76 : Universal Goodness People attending a temple-fair end up leaving the temple littered with garbage. The more fairs a temple organizes, the dirtier the temple becomes. Resident monks and novices cannot possibly keep up with the task of keeping the temple clean. Unfortunately, each time a person litters the temple, he is earning demerit and will have to reap its ill consequences. Politeness and humility are attractive attributes, and everyone should cultivate them. These attributes make one endearing. People are more inclined to give one a hand should one ever need it. One’s boss is more inclined to look upon one favorably. These attributes in a Buddhist monk inspires faith, admiration, and respect in the laity. Conclusion • Impoliteness is expressed in the way one dresses, speaks and conducts oneself. One’s personal appearance is unkempt. Impoliteness leads to fights among males and sexual harassment for females. • Fights and sexual harassment lead to many social problems. Impoliteness breeds aggressiveness, criminal tendency and sexual misconduct.
