Things you must give up

The first thing you have to do to take good care of yourself is that you give up things that shall shorten your life. They are the inner desire and the evil of your environment.

Your inner desire includes such greed as eating, lust of flesh, sleep and excessive talk plus being too sensitive upon such feeling as joy, rage, worry, thought, sorrow, fear and surprise. Those seven feelings are called greed of seven sentiment.

There are four evils of your environment. They are wind, cold, heat and moisture. You must control your inner desire and keep out four evils of your environment. If you do both correctly you'll live out your natural span of life with healthy body and mind.
