mentioned. Apologies should be said in person. Never speak again of past disputes. There is no need to mention what may dampen moods. Give your advice only according to circumstances. It does not hurt to mention past experiences.
- 赞美的语言好似香水 劝诫的开示好比甘露 善美的歌曲扣人心弦 励志的文章让人上进 滴水的功用生长万物 和风的吹拂清凉人心 洪钟的鸣声惊醒迷梦 冬日的太阳温暖人间(讚美的語言好似香水 勸誡的開示好比甘露 善美的歌曲扣人心弦 勵志的文章讓人上進 滴水的功用生長萬物 和風的吹拂清涼人心 洪鐘的鳴聲驚醒迷夢 冬日的太陽溫暖人間) Words of praise are fragrant perfumes. Sincere admonition is nourishing nectar. Inspirational songs are heart-gripping. Inspirational writings are motivating. Water droplets cultivate lives. Soft breezes caress and soothe the heart. A big bell's chime awakens dreamers. The winter sun warms the world.
