Divine Fall: Ransom

Desire is only human, but it must be kept in check. Give in to greed, and you will destroy yourself.

The world is governed by cause and effect. Humanity follows Heaven, Heaven follows Earth, Earth follows the Dao, and the Dao follows nature. Nature has a spirit, which passes judgment according to the will of Heaven. All lives are bound together, forming cause and effect of their own.

When cause and effect are thrown into chaos, disasters descend and heaven and earth tremble.

Desire disturbs the heart; integrity preserves its purity. Greed disrupts cause and effect, but the original order can still be restored.

Greed in one person is a small thing; when everyone is greedy, Heaven cannot be fooled.

White silk can be dyed with madder, but madder-dyed silk cannot be printed on.

The good do not fear your deception. Though goodness is not evil, that does not mean it can be deceived.
