What is the moral lesson in the parable of the seed sower?
There is no moral lesson in the parable of the sower. An explanation of the parable is given in Matthew 13:12-23, Luke 8:11-15 and Mark 4:14-20. This parable is about the preaching of the word - the planting of the seed of the gospel and the bearing of fruit in the hearts of people. A parable is an illustration in order to explain a truth, to make the truth easier to understand. A parable puts something familiar alongside something unfamiliar to help people to understand spiritual truth by using everyday objects and relationships. A parable is similar to a fable or an allegory or a proverb but parables are generally concerned with spiritual matters.
What is the moral of Ceres and Proserpina?

It also emphasizes the importance of maintaining hope and resilience in the face of adversity, as seen through Ceres' determination in searching for her daughter. Ultimately, it underscores the idea of transformation and rebirth, as Proserpina spends part of the year in the underworld but is allowed to return to the surface, symbolizing the changing of seasons.

What is the moral lesson of parable of the weeds?
The parable of the 'wheat and the weeds' is not so much a 'moral' story, as a prophecy. This is what it says: (Matthew 13:24-30) ". . . The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field. But while everyone was sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat, and went away. When the wheat sprouted and formed heads, then the weeds also appeared. The owner's servants came to him and said, 'Sir, didn't you sow good seed in your field? Where then did the weeds come from?''An enemy did this,' he replied."The servants asked him, 'Do you want us to go and pull them up?' "'No,' he answered, 'because while you are pulling the weeds, you may uproot the wheat with them. Let both grow together until the harvest. At that time I will tell the harvesters: First collect the weeds and tie them in bundles to be burned; then gather the wheat and bring it into my barn.'"(NIV)Jesus is here prophesying the spiritual conditions that would exist on the earth by the time God's judgment period arrives. The meaning of the prophecy is given by Jesus later in the chapter at: Matthew 13:36-43Jesus often used 'agricultural' illustrations, since Israel was an agricultural community for the most part, so this information would be easily understood.The 'weeds' spoken of are most probably "bearded darnel"(Lolium temulentum), a species of the grass family whose seeds are light weight and poisonous because of a fungus growing within them. (If darnel seeds become mixed with wheat kernels after the harvest, this can have a serious effect upon the eater. Dizziness, convulsions and even death)."Darnel' has a few interesting traits that lend themselves to this illustration.When they are young, they look very similar to 'wheat'....like a 'counterfeit wheat'. It's hard to tell them apart until they 'mature', at which time, their smaller black seeds make their HEADS wave high above the true wheat, which is full of heavy greenish seeds, causing it's heads to bow down. The 'weeds' then are easily spotted and eliminated.Jesus was telling his disciples that over the centuries, apostasy(backed by satan) ('counterfeit Christianity') would move in and 'muddy the waters' of the true Christianity Jesus started,(2 Peter 2:1 & 2) and that for many years, it would all grow together(2 Corinthians 11:13-15), as can be noted in history, 'until the conclusion'... God's Judgment day... arrived, and the angels would start the 'harvest work' . AT that time, the 'empty headed' darnel (fake Christianity) would be standing out, haughtily waving prominently in the breeze. At the same time, there would also be people filled with GOOD fruitage, humbly speaking out for TRUE Christianity, who would clearly stand out as different, solidly obedient to God's word (Daniel 12:4, Matthew 24:31, Matthew 7:21-23, John 17:16), and they would survive the end of the system into God's new world. (Proverbs 2:21-22)(Psalms 37:11,29)
Do you create your own destiny or is fate involved?
Fate and luck is a fairy tale, it doesn't exist. Do the fruits on your tree grow as per luck? Or they depend on the seed you plant? You know that if you plant roses, you will not get tulips. Therefore, just like you know the flower depends on the seed, you must realize your destiny depends on your deed. Destiny is not a matter of chance. It's a matter of choice. We have to choose our actions. As per our actions, good or bad, our morals, our ethics, our thoughts, our life shapes to be what we want it to be. And ultimately, if we want to be liberated from the cycle of death and rebirth, then we must realize that we are the Divine Soul. Then we will be liberated from all misery and sorrow. We will be united with the Divine.

Moral lesson of the emperor's seed?
The Emperor's Seed is an inspiring story about honesty, about integrity. In a capsule, it tells of an emperor about to "retire" and decided to choose his successor among the young people in the empire. He gave each of them one seed and told them to make it grow and come back a year later. After a year, all the youth, except a boy named Ling, came back with all sorts of big and beautiful plants. Ling had only an empty pot to show. The emperor chose him as his successor. Why? Only Ling had the integrity, the honesty to tell the emperor that he "failed" to nurture the plant. Unknown to all of them, the emperor had given them boiled seeds which, of course, would not grow. If the stakes are high and lying promises to bring us rewards, how many of us are willing to tell the truth?
