Through sharing, I believe all can learn something valuable.
Be the " normal human being " is what human being must do.
My dear friends, any view for part six nos 10 to nos 14, please share. If you shy then it is ok.

High qualification but poor character

The scholar Mr. Wong expelled from the university because he had been found guilty of owning child pornography videos. His gross misconduct led him losing the scholarship as well. He suppose to be the teacher after graduation.
He had also been sentenced to six months' imprisonment by the UK court. He has also been disqualified from working with children.
This 23years old is not suitable for teaching kids because he never show good examples.
Nowadays, people with high qualification not necessarily they are people of good character unlike ancient time.
What is your view?

Tai Shang Gan Ying Pian

let's study part six of Tai Shang Gan Ying Pian.
Nos 3,
With brutality they do harm and damage.
Insidiously they injure the good and the law-abiding.
Stealthily they despise their superiors and parents.
Nos 4,
They disregard their seniors and rebel against those whom they serve.
Nos 5,
They deceive the uninformed.
They slander their fellow-students.
My view:
Some bad people always like to do cruel things to others or things out of greed, hatred and craziness. They always like to hurt others out of jealousy. They never show respect to their own parents, superiors. Their mindset totally do not have any elements of goodness. This type of people not only bring misfortunes to themselves but also cause a lot of troubles to the society and their own country and the whole world.
My dear friends, I hope you are not this type of people. If yes, then you have to quickly delete this type of corrupted mindset, do not wait any longer.
What is your view about nos 3, 4 and 5?

Tai Shang Gan Ying Pian

To prevent misfortunes, we must know the Description of Evil-Doers and do our best not to do that.
Let's us study the part six, the description of evil-doers. Remember try your best not to do all these to prevent misfortunes come to you.
Part six,
Tai Shang Gan Ying Pian said:
Nos 1:" There are some people whose behavior is unrighteous."
Nos 2:" Their deportment is irrational. In evil they delight."
My view:
In this world, some people always have the evil mindset, they always like to do immoral things that we can read all their nonsenses in daily newspapers.
These people think that they have high capabilities after doing all the evil things. I see so many people had eaten their own fruits. These people indeed were the most pitiful people, they had never realize that every action has the reaction. Because of that, they do what they like but finally they are the own have to face the music and have the great suffering.
The great reminder is to adopt the mindset of righteousness.
Do you have anything to say about nos 1 and 2?

Do not treat the kid as king or queen

Yesterday while I was about to enter into the train station, I heard the conversation as follow:
The small kid about 7years old talked to the mother loudly :" Mom, carry for me the water bottle. "
Mother:" How can I carry for you, you should be independent. If you don't want to carry the water bottle, then no water for you to drink. "
The mother was very persistent and never spoilt the child. This was ready the live example indeed. This mother knew the ways to cultivate the kid. So, if parents spoil the kids, then they will surely getting some " awards " in future.
Let's see an other example that the other mom who always spoil her kid, what award she had received.
The real story was happened in China. There was the parents who always spoil their kids , they bought anythings that the kid had demanded. One day, the mother prepared the cup of hot water for the kid in the morning. The kid simply carried the cup and drank. The kid was so angry and uttered the words : How come you give me the hot water, you want to kill me, isn't?.
Immediately the kid poured the hot water towards his mother.
Who's faults? I think parents needed to be blamed for that. So, please do not treat your kids like kings or queens.
See you, have the nice day.

Tai Shang Gan Ying Pian

Let's us study the part 2 of Tai Shang Gan Ying Pian---The great reminder.
" apparent that heaven and earth are possessed of crime-recording spirits.
According to the lightness or gravity of his transgressions,the sinner's term of life is reduced.
Not only is his term of life reduced, but poverty also strikes him.
Often he meets with calamity and misery.
His neighbors hate him.
Punishments and curses pursue him.
Good luck shuns him.
Evil stars threaten him;
and when his term of life
comes to an end, he perishes.
------------------End of part two------------------------------------------------

That means whatever we do good or bad, we can not escape from the reward or bad luck.
Our term of life can be reduced if we do many sins.
Misfortunes always fall on bad people.
This is the great reminder. So please do many good deeds to prevent bad luck coming. Everyday I read newspapers , it seems that bad people are arrested and charged in courts to face the music.
