Live together in harmony and love -- the old and young people should be in harmony
A teacher of completeness is discovered through selfless instruction, which reveals one's own limitations and sustains knowledge. Teaching must be an act of giving, like a waterwheel passing water onward; hoarding knowledge stops its flow. Discipline is essential, and fault lies within, not in others. Generational divides are natural; elders should find self-satisfaction and allow the young their path. Societal definitions of age are shifting downward, yet the young possess equal or greater capacity, endurance, and education. Therefore, youth must be brought forward to teach and lead, sharing their perspectives on problems and solutions. Experienced teachers must guide new instructors harmoniously under one framework.
"The waterwheel does not drink its own water; it gives it onward."
"We must learn to give the key to our treasure to the young people before they declare us disabled."
