When practising Buddhism, one must guard against obsession.
When reciting Buddhist scriptures, one must not fall asleep.
It is important to be neither arrogant, nor overly humble; to live life and cultivate the mind in accordance with karmic conditions, and to act in accordance with karmic conditions in all matters.
With regard to the notion of acting in ‘accordance with conditions’, it is necessary to understand it, reconcile it, conquer it, and break from it before emptiness can be realised.
学佛不能执着，念经不能睡着。
人不能高傲，又不能太过于低下；
随缘生活，随缘修心，一切随缘。
理解随缘，化解随缘，
战胜随缘，解脱随缘，
才能证得空性。
– Master Jun Hong Lu, Words of Wisdom Volume 7
