Buddhist Precepts Series | Wise and Wholesome Speech

Pat Coffey gave this dharma talk on Feb 14, 2017 at the Insight Meditation Community of Charlottesville.

The Buddha taught the precepts, not as an arbitrary set of rules, but as a crucial part of a skillful path of freedom from suffering. Following the precepts, he taught, leads to sane and joyous living that binds all beings together by cultivating goodheartedness, compassion and restraint. In this talk we investigate the meaning and practice of wise and wholesome speech.
