Earth, water, wind, and fire are elements of the universe. Rivers and oceans are vigors of the Earth. Gossip and conflicts are phenomena of society. Joy, anger, sadness, and happiness are expressions of emotions. Parting sorrows and joyful unions are a natural part of life. Old age, sickness, death, and rebirth are the cycle of life. Good and bad karmic retributions are the rules of cause and effect. Wealth and poverty are blessings of life. Happiness and good fortune are the basic goals in life. Success and fame are the results of hard work and dedication. Hatred and jealousy are the poisons of emotion. Loyalty, dutifulness, benevolence, and kindness are the pillars of ethics. Formation, abiding, deterioration, and extinction are impermanence. Propriety, justice, honesty, and honor are the basis of a human being. Compassion, wisdom, vow, and practice are the essence of attainment. Patience and precepts are ways of self-discipline. Faith, understanding, practice, and realization are steps of cultivation. Shame and repentance are the keys of mind-purification. Kindness, compassion, joy, and equanimity are the spirits of a bodhisattva.
