The ethical code "Do not be stingy or greedy" serves as a reminder of the virtues of generosity and communal well-being. Rooted in empathy and guided by the wisdom of the tribe's elders, this principle encourages individuals to share resources and opportunities in a spirit of collective prosperity. It's not just about material wealth; it's about fostering an environment of mutual respect and kindness, where the needs of the community are placed above individual gain. This code is a cornerstone for building a harmonious and equitable society.
