Passage 13

In English

When you walk on the road, your shadow may fall on bad patches like drains, garbage, etc., but you are not affected by it. You should proceed unmindful of the path of the shadow. So also, you must follow your heart with good feelings unmindful of obstacles that may appear to come in the way. You should practice truth. You should be grateful to a person that came to your rescue in times of crisis. You should not forget the help done by others. There are two things that you should forget. Forget the harm done by others to you; otherwise you will be harboring vengeance to retaliate. Secondly, forget the help you did to others as that will make you expect reward from them and result in disappointment when it is not forthcoming. By observing these two norms, the purity of your heart will be maintained.
