HOLY RULE
Listen with the ear of your heart
...speak the truth with heart and
tongue.
If people curse you, do not curse them back but bless them instead.
Do not grumble or speak ill of others.
Place your hope in God alone.
...devote yourself often to prayer.
...harbor neither hatred nor jealousy
of anyone...
Respect the elders...
Pray for your enemies.
If you have a dispute with someone,
make peace with him before the sun
goes down.
