Right Speech -The New Year's Reflection






T
o cultivate the beauty of mind is to speak wisely. It is important part of our lives. To welcome the New Year, let quote the Buddha's Words on Right Speech:

If speech has five marks, then it is well spoken and not badly spoken; what are these five marks.
  1. It is speech that is timely,
  2. True,
  3. Gentle,
  4. Purposeful and speak with the mind of
  5. Loving Kindness.
Reflect on that and use that as a mirror to cultivate our minds. Happy New Year!
