Do not be a ' termite fat' .

Who would not want to act as a " termite fat" people who want to have until forget the correct . Patriarch said " Beat the devil in mind "

The authors would like to express sorrow King PJ Patriarch . The chapter draws some of the precious teachings of the missionaries came forth herein .

"The concern that Yom Kippur is not rich . Real riches can not in good faith If you look carefully will see that . Bless the exception of carrying out the fraud. So it is not that way at the time. But it does not damage the poor because of their corruption , both personal and collective. And intent on a career as a precaution, I would like to set up their own hierarchy. Those carrying out the fraud. To be rich is like " termites fat" because it bites pillar with cap greenhouse . Termite bites house the more fat you. House was near collapse , only to It may , therefore generating a complete collapse to Poon added. Because composite action taken in good faith and not behave like a termite fat ... " .

As seen commonly in Thailand. The rich , yielding a " Termite fat" seemed to be growing . Lots of people would not be successful . It was great I have a lot of money . What social prestige Is willing to make all the way to the wealth of these. Without interest Stilt houses or housing cap are eaten every day ... because . But what they do "Will " , disregarding what the public will " lose" to see the corruption . Rich quickly Was hesitant in good faith ... they do that . Patriarch He taught that people are born with passion, craving and karma ... it's no wonder that we humans have a need to endlessly Also, most people tend to love and comfort . And pursuing to the propagators ... it makes people like us. I usually prefer shortcut shortcut I have wanted to have ... deceit. Corruption to wealth So that the expanded quickly ... which is very sad .

Who would not want a rich " fat wood " Patriarch taught that "when winning the devil in her heart now. She did not do anything outside, " we must practice . Mental development itself often Tell yourself often that human suffering was beyond endurance . Wealth should be acquired by fair and honest , we do not just negligence. not idle It has been firmly set up their own ... if you win we will not have to go to hell. Do not be caught up in the paranoia, can not eat can not sleep because of fear goodies such debilitating fear of being exposed . Feared arrest I was betrayed fear of being punished as " termites fat" how to be happy . When the house was about to collapse from the pole to the house disintegrated . Of hollow partition hollow ... fat boy richer harmful to both themselves and the people who are sharing the same roof ...

Patriarch He also taught that "How goes the desire and need is to learn to always be the frequent " and " estate of the miser . Despite it 's dead . Because it is not beneficial to oneself and others "who desire to be rich . Peace and sustainability will need to recognize . Share to know ... because it helps us recognize the sacrifices reduction would not have wanted to own or have possession ... when the "our" reduce the "us " is to start small . into society ... competition Scams scramble trade. Scramble to snatch market share . Compete for customers Scramble to make profit ... Would become a society that is complementary livelihood . Share with a generous helping each other ... If we try to consider. Remediation millionaires , the great grandfather of the two persons is Warren Buffett, go to your uncle, Bill Gates donated the property more than 95 % to charity , because he believes. "Those who have I have a lot to give , "Bill Gates has always said that to make him happy ... if the enormous wealth to build a truly happy ... two of the remediation millionaires . Almost all of their assets would not donate to a certain charity .

Enormous wealth Can not buy everything you want. Because the needs of our people is of limited scope . And power , both good and bad ... I do not want to fall into hell every day. Need to make a living honestly. As spending wisely Share knowledge and contribute to the public ... is because "ignorance" wood lot fatter . If consciousness does not " know " that what they are doing will affect the future. Obesity those termites would not dare do the bishops . He taught that karma . "Everyone must take responsibility for their own lives to stop to let other people do not. People do it to a child or adult . It is because of their deeds . Who knows or appreciates it or not. Males make themselves feel good. People who do not like Disorderly conduct as a bully thug It is the wicked for their own lives. Who knows whether or not Brant made itself felt evil. May be labeled an offense to others by convincing others to misunderstand. But do not fool yourself ... " .
