Great achievers never help others lightly; most are habitually indifferent to life and death. This is not cold-bloodedness, but reverence for human nature. Blindly helping may cultivate opponents, and wrongful kindness can breed resentment. The instinct of the weak is not gratitude, but jealousy and complaints. When you elevate someone to a height they do not belong to, their ignorance will ultimately destroy you, leading to a falling-out.

Therefore, do not bring friends along the journey; instead, find friends on the road. Not easily disturbing others’ luck is a practice to avoid self-wear. The higher the level of a person, the more indifferent they are, because they only revere the laws of nature, not trapped in emotions. A master does not follow the wrong path, nor does a doctor knock on the door without reason. True wisdom is never cheap charity; people cannot be taught by words alone, and one lesson is enough to teach someone.

If you view the world with compassion, all beings suffer. If you see worldly affairs through cause and effect, no one is to be pitied. Fate comes with luck, and when luck runs out, it’s destiny. Focus on your own lessons, do not interfere with others’ answers; maintaining boundaries is the best way to help, and minding your own business is the greatest kindness.
