- It emphasizes that fortune comes from frugality, virtue from humility, worry from greed, anger from desire, fault from recklessness, and sin from inability to endure, along with the need to avoid seeing or speaking of others' mistakes and to be cautious about following bad company.
- It also advises against speaking unhelpful words, respecting elders, treating those below you with love, and discerning between the wise and the foolish.
- Finally, it conveys the lesson of treating others well first, that harm done will eventually come back to you, and that one should not rely on money or power but rather be frugal.
○ Blessings arise from frugality, virtue from humility, worry from greed, anger from avarice, faults from recklessness, and sin from intolerance.
○ Be careful with your eyes, so as not to see the wrongdoings of others, be careful with your mouth, so as not to speak of the shortcomings of others, and be careful with your body, so as not to follow bad friends.
○ Do not speak idly of words that are not beneficial, and do not argue pointlessly about things that are not related to you.
○ Respect the elderly and treat your inferiors with love. Clearly distinguish between wisdom and foolishness, and be generous to the ignorant.
○ Do not seek to be treated well by others, but treat others well first. Do not expect to be treated well because you have treated yourself well, and do not dwell on things that have passed.
○ If you harm others, it will eventually come back to you. If you pursue money too much, you will become a slave to money. If you rely on power, you will lose your fortune instead. If you do not save, your family will eventually be ruined.
