You must exercise constant watchfulness over your feelings and reactions. You must keep out selfishness, envy, anger, greed and other such evil tendencies from entering your minds. These are nets which entrap you. These vices overwhelm and subdue your holiness, so that you cannot be influenced any longer. Then you will forget yourself and behave like an individual caught in frenzy. You will blabber as your tongue dictates, without regard to the effect - good or evil. You will engage your hands in work that the hands favour. Be aware and keep them in control! If you carefully discriminate, you can be recognised by the good company you keep, the good works you delight in and the good words you utter.
