What are the three cardinal principles of welfare, wisdom and virtue enshrined in the scriptures ?
"Sarvaloka Hite Ratah" (one should be engaged in the welfare of all). "Sarvajnanopasampannah" (one should master all forms of knowledge), "Sarvasamudhita Gunaihi" (one should be the embodiment of all virtues). The key to these three cardinal principles, namely well-being, wisdom and virtue, is contained in three P's - purity, patience and perseverance.
