“When we are proud, we feel jealous and inimical. We fail to consider anybody in front of us. (We consider all but ourselves as worthless). Those who have opulence are prone to be proud, therefore they are immersed in the daknes of ignorance. As a result, they fail to grasp the sayings of the wise. Although they hear them, they are unable to understand their true meanings.”
