Ours is a world of advanced science
with a high degree of materialism. It is generally held that seeking
material gratification is the sole aim of life. To this end, man has
become selfish and mercenary-minded, making, making no distinction
between good and evil, and paying no attention to the virtues of moral
etiquette and righteousness, sense of honour and sense of shame.
This tendency has dealt a severe blow to the spiritual morality
that has upheld the peace and happiness of human society. Hardly a day
passes without one reading in the daily press reports on such crimes
as robbery, arson, murder, rape, drug abuse etc. Such sins and crimes
against heavenly principles and humanity are not confined to a
particular time and place, but are a world-wide phenomenon. All these
testify to the decline of Morality.
The religion of Morality follows the good virtues of Taoism,
Confucianism, Buddhism, Christianity and Islam, and at the same time,
also worships the various Sages of the Moral Uplifting Society and
observes the precepts and practices of The Ten
Principles and The Eight Precepts.
