All must enjoy prosperity. All virtues must be cultivated. All Knowledge must be acquired. Your first objective must be to work for the welfare of society. Next, you must try to make others happy. Last comes the acquisition of the wealth of spiritual wisdom. Therefore, first and foremost, you must strive relentlessly for the progress of society. You must work hard and incessantly to promote the welfare of the community.
