405 It’s a Torrent! Get up the Pole

“It’s a Torrent! Get up the Pole”

There are two kinds of torrents in life.
The rising torrent,
And the falling torrent.

In either case,
Don’t allow yourself to be swallowed by it.
Hold firmly to your pole.
Operate it in such a way that it does not shatter.

The pole represents righteous values.
A person without righteous values,
Cannot make righteous decisions.

Righteous values exist,
Whether or not they are rooted in truth.
Materialistic profit or loss is not righteous.
Values are the standard by which things are judged.
Wrong values lead to wrong results,
Righteous values lead to righteous results.

If you are skillful with a pole,
You can climb up slowly,
And when you descend, you can do so slowly.
In life it is necessary to control ourselves.
A pole is our righteous values that allow us to control ourselves.

Come on! A raging torrent is coming! Get up the pole.
