I am telling you responsibly that if good things are given to you directly, you won't be able to receive them. You must first go through hardships, betrayal, deception, cut off innocence, kill childishness, grind away arrogance and self-righteousness. Stop expecting anything from human nature, withdraw your dependence on others. Take back the energy that belongs to yourself.


Without experiencing these, you will never see through the illusions in your original value system in your lifetime, nor will you cherish it. So even if good fortune comes, you cannot keep it.
Introspect, self-awaken, see the world, see all beings, see yourself. After you deeply awaken, strive unceasingly to improve yourself and uphold virtue to carry the world; only then will good luck truly begin.
