1. If your parents are unfilial, worshiping gods will be of no use.
If a person is unfilial to his parents, even three sticks of incense a day will be useless, and the gods will not bless him.
2. It is useless to make friends when brothers are at odds with each other.
If brothers and sisters cannot live in harmony within the family, how can they know how to help others, care for others, and gain true friends outside the family?
3. Bad intentions and bad Feng Shui are useless
A person’s destiny is indeed in his own hands. If you are kind-hearted, your family will have good luck. With a harmonious atmosphere, your group will also be healthy and happy. The so-called company and family feng shui are good. So, what is the foundation of feng shui? Your intentions, if you have bad intentions, even if your home is a dragon's den, it will become a rat's den in three years. Do you believe it?
4. Reading is useless if you behave improperly
If a person's inner achievements are not correct, even if he reads poetry and books, it will only be used to support his own selfish desires and greed. Why should he read more? What's the benefit?
5. Being arrogant and erudite is useless
If a person thinks he is knowledgeable and looks down on others, he will be arrogant, which is definitely contrary to the nature of knowledge. A true scholar is one who is profound and humble.
6. Acting eccentricly, being clever is useless
If we do things without following moral principles and rules, and only rely on our own cleverness, we will often suffer the consequences. Because the principles of life and work between heaven and earth will not change due to time and space.
7. When luck is not in your favor, it is useless to ask for anything.
When you do not have good luck, if you insist on doing and asking for something, you will tire yourself and others. Assess the situation and take advantage of it. When the time is not ripe, you must first enrich yourself and wait for the opportunity. Do things according to the circumstances.
8. It is useless to take people’s wealth without giving away
If we use illegal means to obtain wealth, even if we use money to help others and rescue others in the future, we will not be able to make up for our own morality. The one above is missing. A person should be sensible about wealth and do it (a gentleman loves money and gets it in a proper way).
9. Taking medicine is useless at the expense of vitality
Health is the foundation of everything for a person, so you should cherish your body. A person must live a disciplined life. He must not stay up late, overeat, ignore all these, act arbitrarily, and his body will be severely damaged. It will be too late to buy expensive medicines at that time.
10. Sexual evil and unbridled desires are useless.
If a person indulges his desires and does whatever he wants, no matter how thick his ancestors' moral virtues are, it will be useless, and disaster will come sooner or later. So never do it (don’t do good deeds because they are small, don’t do them because evil is small. Yin Zhi means Yin De)
