We must develop and manifest the following sixteen qualities:
1) Not be carried away by hatred, racism, anger, resentment, revenge, lust, greed, and uncontrolled five senses.
2) Not lie, always tell the truth.
3) Know how to distribute one's wealth fairly.
4) Know how to forgive.
5) Only have children with one's lawful wife and be faithful to her.
6) Not have illicit sexual relations outside of marriage.
7) Know how to keep one's mind pure and one's body perfectly clean.
8) Show no enmity towards anyone (humans, animals, plants).
9) Know how to be simple and humble.
10) Know how to care for the needs of one's servants or subordinates.
11) Do not consume meat, fish, or eggs.
12) Do not consume drugs or stimulants such as alcohol, coffee, tea, or cigarettes.
13) Do not gamble.
14) Always benevolent toward all living beings, celestial beings, human beings, animals, and plants, the devotee does not seek quarrels with anyone.
A friend of all living beings, he has no enemies. Serene, he is endowed with all virtues and does not torment any living being, including insects.
The man of perfect knowledge makes no distinction between all human beings—white, black, yellow, red, or mixed race—whom he loves with equal love and sees with the same eye. For him, they are all equal on the spiritual plane, for it is the soul that he sees, not the material body. A liberated being, what he truly is, has no enemies, for he considers all human beings, without exception, as his brothers and sisters, and takes pleasure in walking with them on the path of God's love.
15) Let us love one another, regardless of our origin, skin color, place of birth, physique, language, or culture, with unconditional love.
Let us also love in the same way all land and aquatic animals, as well as all plants, from the blade of grass to the large tree that shelters numerous living beings, such as ants, caterpillars, butterflies, bees, birds, monkeys, etc., for each of them is also a soul incarnated in a specific body. Let us ensure that no harm comes to them, and let us protect them.
