The main reason why good fortune does not appear and wisdom does not appear is that there are obstacles, that is karmic hindrances. All unvirtuous karma created in the past and this life. This stuff holds us back. What does it create after the hindrance? It creates greed, anger, and delusion(obsession, ignorance). How can people have wisdom when having greed, anger, and delusion? How can there be good fortune? Therefore, the Buddha teaches us to put an end to greed, anger, and delusion and to diligently cultivate precepts,
calmness(samadhi), and wisdom. Precepts and calmness are good fortune, wisdom is prajna.
When letting go of greed, anger, and delusion, good fortune and wisdom will appear. Traditional Chinese medicine talks about
the way of health, and there are no exceptions. Chinese medicine advises us not to lose our temper. When we encounter any frustration. we have to practice endurance. Why? Losing your temper hurts your liver. When you lose your temper, you hurt others less, you hurt others 3 points, and you hurt yourself 7 points. If you calculate this bill carefully, you won't do it because you will suffer too much.

Where does liver disease come from? It comes from fierce liver fire, that is losing temper.
Sadness should not be excessive. The death of parents is the saddest thing in life. There must be restraint in etiquette. Courtesy is to restraint in etiquette. Don't be overly sad, or it will hurt yourself. If you get hurt, your parents will be uneasy, that is unfilial too. So, sorrow hurts your lungs, pneumonia and lung cancer are all related to it.
Hatred hurts the heart. You hate others, of course, others are suffering but damage your own heart first. So, heart disease & hypertension are highly related to hatred.
Annoyance and fear hurt kidneys.
Doubt, blame others, hurt spleen and stomach.
If you want to be healthy and have no problem with your internal organs, you should remember that no grumble, not annoyed, no fear, no more hate, no irritate, no lose your temper.

Look, this is the way of health care in Chinese medicine. It would be even better if you can be positive. Positivity is the cultivation of morality.
So, Chinese medicine also says that benevolence nourishes the liver. We have to be mindful of this. Benevolence is unconditional compassion. Care for others, have mercy on the poor, help others, do good deeds.
A man has a sense of righteousness(not to make others sad), it nourishes his lungs.
Courtesy and happiness nourish the heart. Wisdom nourishes the kidney. Honesty and trust nourishes the spleen and stomach. You see, benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom, and trust. If you can achieve this, your internal organs will be healthy, and you will not get sick. Therefore, we should know this. Do it yourself seriously, you will have a sense of response. Even if your organs are sick, if you are willing to practice according to this rule, you will be healed of your disease naturally.
