This Buddha conduct means that when a senior Tao relative assigns a task, regardless if it’s big or small, near or far, you must complete the task. Once the task is complete, you must clearly report the result and not be vague. As a junior cultivator, when you are on a mission, remember to sincerely ask the senior Tao relative for further instruction or advice. Report the outcome to the senior Tao relative shortly upon your return, so they will not be concerned or worried about you. This Buddha conduct reminds cultivators to be loyal and honest with people and be responsible for the delegated task. Furthermore, it teaches the cultivator the proper etiquette of departing and returning. Self-reporting allows everyone to be on the same page and ensures that all areas are covered.

Spiritually, many of you came to this life time with a heavenly vow to assist God in saving other‘s souls.  It’s important to keep your vow wholeheartedly and never forget where you came from. Do your best effort in cultivating and propagating Tao. Through practice you can truly understand the essence of departing and returning.
