Lynn J Kelly provides us with another “pearl of wisdom” with her post below. As she says:

“We want to train ourselves to avoid acting (or speaking) when we are angry or displeased. The mind state comes before the action and can be worked with before any harming occurs. The Buddha put this practice first on his list of guidelines for training laypeople because it may be the primary way we harm ourselves and others.”

May we avoid harming ourselves and others more skillfully today. _/\_
