What we do in everyday life contains virtues long accumulated in consciousness. Virtue is our nature, an inherent quality. We do not try to act against our own virtues. But through setbacks, lessons help us recognize our qualities, whether through education, moral training, or teachings handed down from ancient times…
Everyone has beautiful and wholesome qualities within. Through upheavals, repression, and delusion, we may “forget” our true nature, but that does not mean we lack those beautiful qualities. The path of spiritual cultivation is where you practice returning to yourself, to your pure, natural essence—the beauty of giving—which is also the virtues of the sun.
