Living in a life full with traps, we will sometimes be\r\nfeeble in mind and easy to lost our life into those traps which is normally called\r\n“The Four Bad Habits”. Hence, we need to have critical wisdom, powerful will\r\nand extraordinary energy in order to get through the difficulties, failure in\r\nwork or affection. Being on the way of life, we, occasionally, have to know how\r\nto accept and forgive the wrongness that are made by others on us. It is\r\nbelieved that a generous heart, a true recognization and a healthy living may\r\navoid our wasting lifetime. Going to the end, the Senior Venerable replied to\r\nparticipants some questions referring to the discussing topic. Additionally,\r\nthere was a talk “Don’t abandon me, Mum!” occurring in the evening of the same\r\nday.
