#platform/youtube #channel/Master-YongHua #playlist/dharma-glimpses  10 Dharmas in the inter in the active with wholesome minds. This is about when we talk about good people. These are the characteristics for you to decide someone is good. This is so these are characteristics you find for yourself. For example, might be useful to you. You look for let's say a husband. You want a good man for a husband. Don't you have girls? These are criteria. Ain't that cool? Look for employees and you want to trust them. Trustworthy employees. Look for how many of these are hits. They qualify for this. I look for disciples. I look for good disciples. So I look at you and I say, "Uhuh. So you have two out of 10. Wow, that's a good start. And let's see you go to three next six months or not or four, five when you level off." I say, "Uhoh, how much longer before you have to go?" So these are the tips right here. You don't say good people. Good people has characteristics of goodness. Ain't that cool? So what are the characteristics? faith, vigor, renunciation, shame, remorse, absence of greed, absence of anger, nonharming, light ease, and non-laxness. These are superior people that you want to draw near. You May want to use this list to choose who you hang out with, who you want to choose as friend, as teachers, as confidant, as bookkeeper, accountant, attorney. You go into details. They're good because you cultivate. Cultivate here is you cultivation is a Asian concept. cultivation. You're producing something that's good, that's beneficial. That's why we cultivate like we cultivate crops, cultivate rice. Okay? We roll rice and you bring it to accomplishment. The first one is faith. Faith here is the most important thing for goodness. Think about it. Okay? You want to be gooder. It means that your faith is deeper. Just remember that eventually when you see people who are not good and they're troublemakers, you see that they lack in faith. The faith actually not less. They actually begin to decline. Okie dokie. Very insightful to me. Number two, vigor. Vigor is you are relentless. You do more and more and more and more and more. And that's cultivation. That's goodness. Because when you do more with what we do, what we teach you, you're becoming goodter. You cannot become goodter unless you are vigorous. More and more vigorous, not sneak around, try to take shortcuts. There's no such thing. The third one is inunciation. Inuniation here is he's teaching at a hiny level. At least think about it. You renounce your evil thoughts. That's a courses one. It applies to you. Don't worry about others. Look at your coarse thoughts. Your evil thoughts. Evil meaning that such as you self- serving. You want you say as long I get what I want, I don't care. Okay? I if I hurt someone so that I can get some get what I want, it's okay. That's evil. I don't like someone, I will hurt them. That's evil. Attachments is a finer level where inunciation is at able to let go of the attachments because it's not good for you what kind of attachments you have to decide for yourself. So inunciation is that in our temples the way I train you inunciation is when I come to you and said you are being tested of this. I'm warning you. I'm being kind because I know that's your weakness. So in other words, my message to you because when you're at that level, I me my message to you is are you willing to listen to me? Are you willing to let go of this? If not, not my fault. Is it clear? It's you. It's not. It's not there. You have to to be responsible for your own actions. You can't blame me. Four, shame and remorse is fifth. Very important group here with pair here. Shame and remorse. They always come in pairs. Shame is outside. Remorse is inside. Shame because I feel ashamed because I failed you. I'm not going to make excuses. I fail you. Okay? I'm not going to cover it up. I screwed up. I failed. Yes. I'm ashamed of that. I fall short. I did. I could not deliver. I'm ashamed of that. I'm ashamed of my failure. I'm not going to hide it. I'm not going to make excuses. Remorse is that inside. Shame is I admit to you. I Yes, I screwed up. I'm not going to hide it from you. I'm not going to I'm going to try to disguise it. If I know it's wrong, I will admit it because it's evil to hide it. Okay? You have no shame. Meaning that you make excuses. And be careful when I get to you and I say, "Have you no shame? Boy, are you in trouble." I rarely use it. Number five, remorse is that inside you don't feel good about yourself. You tell yourself, "I can be better than this." Unless you have remorse, you cannot be goodter. Is it clear? You have no remorse. You will never be goodter. I want you as adults. Look at your children, your nieces and nephews and you see the ones who will have trouble, you will have trouble with as the one that have no remorse. They are extremely dangerous. Children, adults, same thing. They have no remorse inside. It's not about they confess it or whatever. Okay? It's in their behavior. Atofo.
