小朋友！不要想如何升官？如何發財？怎樣能在世界上有名望？怎樣能在國際上出風頭？應該要想怎樣才能為人類謀幸福，怎樣才能為人類造利益。我們是幫助世界和平，幫助眾生安樂。不是在世界上爭名奪利，勾心鬥角，互相陷害。若是為目的而不擇手段，就是造罪業。

Young friends! Don't focus your thoughts on getting a promotion, making money, winning fame in the world, or becoming a world celebrity. Instead, think about how to work for the welfare of human beings, how to benefit humanity. We want to promote world peace and help living beings be happy. We don't want to fight for fame and benefit, or plot against each other. If you get what you want by hook or by crook, you are creating offenses.

錢積集多了，它會害死人。最近洛杉磯發生一件富人被害的新聞。這個財主（美國人），很有錢，但行為放蕩不羈，因為錢財的糾紛，被人害死。他活著的時候，因為有錢，造了很多罪孽，才有如此的下場，雖然有萬貫家產，但是帶不去一分錢。各位想一想！這有什麼價值？有什麼意義？

Accumulating wealth can be lethal. Recently in Los Angeles, a man was killed. This man was very rich, but he was not careful in his conduct. He was killed due to a conflict over money. Since he was rich, he committed a lot of offenses when he was alive, and that is why he came to such an end. Although he had property worth millions, he couldn't take a penny with him when he died. Think about it: Is there any meaning in such an existence?

所以在世界上要作有智慧的人，不要作愚癡的人。有智慧的人，對於事理分析清清楚楚，對於善惡辨別明明白白，絕對不做顛倒事。愚癡的人，終日求名、求利、求地位、求權勢，看不破，放不下，見利忘義，盡做些虧心的生意，醉生夢死，糊塗一輩子 我們在這世界上要幫助困苦的人，伸出援手，拯救他們於水深火熱，所謂「為善最樂」，這是助人為快樂之本。

We want to be wise people, not fools. A wise person understands principles, distinguishes clearly between good and evil, and never does deluded things. A fool spends his days chasing after fame and gain, social status, and power. He fails to see their true nature and relinquish his pursuit. He forgets about justice when he sees a chance to benefit himself. He often does things that go against his conscience, and is muddled-as if drunk or dreaming-all his life. We ought to help these pathetic people. We should give them a hand and save them from the deep waters and scorching fires. It is said, "Doing good  is the greatest joy in life." Helping others brings happiness.
