Accompanying wealth & high social status with arrogance leaves trails of sins
Being arrogant is the biggest hurdle for any practitioner. A wealthy man who is in high social status needs to beware of being over-pride, over-prejudice and over- ego center. Suspicion, fear, and arrogance set one apart from the ordinary people. Then, the rich man must be more cautious not to have an arrogant attitude towards people.
As one cultivates more, one would observe more mistakes upon oneself. Therefore, a saint has many mistakes; a common man has few mistakes; an arrogant one has no mistake.
Being rich is all people’s dream, but the richness must obtain the righteous way. Having much money should be handle virtuously, otherwise, it might cause a decline in value ethics and sometimes bring disaster into the family.
