There is a rule that the master has to work hard for three years before shaving his head. Many people came and were disappointed because they couldn't stand his hard work. The Taoist master is determined, brave and diligent, working during the day, picking tea on the mountain, growing vegetables and collecting rice in the field; Practice late into the night at night, get up at 3 am for early class, go out to work at 7 am, rest for only one hour at noon, and continue to go out to the slope in the afternoon.

He hopes that all his disciples can become monks, so as to promote Buddhism and benefit students. Among them, there are many Buddhists who are good at drinking, lead by example and have good intentions. The disciples of the French generation are brilliant.

Master Tao often teaches his disciples to be honest and act according to the book. A common saying for disciples is "No pains, no gains".

The dharma-protecting layman has no respect for the mage.

Pray for the Taoist priest to be healthy, live a long life, and benefit all beings.
