Question 17: IS IT CORRECT THAT HAVING LITTLE MERIT MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO ADVISE OTHERS TO PRACTICE AND DO GOOD?Answer: That's correct. The mouths of the wealthy are unyielding and forceful. Those with abundant merit find it easier to advise others to practice and do good, while those with little merit struggle to convince others. However, if we don't help those around usto practice and do good, our own practice may be hindered in the future, facing obstacles and adversities. We need everyone around us to understand and practice doing good so that future generations can grow up in a virtuous environment, and we can practice peacefully in our own homes.Regardless, we must first accumulate substantial merit. Our lives need to upgrade, and we must be able to donate and help those around us in practical ways. When people see our clear merit, they'll be more inclined to listen to our advice on practice and doing good. For now, with little merit, we must be cautious when sharing the Dharma with others to avoid criticism and blame. When merit is scarce, we can only speak to those with noticeably good karmic connections from past lives.#Buddha, #Buddhism, #Buddhist, #Truedharma, #Meditation, #Enlightenment, #Buddhatemple, #TheLawofKarma, #Blessing, #Goodblessing, #Janna, #JannaMonastery, #JannaOrderMonastery, #LawOfKarma, #CauseAndEffect, #UniversalTruth, #KarmicRetribution, #AxiomaticTruth, #PhilosophyOfMind, #SpiritualLogic, #BeliefAndUnderstanding, #FirstPrinciples, #Metaphysics, #ConsciousEvolution, #Mindfulness, #AncientWisdom, #SpiritualGrowth, #EthicsAndMorality, #Transcendence, #CosmicOrder, #WisdomSeeker, #LogicalReasoning, #InnerTransformation, #KarmicLaws, #DharmaInsight, #IntellectualSpirituality, #TruthSeeker, #HigherConsciousness, #LifePhilosophy, #ContemplativePractice, #SoulScience, #MoralPhilosophy, #AwakeningJourney, #DeepThinking, #SpiritualScience, #SystemicThinking, #ExistentialWisdom, #MindsetShift, #UniversalPrinciples
